Description

Located in the northeastern Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, Hoh Xil is one of the world’s most unique plateau ecosystems. Known for its harsh environment, endemic species, and vital ecological functions, Hoh Xil's distinctive topography and climate have fostered rare plant and animal communities, earning it the reputation as a "genetic treasure trove of rare wildlife." As a key source region for the northern headwaters of the Yangtze River, Hoh Xil is home to a dense network of lakes that plays a crucial role in regulating water systems. Aligned with SDG 13: Climate Action, Hoh Xil benefits from big data and AI to enhance climate change monitoring and early warning systems. Digital tools such as data visualization, remote sensing, and AI models provide real-time insights into environmental changes and ecosystem health, enabling proactive conservation efforts. These technologies support better decision-making, improve climate adaptation strategies, and ensure the long-term preservation of this fragile ecosystem.
