Lop Nur

From Uyghur لوپنۇر (lopnur), from Written Oirat ᠯᠣ᠊ᠫ
ᠨᡇᡇᠷ (Lob nuur), from ᠯᠣ᠊ᠫ (Lob) + ᠨᡇᡇᠷ (nuur, “lake”), where the former is itself of unknown origin from older times, possibly Old Uyghur. Compare Mandarin 羅布淖爾 /罗布淖尔 (Luóbùnào'ěr), 羅布泊 /罗布泊 (Luóbù pō, “Lop Lake”).

Kennedy at the time was greatly concerned over reports that the Chinese Communists were secretly conducting nuclear explosions at Lop Nor in Northwest China—a sure indication they were working on atomic weapons. This was the period when Moscow and Peking were still close to each other, otherwise it might have been possible for the United States to devise a way to neutralize Peking's nuclear potential at an early stage. At their meeting Kennedy asked Chen many questions about Lop Nor. Could he have been thinking of a preventive surgical strike?

U.S. concerns about Beijing’s possible breaches of a “zero yield” standard for test blasts have been prompted by activities at China’s Lop Nur nuclear test site throughout 2019, the State Department report said.
Zero yield refers to a nuclear test in which there is no explosive chain reaction of the type ignited by the detonation of a nuclear warhead.
“China’s possible preparation to operate its Lop Nur test site year-round, its use of explosive containment chambers, extensive excavation activities at Lop Nur and a lack of transparency on its nuclear testing activities ... raise concerns regarding its adherence to the zero yield standard,” the report said without providing evidence of a low-yield test.

In 1864, Sir McDonald Stephenson, an eminent British engineer, arrived in China to impress the advantages of railways on China, but his scheme was pigeonholed. The next scheme was the Woosung Railway, from Shanghai on the Huangpu river to Woosung at its mouth, a distance of 12 miles.

The first mill to send its Chinese workers home was the Nikka Number 8 Mill down the Huangp’u River from Shanghai at its Wusung entry to the vast Yangtze. The neighboring Wing On mill under Chinese owners continued to hum. There at Wusung Port was also the Chinese fortress guarding both the entrance to Shanghai’s waterway and the arterial Yangtze.

Songhua

Borrowed from the Hanyu Pinyin romanization of the Mandarin Chinese pronunciation of 松花 (sōnghuā) in 松花江 (Sōnghuā Jiāng).

The water quality of the Songhua River (Northeast China) was of concern, especially in the 1980s and early 1990s, and there were many studies carried out on this aspect. However, only one or several independent water quality indices were used to consider the effects of pollutants on the water quality, for instance, heavy metal and toxic organic pollutants. The combined effects of multiple indices were seldom studied. In this article, based on the environmental monitoring data, the water quality of the Songhua River was analyzed using factor analysis, which comprehensively considered six indices of water quality of each monitoring section.

The reports, including some from the official Xinhua news agency, suggested that officials here and in Jilin Province, where the disaster occurred 380 kilometers, or 235 miles, up the Songhua River, lied or told only part of the story until they had no choice but to admit the truth.[…]
"They were trying to lie and get by," said Qi Guangzhong, 64, as he walked along the Songhua River on Friday. "The government wanted to hide this."

The study site of the Songhua River is located in the Heilongjiang Province on the territory of Northern China. The Songhua flows from south west to northeast near the center of Harbin, having a length of about 50 km within the city. The Songhua is a plains river with a sandy bottom and meandering bed. The fairway width ranges from 400 to 800 m, depth from 2 to 12 m. Bottom sediments of the Songhua nearby Harbin, as compared to other rivers and lakes of Northern China, contain particularly high concentrations of Pb, Zn and Ni, as well as appreciable levels of Cd and As [6, 12].
