An interview team consists of journalists and photographers visited the Jiangjiagou Mudslides Museum (蒋家沟泥石流博物馆) in Dongchuan District(东川区), to explore the Dongchuan Mudslides Observation Station conducted by Chinese Academy of Sciences, on July 23.
Jiangjiagou Mudslides Museum is the biggest mudslides museum around the world, which has the biggest alluvial fan caused by mudslides throughout the world.
Dongchuan has adopted a method which combined biological combination and engineering management together to control the mudslides in recent years. On the one hand, vigorously growing vegetation protects mountain stones. On the other hand, building protective walls in loose soils reduces the damage of mudslides. Ten thousand mu farmlands have been cultivated in landslide areas and experimental stations have been set up, thus preliminary controlled mudslides’ hazards.
