Introduction to Mount Everest, information about Mount Everest

1. Mount Everest is located in Dingri County, Xizang Autonomous Region, at the junction of China, Tibet and Nepal. It is the main peak of the highest mountain system in the world, with an altitude of 8848.

2. 13m, the highest mountain in the world.

3. In Tibetan, "Mount Qomolangma" means goddess, and "Mount Qomolangma" means Mount Qomolangma, which is affectionately called "the third goddess peak" by local people.

4.? According to legend, a long time ago, there was a vast sea near Mount Everest. There are dense flowers, bees and butterflies at the foot of Mount Everest.

One day, a demon with five heads suddenly came and tried to occupy this beautiful place. It stirred the sea, destroyed the forest, and destroyed flowers and trees.

6. For a time, a rich and fertile place became smoky and devastated.

7. Just as the birds and beasts were cornered and waiting for death, a colorful auspicious cloud floated from the east and turned into five intelligent dakini, exerting infinite magic and subduing the five demons.

8.? Since then, the sea has become calm, and all living here are grateful to worship the fairy. Dakini mothers want to return to heaven after their success, but all sentient beings implore that they can stay forever, be blessed and enjoy peace with all sentient beings.

9. divines finally agreed, and they ordered the sea to recede, so that the forest in the east was dense, the fertile fields in the west, the lush grasslands in the south and the endless pastures in the north.

10.? The five fairies have also become five peaks in the Himalayas, stationed on the earth, and the third fairy is the tallest and most handsome. She is Mount Everest.

1 1. Yun Qi is a special scenery of Mount Everest.

12. As the name implies, Yun Qi is shaped like a flag, floating at the top of Mount Everest, and is known as "the highest weather vane in the world".

13.? It reflects the movement of high-altitude airflow.

14. Experienced meteorologists and mountaineers can use the change of the shape of the flag cloud as a parameter for mountaineering weather forecast.

15. The formation of Yun Qi is related to the special height of Mount Everest and the specific natural geographical environment.

16. Yun Qi disappeared all day. It happens after sunrise, and it is most obvious around noon. After three or four o'clock in the afternoon, due to the strengthening of air convection, the clouds developed rapidly, and the top of the mountain was covered by other clouds, so Yun Qi could not be seen.

17.? Mount Qomolangma is pyramid-shaped. According to scientific calculation, the lowest temperature at the summit is -56 degrees Celsius, which is lower than Mohe, the coldest place in China.

18. The mountains are covered with snow all year round, and glaciers, ice slopes and ice towers can be seen everywhere.

19. The air at the top of the mountain is thin, and there are often strong winds of magnitude 8, and strong winds of magnitude 12 are also common.

20. This area is the activity center of glaciers in Chinese mainland. According to the data, there are 2 17 glaciers in China, covering an area of more than 700 square kilometers, of which several glaciers are more than 20 kilometers long and the longest flannel glacier is 22 kilometers.

2 1.? Mount Everest has the largest number of suspended glaciers, and the scale is relatively small, generally not exceeding one square kilometer, and the ice thickness is one to twenty meters.

22. As the name implies, this kind of glacier is characterized by its end hanging on a steep slope.

23. From a distance, rows of suspended glaciers hang like white shields on steep slopes.

24. Hanging glaciers are generally developed on the remains of ancient glaciers.

25.? During the ancient glacial period, tributary glaciers converged into mainstream glaciers. Due to the differences in ice thickness, running speed and ice erosion ability between the main glacier and the tributary glacier, the main canyon of the glacier was strongly cut down and the sub-canyons had to be hung on the mountainside.

26. At present, due to the shrinking scale of glaciers, the mainstream of glaciers is shrinking or disappearing due to insufficient supply, and tributary glaciers can only cling to steep slopes, and ice collapses often occur due to the collapse of their lower ends.

27. There are also large glaciers-ice bucket glaciers, which are distributed near the top of the mountain or on both sides of the watershed.

28.? Under the action of weathering and ice erosion, the mountain was cut, and the mountain was cut into barrel-shaped valleys, like huge seats, where glaciers developed.

29. Ice bucket glaciers are nearly oval in shape, and some are similar to triangles. The surface of the glacier is concave and slowly inclines to the outlet of the glacier. Some ice bucket glaciers push into the valley and extend in strips, becoming valley glaciers.

30. Where glaciers are concentrated, several valley glaciers are often connected, like a jade dragon coiled among mountains.

3 1.? The low latitude of Mount Qomolangma, the strong solar radiation and the microclimate difference on the glacier surface make the ice difference melt and form many wonderful scenery.

32. Ice mushrooms are big stones supported by thin icicles, some of which can be as high as 5 meters.

33. The ice bridge is like a crystal-transparent link, connecting two cliffs, as if it were intended to "protect the media" for the two cliffs.

34.? The wall is steep and upright, like a huge screen, which makes people afraid.

35.? Ice buds and needles can be seen everywhere, which is a strange and beautiful ornament.

36. The most amazing thing is the ice tower forest.

At an altitude of 5,700 meters to 6,300 meters, it is the world of "Crystal Pagoda"-ice pagoda forest.

38. There are five glaciers on the north slope of Mount Everest.

39.5 kilometers long ice tower forest belt.

40. Milky ice towers have mushroomed, one after another, reaching tens of meters.

4 1.? Some are like magnificent pyramids.

42. Some of them are like the solemn bell towers in ancient temples.

43. Some stab the sky like a sword.

44. Some walk peacefully like docile giraffes, all dazzling.

45. No wonder some people say that entering the ice tower forest is like being in a fairyland.

46. The continuous peaks in the Himalayas block the warm and humid air flow from the Indian Ocean, so the climate on the northern slope is dry and the vegetation is sparse.

47.? But in the mountains, it is also full of vitality.

48. The yaks here are burly and extremely strong.

49. Wild donkeys are rare animals in the world.

50. Blue sheep and plateau rats suffer frequently.

5 1. Snow chickens flock to inaccessible glaciers.

52. These creatures living on the ice sheet at an altitude of 6,000 meters tell people that life is very tenacious.

53. According to the investigation results of China Scientific Investigation 1992 on Mount Everest, the water pollution of Mount Everest cannot be ignored.

54.? For example, arsenic (As), commonly known as an important component of arsenic, generally exists in volcanic ash, sulfur or coal combustion products, and is 1 in 1975.

55.33 micrograms per liter, but it can reach 1992, which has reached 14.

56.9 μ g/L, up 10 times.

57. 1.992 The mercury content of Rongbu River on the northern slope of Mount Everest is 0.

58. 15 micrograms per liter, the Yangtze River and Yellow River announced by the State Environmental Protection Bureau are less than 0.

59.? 2 μ g/L, but the Pearl River water in June 1990 was lower than 0.

60. 1 microgram per liter.
