On the last day of February, the topic of "Poyang Lake is dry again" appeared on the hot search. As the largest freshwater lake in China, the water body area of Poyang Lake has shrunk to the smallest period of nearly 10 years.
According to China Weather Network, after September last year, the water level of Xingzi Station and other sites has recently fallen below the 8 -meter -extremely dry line again, and the blue warning was launched.However, in early February this year, China was frequent in rain and snow, and Jiangnan, South China and other places were almost rainy every day, and the water level of Poyang Lake continued to decline.The Jiangxi Provincial Hydrological Monitoring Center news, at 8:00 on February 27th, the water level of Xingzi Station in Poyang Lake fell to 7.9 meters, below 8 meters of polar dry water line, and issued a blue warning of dry water.
From the satellite map, Poyang Lake's recent "weight loss" is obvious, and the water body area has reached the minimum value of the same period in the past 10 years.The National Satellite Meteorological Center FY-3D Meteorological Satellite Monitoring shows that on February 27, the water body area of Poyang Lake was about 1044 square kilometers.Compared with, the water body area was reduced by about 30.5%, reaching the minimum area of the same period in the past 10 years.
Shi Yan, a weather analysis of China Weather Network, explained: "Although the precipitation in February this year is significantly increased from January this year, the precipitation is still limited to the flood season.It will also be affected by factors such as upstream water, precipitation is not the decisive factor that affects the changes in water levels. "Poyang Lake has continued to decline in water level in late February, and it also has a certain relationship with the reduction of water from the Wuhe River in Jiangxi and the recession of the dry flow of the Yangtze River.
According to the forecast, in the next week, Jiangxi is still dominated by sunny or cloudy weather. The temperature continues to be high, and the precipitation is significantly less compared to the same period.The hydrological department analyzes that the water level of Poyang Lake will continue to lower, and relevant units and the public along the coast must continue to do a good job of responding to various low water levels.
