Has the picture of Lop Nur looking for someone been exposed?

The picture exposure of Lop Nur looking for the lost person.

According to the police's report on the 28th, a self-driving motorcade set off from Dunhuang on the 22nd and entered Ruoqiang Nature Reserve without approval. On the 26th, four people in the car lost contact. On the 27th, the lost vehicle was found, three people showed no signs of life, and 1 person was missing.

Insiders pointed out that in Lop Nur National Wild Camel Nature Reserve, the summer temperature is extremely high, and the surface temperature can reach about 70 degrees Celsius. In this place prone to extreme weather, it is too hasty to rush forward without adequate preparation.

According to the rescue team, there was only one car and four people. Most of the people crossing the no-man's land in Lop Nur are Sichuan-made SUVs, mostly after 90. They didn't all know each other, and they probably contacted each other privately, so they went on their way without much communication and preparation.

They drove in from Aksai County around Dunhuang, bypassed the nature reserve Kazi and the public security checkpoint in Dunhuang Ya Dan Scenic Area, and sneaked into Lop Nur no man's land. During the driving of the motorcade, the vehicles in front were also far away. The last car was trapped in no man's land because of its anchor, but the car in front was never found and left.

Because the surface temperature in the hinterland of the desert is over 70-80 degrees and the weather is very hot, they may not have much drinking water. Four people were trapped in the anchored vehicle, and three people died in the vehicle, of which 1 left the vehicle. Perhaps in despair, he tried to get out of the no-man's land, but eventually disappeared into the vast desert.

When the vehicle in front was about to leave the no-man's land, it was discovered that the vehicle behind did not catch up. Later, they found the police checkpoint in Dunhuang Ya Dan Scenic Area.

Characteristics of Lop Nur

The initial main water supply source of Lop Nur was Tarim River and its tributaries. However, due to the extreme shortage of water resources in Central Asia and the over-exploitation of water resources by local residents, the water quantity of Tarim River is decreasing year by year, and the water quality is gradually deteriorating.

In addition, the problems of overgrazing, salinization and soil erosion in Lop Nur basin have become more and more serious for many years, which also makes the water resources in Lop Nur even more scarce. Therefore, the water resources in Lop Nur area are very limited, and the local ecological environment is also facing great threats.

Lop Nur is remote and almost uninhabited, so it is also called "the last wilderness of China". There are few creatures here, but there are many unique plants, animals and microorganisms.

As the reserves of groundwater are extremely small, the water resources in Lop Nur are very scarce, and only rainwater and water from underground rivers can supply local residents and ecological environment. Although the environment of Lop Nur is extremely harsh, its unique landform and species make it a hot spot in scientific research, archaeology, exploration and other fields.
