科学家钻探了塔吉克斯坦帕米尔斯有史以来最深的冰芯,取回了可能可追溯到三万年前的古老冰块。 Scientists drilled the deepest ice cores ever in Tajikistan’s Pamirs, retrieving ancient ice that may date back 30,000 years.

2025年11月,一个由俄罗斯冰川学家Stanislav Kutuzov领导的国际科学家小组成功地从塔吉克斯坦帕米尔山脉中提取了有史以来最深的冰芯,在海拔5 810米处钻探了100多米深。 In November 2025, an international team of scientists led by Russian glaciologist Stanislav Kutuzov successfully extracted the deepest ice cores ever recovered from the Pamir Mountains in Tajikistan, drilling over 100 meters deep at 5,810 meters above sea level. 考察团在瑞士极地研究所和冰记忆基金会的资助下,从Kon Chukurbashi冰冠中提取了冰样,那里极端条件和易碎的尘埃冰构成挑战。 Funded by the Swiss Polar Institute and Ice Memory Foundation, the expedition retrieved ice samples from the Kon Chukurbashi ice cap, where extreme conditions and brittle, dust-laden ice posed challenges. 这些岩芯显示深黄黄层和高颗粒含量,可能可追溯到20,000至30,000年,有可能对过去气候条件、大气构成和季风模式提供稀有的洞察,而冰川对全球变暖无动于衷的地区正是如此。 The cores, showing dark yellowish layers and high particulate content, may date back 20,000 to 30,000 years, potentially offering rare insights into past climate conditions, atmospheric composition, and monsoon patterns in a region where glaciers are defying global warming. 保存供今后分析的这些样品可有助于澄清自然气候多变性,改进南亚和中亚气候影响的预测。 These samples, preserved for future analysis, could help clarify natural climate variability and improve predictions for climate impacts in South and Central Asia.
