新疆慕士塔格峰二号冰川近日发生雪崩,大量冰雪从峰顶倾泻而下,形成上百米宽、数百米高的雪雾雪墙1。该冰川位于新疆阿克陶县,地处中巴边境,长年被冰雪和冰川覆盖1。由于冰川位于未对外开放的无人区,此次事故未传出伤亡1。
慕士塔格峰主峰海拔7546米1。科学家指出,此次雪崩与全球气候变暖导致的冰川融化密切相关1。据警告,全球有超过3100条跃动冰川可能引发洪水与雪崩1,而亚洲地区有近10万条冰川正在急速融化中1。
An avalanche recently struck the No. 2 glacier of Muztagh Ata Peak in Xinjiang's Aktao County, sending massive volumes of ice and snow cascading down from the summit 1. The event created a snow wall spanning over one hundred meters in width and several hundred meters in height, accompanied by a towering column of snow mist 1.
The glacier is situated in an uninhabited region that remains closed to the public, with no casualties reported from the incident 1. Located on the China-Pakistan border, Muztagh Ata Peak's main summit reaches an elevation of 7,546 meters and is permanently covered by snow and glaciers year-round 1. Scientists have cautioned that over 3,100 surge-type glaciers worldwide pose risks of triggering floods and avalanches, while nearly 100,000 glaciers across Asia are melting rapidly 1. The avalanche reflects mounting concerns about accelerated glacier melting in the region, which experts attribute to global climate warming 1.
