Tallest tree in Asia found in Tibet
西藏102.3米“高树”刷新亚洲纪录
The record for the tallest tree in Asia was revised this week, as the Chinese researchers of a scientific investigation led by Peking University announced that they discovered a giant cypress measuring 102.3 meters in the Tibet autonomous region.
近日，由北京大学牵头的联合调查队在位于雅鲁藏布国家级自然保护区内，发现了一棵高达102.3米的巨型柏木，此次发现刷新了按树种排名的亚洲纪录。
The record-breaking tree, called Cupressus torulosa, was found at the national nature reserve of Yarlung Zangbo Grand Canyon in Bome county, Nyingchi city.
这棵破纪录的树名为西藏柏木，是在林芝市波姆县的雅鲁藏布大峡谷国家自然保护区发现的。
The team members used drones and laser radar to map the local cypress aggregation area and confirmed the presence of the 102.3-meter tree.
联合调查队通过采用无人机激光雷达对西藏柏木的聚生区域进行精确测绘，并确认了这棵102.3米高的树的存在。
They also detected a large number of trees over 85 meters high, including 25 measuring over 90 meters.
此外，他们还发现了大量85米以上的树木，其中包含了90米以上高树25棵。
The findings have also contributed to the region having the highest density of giant trees in China and Asia, said a team member from Peking University.
一位调查队成员表示，经过精确测量，这些发现也有助于该地区成为中国和亚洲巨树高度和分布密度最高的区域。
Mainly distributed in southeastern Tibet, the tree has a narrow distribution area and a small population. It has been listed as a national first-class protected plant.
西藏柏木主要分布在我国藏东南区域，分布区域很狭窄，种群数量稀少，被列为国家一级重点保护植物。
The previous China tree height record holder was an evergreen fir measured at 83.2 meters by scientists in Tibet last year.
之前的中国树木高度纪录保持者是一棵南黄果冷杉，由科学家2022年在西藏察隅县测量发现，高83.4米。
