A China-Nepal joint scientific expedition team has completed the first full-depth ice core drilling at the summit of Mount Qomolangma, internationally known as Mount Everest, from the Nepali side.⁣
⁣
The team conducted multi-gradient ice and snow core sampling as it advanced from the 6,000-meter altitude area on the southern slope of Mount Qomolangma towards the summit at 8,848.86 meters.⁣
⁣
The samples they took will be sent to laboratories under low-temperature conditions for the study of climate and environmental changes in the world's highest region, cryosphere evolution, and atmospheric records at extreme altitudes.⁣
