Japan is facing sinking? Actually, two places in China are sinking, do you know?

Japan consists of Honshu, Shikoku, Hokkaido, Kyushu and more than 6,800 small islands. Due to the extinction boundary between Asia-Europe plate and Pacific plate, there are many volcanoes and earthquakes in Japan, and one tenth of the world's volcanoes are located in Japan. According to statistics, 20% of earthquakes of magnitude 6 or above occurred here.

According to official statistics, more than 6,800 islands have been formed in Japan due to volcanoes and earthquakes. However, there is an old saying in China that fortunes depend on each other. At the time of island formation, a huge trench was also formed in Honshu Island, Japan, with the deepest point reaching 10374 m, and the Japanese trench is connected with the deepest Mariana trench in the world.

Due to trench, earthquake, volcano and other factors, the United States proposed? Japan's sinking theory? , although? Japan's sinking theory? It seems far away, but there are still many people worried. A sink? Even most Japanese began to immigrate to Brazil, and there is another group in Brazil called? Japanese Brazilian? .

Japanese Brazilian? Although he is an immigrant, he retains the cultural characteristics of Japan, except Japan? A sink? Besides, there are two places in China that are gradually sinking. China lies in the east and inland of Asia. How should it face it? A sink? And then what? In fact, these two places are islands.

Changdao County is a county under the jurisdiction of Yantai City, Shandong Province. It is the only island county in Shandong Province. It is located between Jiaodong and Liaodong Peninsula, where the Yellow Sea and Bohai Sea meet. Named after the island has a long mountain island. Long Island County has a long history. In primitive times, Changdao County was the land of Lion (a branch of Dongyi people).

After the Qin dynasty unified the whole country, the county system was implemented, and Long Island was under the jurisdiction of Huang County, and it was not until 1983 that it was under the jurisdiction of Yantai. Changdao County belongs to hilly area, the highest island is Gaoshan Island, with an altitude of only 202.8 meters, and the lowest island is Dongzuishi Island with an altitude of only 7.2 meters.

The other is Luodousha Island, a small island in the South China Sea. Luodousha Island is a sandbar island in Qiongzhou Strait between Qianshan Town, xuwen county City, Guangdong Province and Wenchang City, Hainan Province. More than 400 years ago, it is an uninhabited island and the largest uninhabited island off Zhanjiang.

However, Rodousha Island is facing the edge of continuous sinking. According to the investigation of 1999, the original coastline of Luodousha Island is 8.6 kilometers long and covers an area of 2.6 square kilometers. However, according to the survey data in 2009, there is only 1.6 square kilometers of land left on the island, and there is almost no natural vegetation.

As Luodousha Island is located on the important waterway of Qiongzhou Strait, in order to ensure the safety of ships, a 50-meter-high lighthouse was built on Luodousha Island in the mid-1990s, which became the symbol of Luodousha Island. However, after more than ten years, the lighthouse has been completely exposed, and it seems that the rickety lighthouse may sink to the bottom of the sea at any time.

In addition to climate warming and sea level rise, this factor is mainly caused by typhoons. The soil of Luodousha Island is basically sea sand with strong fluidity, which is constantly eroded by seawater and typhoons.
