    Chinese nation. The mother river, the Yangtze River, originates from Toto. The average depth of the river formed by the melting of snow water on the plateau is only one meter.

    The deepest natural water depth is 103 meters in Niuguanji, at the junction of Wuxue in Hubei Province and Jiangxi Province in the middle and lower reaches, while the deepest place in the Three Gorges Reservoir area is about 320 meters. The main stream of the Yangtze River above Yichang is the upper reaches, with a length of 4,504 kilometers and a basin area of 1 million square kilometers.

    3464 km long; The section of the Yibin to Yichang River, commonly known as the Sichuan River, is 1040 kilometers long; Yichang to Hukou is the middle reach, with a total length of 955 kilometers and a basin area of 680,000 square kilometers.

    Below the estuary, it is 938 kilometers long and covers an area of 120,000 square kilometers. It is estimated that the total area of the entire Yangtze River basin is about 1.8 million square kilometers, accounting for nearly 20% of China's total land area. The main stream of the Yangtze River flows from west to east, covering three steps of China's topography, and passing through plateaus, mountains, hills, basins, plains and other landform types according to altitude.

    Throughout the whole territory, the terrain gradually decreases from west to east, and the ups and downs are large. In 1974, the depth of the lake recorded by the sounder was 1,637 meters.

    In 1977, Soviet scholars used the deep-water explorer "Perseus."

    visited Lake Baikal.

    In 1991, the maximum depth of the Baikal special submarine dive was 1637 meters. In 1992, relevant experts according to the Russian Navy.

    The data of the hydrogeological department have drawn up a topographic map of the Baikal basin. Due to technical limitations at the time, the distance between the underwater bathymetric contours was 100 m and 500 m, so the topographic map was inaccurate. There are more than 3,600 navigable rivers in the Yangtze River basin, accounting for 70% of the country's inland river navigable mileage, and the density indicators of various transportation networks are higher than the national average.

    The transportation density per 10,000 people is 50% higher than the national average, the transportation density per 100 kilometers is more than 3 times the national average, and the comprehensive density and economic correlation density are also more than 2 times the national average, showing the advantages of the Yangtze River water system shipping network and its status and role in the national inland waterways. Since the source of the Yangtze River is the Detuo River in the west, the average depth of the river formed by the melting of snow water from the plateau is only one meter. When the Yangtze River flows through the waters of the Jinsha River, it is not very deep.

    Over the Hengduan Mountains.

    The terrain is very different, and the water depth can reach tens of meters. After that, it starts from the Hengduan Mountains and flows through the Sichuan Basin.

    In the south, then to Chongqing Daba Mountain.

    The depth of the water in this area is about the same, about thirty or forty meters. Since ancient times, the Yangtze River has been an important "waterway" in China.

    The depth of the Yangtze River is 1,320 meters

    The Yangtze River is the longest river in Asia, the largest river in the world, and the third longest river in the world. If only natural channels are measured, the Yangtze River is the second deepest river in the world after the Congo River. The Yangtze River stretches for 6,387 kilometers from east to west, and the depth of the water varies due to the different natural environments in various places.

    The deepest part of the Yangtze River is in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, and at the junction of Wuhan and Jiangxi, there is a place called Niuguanji, where the water depth reaches 103 meters.

    The above is the natural water depth of the Yangtze River, but with the continuous construction of hydropower stations, the water depth of the Yangtze River has also been artificially intervened, the most representative of which is the Three Gorges Dam.

    Because of the existence of the Three Gorges Dam, this section of the river should be deepened, and the deepest position is in Xiling Gorge, and the deepest water depth reaches 320 meters.

    The Yangtze River flows through the provinces

    The main stream of the Yangtze River runs from west to east through central China.

    It is located between 90°33 122°25 east longitude and 24°30 35°45 north latitude. Hundreds of tributaries run from north to south, extending to parts of eight provinces and autonomous regions, including Guizhou, Gansu, Shaanxi, Henan, Guangxi, Guangdong, Zhejiang, and Fujian. The basin covers an area of 1.8 million square kilometers.

    It accounts for about 1 5 of China's total land area. Huai River.

    Most of the water also passes through the Grand Canal.

    It flows into the Yangtze River. The main stream of the Yangtze River, Yichang, is the upper reaches, with a length of 4,504 kilometers and a basin area of 1 million square kilometers.

