Precise instrument system first "eye" sultry hole

The day before yesterday morning, the Zhoukoudian Shanren Site Monitoring Center was unveiled and established, indicating that Zhoukoudian Shanren Site will begin scientific monitoring through precision scientific instrument systems.

Li Wei, director of the site’s office and director of the monitoring center, said that the currently-initiated monitoring center mainly monitors the temperature, humidity and soil water content inside the ruins of the Deaf people. With the complete establishment of monitoring equipment, monitoring projects will be more abundant.

It is understood that the establishment of the Deaf Site Monitoring Center is only part of the Deaf site monitoring project. With the continuation of the later equipment construction, 30 million precision monitoring devices will be installed within a 48,000-square-kilometer site within 4 years.

Li Wei said that there are currently 15 monitoring sites installed and 7 monitoring personnel. The monitoring sites are mainly concentrated in the Shanren Cave.

At present, the temperature, humidity, soil water content can be monitored by these instruments, and the instability of the rock mass can also be monitored. Monitoring data will be uploaded to the monitoring center every 10 minutes, and real-time monitoring of the protection situation can be achieved.

Li Lan said that the torrential rains of July 21 this year caused people to sweat for the ruins of the monks. Because of the low height of the cave, they feared that it would be easy to store water. However, due to the better seepage of the water, no large areas of stagnant water were found in the cave. Happening. However, experts have been worried about where these waters have gone. If we do not understand this issue, it will easily lead to the loosening of Geology and the changes in the cave environment.

The equipment established this time monitored the conditions in the cave, soil moisture and other indicators to determine that the July 21 heavy rain had no serious impact on the cave.
