Here to share the basic information of Chongming Island!
Chongming Island is a product of the development process of the new Yangtze River Delta, which is formed by the continuous accumulation of a large amount of sediment discharged from the Yangtze River under the interaction of the river and the sea.
The Yangtze River rushes to the east, and due to the reduction of the specific drop, the flow rate is slowed down, and other reasons, a large amount of sediment is gradually deposited here. On the one hand, a coastal plain is created on the north and south banks of the Yangtze River estuary, and on the other hand, a large number of estuarine sandbars are formed in the river. Over time, Chongming Island gradually became a typical estuarine sand island. It has undergone more than a thousand years of changes from the surface of the water to the final formation of a large island.
Chongming Island has low and flat terrain, fertile soil, four distinct seasons, sufficient sunshine, suitable for planting rice, three wheat, corn, cotton, rapeseed, vegetables, the nearby waters are one of the main aquatic fishing bases in Shanghai.