    3,364 km long; The section of the Yibin to Yichang River is commonly known as the Sichuan River, which is 1040 kilometers long; Yichang to Hukou.

    It is the middle reach, with a length of 955 kilometers and a basin area of 680,000 square kilometers. Below the mouth of the lake is the downstream, with a length of 938 kilometers and a basin area of 120,000 square kilometers.

    Professional surveyors have also measured the depth of the river in the area of the Yangtze River Bridge in Wuhan of more than 30 meters, and the water depth value measured at Xiaguanpukou has also reached about 40 meters, and the deepest natural water depth of the Yangtze River, which is more well-known, should be Niuguanji, which has been measured at a depth of 103 meters, which is also the largest depth value measured in the Yangtze River so far.

    As we all know, the Yangtze River is the world's largest river in terms of water energy, and its length is also the first in Asia and the third in the world, and the richness of its water resources has reached about 36% of China's total river runoff, and the Yangtze River has more water on the whole earth, only the Congo River and the Amazon River, even the Mississippi River in the United States, which has a large basin area, can not be compared with it.

    Indeed, unlike the shallow overall water depth where the Yangtze River flows, the Three Gorges Dam has a dam height of 181 meters, and even the normal water storage level is as high as 175 meters, but this concrete gravity dam is a hydraulic project. This special building not only has a total storage capacity of 39.3 billion, but also a flood control reservoir capacity of 100 million cubic meters, and its capacity of tens of millions of kilowatts also ranks first in the world.

    The eight sections of the Three Gorges Dam are located in the middle of the riverbed, and 23 deep discharge holes with an elevation of 90 meters and 20 flood discharge surface holes with a width of 8 meters are designed respectively. However, the construction of the Three Gorges Dam is not only to withstand once-in-a-century floods, but also to replenish water, generate electricity and open navigation.

    Although the Three Gorges Dam has a flood control capacity, it can reduce the flow of flood peaks to 10,000 cubic meters per second, reaching the first place in this field of water conservancy projects in the world. However, the reservoir depth of the Three Gorges Dam cannot be used as the maximum natural depth of the Yangtze River, and there is an essential difference between the artificial water conservancy project and the natural water depth of the river, and the special buildings built locally cannot represent the normal water depth of the entire Yangtze River.

    The upper reaches of the Three Gorges Reservoir on the Yangtze River should be the deepest, more than 100 meters, and Lake Baikal first belonged to the territory of China, and was the main place of activity of the northern ethnic groups in early China。Su Shepherd North Sea says Baikal. Standing on the edge of the smoky lake, the boundless surface of the lake resembles the sea, known in China as the ancient Beihai, was once the main area of activity of the northern tribes, after the Qing Dynasty signed the Treaty of Nebuchu with the Tsar, Lake Berga is now the main settlement of the Irkutsk ethnic minority.

    Lake Baikal is the deepest lake in the world, but how deep is it?

    For starters, its official figures average water depth of 730 meters, "taller" than the 600-meter-tall Ping An Financial Center building in Shenzhen, China. With an average depth of only 20 meters, Qinghai Lake, China's largest lake, is a world of difference. At the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, Russian expeditions extensively explored Lake Baikal and its surroundings.

    At the beginning of the 20th century, scholars drew the first full map of Lake Baikal and measured the depth of the lake. In 1959, the depth of the lake was recorded at 1620m.

    In 1974, the depth of the lake recorded by the sounder survey was 1637m. In 1977, Soviet scholars used the deep-water expedition "Paisis" to investigate Lake Baikal, in 1991, a special submarine dived in Baikal to a maximum depth of 1637 meters, in 1992, relevant experts drew a topographic map of the Baikal basin based on the data of the hydrographic department of the Russian Navy, due to the technical limitations of the time, the demarcation of the underwater bathymetric spacing was 100 meters to 500 meters, so the topographic map was inaccurate.

    Measuring Lake Baikal in the world's tallest building, it is equivalent to more than two and a half of the Ping An Financial Building in Shenzhen, the two world's tallest towers, equivalent to the 828-meter-high Burj Khalifa, five Eiffel Towers or Ben 17: visually showing the depth of Lake Baikal, it can be seen that it is very likely that it is trapped in the morning to an infinite end, and there are many strange things in this world, which make us unable to accept more Lu Xi. <>
