At the invitation of Professor Pei Xiangjun, Dean of the School of Ecological Environment of Chengdu University of Technology (CDUT), many renowned experts in ecological environment field made a visit to CDUT and guided the “Everest Scientific Research Project” on August 22. The distinguished guests include Professor Xu Zuxin, Academician of Chinese Academy of Engineering, Professor Li Huaizheng, Professor Yin Hailong, Associate Professor Jin Wei from Tongji University, Professor Huang Fang from University of Science and Technology of China, Professor Tang Ya from Sichuan University, Researcher Liu Qing from Chengdu Institute of Biology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Professor Ni Shijun, the former president of CDUT and Professor Wang Yunsheng.
In the morning, Professor Pei Xiangjun, one of the chief scientists of the “Everest Scientific Research Project” made a report on “Full Life Cycle of Major Projects on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau: the Mutual Feedback Principle of Ecological and Geological Environment and Key Restoration Techniques during Engineering Excavation and Filling”. Besides, a report on the “Research on the Multimedia Migration and Transformation Mechanism of Heavy Metals in Large Mines on the Eastern Edge of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau” was made by the Professor Huang Yi. Then experts such as Academician Xu Zuxin made comments on the research objectives, contents and plans as well as scientific problems to be solved of the two above “Everest Scientific Research Projects” reports respectively, and spoke highly of the project, which has played an important role in clarifying the tricky problems, for instance, the impact of the construction of major projects such as the Sichuan-Tibet Railway and the mineral resources development on ecological environment.
