Where is Sanjiangyuan National Park?

Sanjiangyuan National Park is located in the west of China.

Sanjiangyuan National Park is located in the west of China, in the hinterland of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and in the south of Qinghai Province, including three parks: Yangtze River Source, Yellow River Source and Lancang River Source. The total area of the experimental area is 12.3 1 10,000 square kilometers, accounting for 3 1. 16% of the area of Sanjiangyuan National Park, and it is located in the hinterland of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the "roof of the world" of the earth. The geological soil-forming process is young, with strong freeze-thaw erosion and rough soil texture, mainly alpine meadow soil.

Tailu area, located at the northern end of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau climate zone, has changed from subtropical to warm and cool, semi-arid to cold and dry. There are 760 species of vascular plants in the park, belonging to 50 families and 24 1 genera. There are 270 species of wild terrestrial vertebrates, including 62 species of mammals, 0/96 species of birds, 7 species of amphibians and 5 species of reptiles. The establishment of the pilot system of Sanjiangyuan National Park will integrate the functional resources of various departments and regions and implement the restoration of the overall ecosystem, so as to rationalize the protection mechanism of Sanjiangyuan and enhance the scientific nature of protection.

Introduction to the landform of Sanjiangyuan National Park;

Sanjiangyuan National Park is located in the hinterland of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the "roof of the world" of the earth. It is dominated by mountains and valleys. The main mountain ranges include the main vein of Kunlun Mountain and its branches, such as the Hoh Xil Mountain, bayan har Mountain and Tanggula Mountain. The terrain is towering, with an average elevation of more than 4500 meters. In the middle, west and north, there are valley mountains with many wide and flat beaches. Due to the extensive development of frozen soil and poor drainage, a large area of alpine meadows and swamp wetlands dominated by frost heaving hills have been formed.

The geological soil-forming process of Sanjiangyuan National Park is young, with strong freeze-thaw erosion and rough soil texture. The main soil is alpine meadow soil. From southeast to northwest, there is an alpine ecosystem composed of alpine shrubs, alpine meadows, alpine grasslands and alpine deserts. Snow peaks, glaciers, rocks, soil, rivers, lakes, vegetation, wildlife, etc. They all maintain a purely natural development process.

The largest permafrost region on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is located at the source of the Three Rivers, extending from Xidatan on the northern slope of Kunlun Mountain at an altitude of 4,354 meters to Amdo County in northern Xizang Autonomous Region at an altitude of 4,780 meters, with a total length of more than 600 kilometers.
