China has built the first station in Tajikistan

According to media reports, China has built the first superstation for climate and environmental monitoring in Central Asia along its megaproject “One Belt, One Road.”

The station is located in the Shahritus district and “provides comprehensive monitoring data on dust, pollutants, and meteorological elements in key areas of Central Asia.”

The station is part of a network for climate and environmental monitoring along the “One Belt, One Road” project. It was established at the initiative of Lanzhou University of China and jointly constructed by government agencies and institutions from China and other countries.

It is reported that the station can provide warnings about meteorological disasters and counteract climate change.

The station is part of more than 20 planned stations across the countries and regions of the “One Belt, One Road” project. To date, seven stations have been launched in China and one in Pakistan.

It is still unknown whether the data obtained by the station will be available to specialists in Tajikistan, or if only China will have access to this data. Also, no agency has confirmed or denied whether the station will collect monitoring data “on dust, pollutants, and meteorological elements,” or if it may collect other data as well.
