On August 24th, the staff of the Meteorological Bureau of Burjin County went through a long trek. Under the severe weather conditions, under the control of bare hands and ship transportation, a set of automatic meteorological stations were successfully built at 1420 meters above sea level, 49 degrees north latitude at 49 degrees north latitude s position. With the normal transmission of the data, this meteorological station, which is located in Xinjiang, made up for the blind spots of meteorological monitoring in northern Altai Mountain, and realized the online and downstream coverage of the Kanas Lake Meteorological Observation Station.

According to the Director of the Meteorological Bureau of Burjin County, Ayitik Malhan introduced that before there was a curved meteorological observation station near Kanas Lake, the station was located in the lower reaches of the lake, but the upstream observation was blank. The observation station of Kanas Lake Lake is located in the upper reaches of the lake, which can achieve full coverage of the upstream and downstream of the meteorological observation station, further improve the precision level of forecast services, and enhance the meteorological disaster prevention and mitigation capacity of Burzin County.

The location of the observation station is remote, and you need to take a boat for 1 hour to reach the mountain for half an hour. In this case, how to ensure the operation and maintenance of the equipment?

Ayitik introduced that the station installed two sets of solar power supply systems to transmit data through two channels of Beidou and mobile signal networks. When the winter sunshine is small and the solar power supply system is insufficient, the spare solar power supply system is used for power supply to ensure that the daily data data can be monitored in real time and transmitted in time.

Lin Yang, deputy director of the Meteorological Bureau of Altay, said that the automatic meteorological station of the Kanas Lake Estuary area is located in the golden area bordering China, Russia, Kazakhstan, and Mongolia. Provide a strong weather guarantee for the country's "Belt and Road" initiative and ecological civilization construction.

It is understood that before the establishment of the Kanas Lake Observation Station, the highest latitude observation station in Xinjiang was the Nuren Meteorological Observation Station of Habahe County, which was 23 kilometers away from Kanas Lake.
