As of 12:30 noon on the 12th, according to the Baiyu County report, the current visually measured landslide body Shunhe is about 2,000 meters long, the maximum width of the Henghe River is about 200 meters, the height is about 100 to 200 meters, and the square volume is about 25 million cubic meters. It is estimated that the landslide lake will store about 200 million cubic meters.
dams lake refers to a lake formed by landslides, soil and rock flows or lava blocking river valleys or riverbeds and storing water to a certain extent. It is usually caused by natural causes such as earthquakes, wind disasters, volcanic eruptions, etc., and also caused by human factors, such as explosive firing, engineering excavation, etc. The formation of a dam is usually composed of unstable geological conditions. When the dam is washed, eroded, dissolved, collapsed, etc., the dam will appear as a "overflow dam". In the end, because the dam is in a very poor geological condition, it will evolve into a "decline" and instantly cause mountain torrents, which will cause devastating damage to the downstream areas. (Most dams will continuously inject water from the original rivers into the storage capacity within a few days after their formation, and accumulate enough water to collapse.)
