What are the natural resources and natural disasters in the Pearl River Basin?

1. Resources: 1. The Pearl River is rich in runoff and water resources. The installed capacity of hydropower that can be developed in the whole basin is about 2510.2 million kilowatts, and the annual power generation can reach10.65438+0.68 billion kwh. Among them, Xijiang Hongshui River is a "rich mine" with concentrated location, large flow and superior development conditions. There are still a few that have been developed and utilized, and it is urgent to speed up development. 2. The Pearl River Basin is rich in mineral resources, with 58 proven minerals and 25 with reserves exceeding 100 million tons, mainly including coal, tin, manganese, tungsten, aluminum and phosphorus. In addition, the South China Sea outside the Pearl River Estuary is rich in oil and natural gas, which is now being explored and developed. Because of the high temperature and rainy all the year round, the trees are lush, the seasons are evergreen, the flowers are in full bloom, and all kinds of fruits are endless all the year round. Plant resources are very rich. Forest plants also provide favorable conditions for animal growth. There are many kinds of animals in Lingnan, which is one of the most prosperous areas in China.

2. Disasters: The precipitation varies greatly from year to year and is unevenly distributed in time and space, resulting in frequent natural disasters such as floods, droughts and salt tides in the basin. Heavy rainfall causes geological disasters such as landslides, collapses and collapses. Low temperature and rainy weather in spring, cold dew wind in autumn and cold wave frost from late autumn to early spring are also frequent disastrous weather.
