目前,在珠峰国家自然保护区内有1476处冰川,覆盖了2030平方公里的面积。
The shrinking glaciers have resulted in swelling 4 glacial lakes and higher river levels downstream, said Kang, who has led several glacier inspection 5 teams.
领导几个冰川监察组的康世昌说,萎缩的冰川导致冰川湖泊增大,更高水平线的河水流向下游。
Remote sensing data showed that the area of a glacial lake in Mt. Qomolangma nature reserve increased from about 100 square kilometers in 1990 to 114 square kilometers in 2013, Kang said.
此外,遥感数据显示,珠峰自然保护区的一个冰川湖已经从1990年的100平方公里扩大到2013年的114平方公里。
