The water area of Poyang Lake is reduced by 80%, and there is a "sandstorm" on the lake bed. What is the reason?

On September 25th, according to the news of Jiangxi Meteorological Bureau, the current water area has been reduced by 80%, the lake bed is exposed, and sandstorms have also blown up, which will have a great impact on the local development and survival. Let's take a look at the reason why the lake bed is exposed and the sandstorm blows.

Continuous high temperature.

As we all know, since this summer, the continuous high temperature in a large scale throughout the country has caused serious harm. In the past, it was autumn at this time, but this year, many areas continued to have high temperatures, and Poyang Lake in Jiangxi was seriously threatened. The continuous high temperature makes the local drought very serious.

The high temperature made Poyang Lake continuously dry up.

Because of the continuous high temperature, Poyang Lake is continuously dry, with little precipitation, much less than in previous years. Low-temperature and high-temperature precipitation reduced the water area of Poyang Lake by nearly 80%, resulting in the exposed lake bed, which seriously affected the local ecology. Without water, underwater creatures can't survive. Poyang Lake recently entered the dry season, and the water level dropped significantly. Coupled with the influence of many extreme weather, it caused a severe drought. Therefore, the decline of water level in Poyang Lake, the survival and development of human society and the extreme weather and climate environment are all the reasons for the sandstorm in Poyang Lake.

The lake bed is exposed, and a lot of sand is exposed, causing sandstorms.

After I crossed the road, there was a lot of dust and sand on the lake, and there was a strong wind blowing by the lake. When wind, sand and wind are mixed together, it is easy to form sandstorms, which pose a serious threat to the local living environment and hinder traffic. The living environment will also become messy, and the balance of Poyang Lake's ecological environment will be broken. These are the causes of impermanence, as well as sandstorms. The main reason is that the high temperature and lack of rain lead to the bare riverbed, and then strong winds blow, forming sandstorms. This is the reason for the sandstorm.
