As an advantage and characteristic of cultural relics resources in Gansu, caves from different eras have been preserved to varying degrees, forming a relatively complete history of Buddhist cave art, known as the "hometown of Chinese cave art". A few years ago, in order to make the environmental meteorological observation of the the Mogao Grottoes of Dunhuang, including the world cultural heritage, more accurate and "advanced", the meteorological department of Gansu Province built regional automatic meteorological stations in Mogao Grottoes, West Thousand Buddha Cave, Five Temple Grottoes and other places to carry out environmental meteorological observation and realize data sharing; In case of significant meteorological processes, timely weather forecast and warning information for Mogao Caves and other places will be provided to Dunhuang Academy, and preventive measures and suggestions will be proposed.
