Chapter 278

It came fiercely and went quickly. Fortunately, no one lived here. If there were people living here, the loss would be great.

In addition, the tsunami this time was not too big, and the highest point until it reached the shore was only 18 meters.

It shows that the normal height on the way it passes is at most five or six meters.

In fact, natural disasters such as tsunamis and earthquakes are not remembered based on their grades.

For example, after the millennium, a magnitude [-] earthquake occurred in Kunlun Mountains. Since the entire mountain range was almost uninhabited, most people did not know about the Kunlun Mountains Earthquake.

In the 50s, Medog even had a super earthquake with a magnitude of [-], but it was not known because there were no people in the shaking range.

There are rumors on the Internet that the largest earthquake in history was the [-] magnitude earthquake in Chile. However, just last year, there was a [-] magnitude earthquake in the Central Japan Sea.

The power of nature, never speculate, and don't mutter.

According to the estimates of scientists, if the magnitude of an earthquake reaches level [-], there is no way for mankind's existing seismic intensity scale to correspond to its power, because an earthquake of level [-] can overturn the entire continent.

You know, an earthquake that can sink Australia to the bottom of the sea in a short period of time and suddenly create another continent can only reach a magnitude [-].

There are also people who object to this opinion, thinking that an earthquake of this magnitude has never occurred in history.

But, how did the mainland come from?

If the Himalayas were slowly formed mountains, why aren't the fossils on the mountains covered with a sandy crust?

"Brother Gun is undoubtedly the god of mold, and this title cannot be avoided."

Fang Hong was very helpless: "It is easy to see tsunamis when earthquakes occur frequently, and this is not the coastal area of ​​the city. This kind of tsunami will not be recorded at all. It is good luck to see it. How can it be bad luck. "

Human cities, especially coastal cities, are generally built in places that are less prone to disasters.

From the map, one city after another is exposed on the edge of the ocean, but in fact they are all illusions.

Most cities are in calm bays.

The exposed area by the sea is less than 300 meters wide, and inland is a huge mixed wild land.

Fang Hong set up camp directly: "I will rest here tonight, and I will continue tomorrow morning."

I don't know what kind of climate this mixed wild land should be called. There are large meadows, low shrubs, and broad-leaved forests mixed together. The reason for its formation is not only related to the climate, but also to the landform.

There is a terrain called rocky desert terrain.

A rocky desert is an area where the surface has no sediment and consists mainly of boulders and exposed bedrock.There are two basic types: ① Rocky desert, a mountain with bare bedrock, sparse vegetation and desolate scenery.

In our country, most of the desertification in the south is rocky desert.

Originally there was a layer of shallow surface sediment on the surface, but due to water and soil erosion, it will become bare stone.

In fact, it is not necessarily caused by water and soil erosion. For example, Huashan Mountain was blasted out of the scenic spot to open up wasteland some time ago. I don’t know who gave it the courage to blow up the mountain to dig rocks in the scenic spot. It is said that the project approver was quickly dismissed.

This rocky desert is also different from the desert, but the climate is similar.

Thinking about the rainforest effect, why do deserts exist in such a narrow land bridge area from Mexico and Guatemala all the way to northern South America?Clouds are indeed mobile, but heavy rain is not brought by strong winds. If there is no transpiration effect in a large area, it will not rain much. Always waiting for strong winds to blow clouds and rain, the possibility is too low.

The principle is simple. If a cloud meets the rainfall standard, it has rained before the strong wind blows it over the desert.

What good is a cloud being blown over a desert if it doesn't meet rainfall standards?Only when a cloud is blown over the woodland, coupled with the transpiration effect, the flowing cloud is quickly transformed into a rain cloud, and it will rain.

Or, simply, the transpiration effect in an area is so strong that every day the water vapor gathers in the sky to form rainfall, then this water cycle will repeat itself, and this kind of woodland is called a rainforest.

The stone desert where they are currently stationed can only be regarded as forest land, and it does not meet the standard of a rainforest, even if it is in the tropics.

In the early morning, when the water friends saw the live broadcast room open, they entered immediately and found that it was a recorded broadcast.

Everyone knows that if something interesting is recorded at night, Brother Gun will explain it in the early morning.

In the picture, there is a flower with green branches and emerald green leaves. The flower is huge and white, surrounded by some orange-red curved narrow flowers and leaves.

It's like a jewelry made of gold wrapped around white jade. Those curved narrow flowers and leaves are not regular, but they look messy and beautiful.

In fact, everything in nature has laws, but there are some laws that people cannot see.

The top of the pure white flower is slightly opened, and then the curved narrow orange-red flower leaves are separated from the flower body and spread out gracefully towards the surroundings.

"This is Epiphyllum!"

Epiphyllum, epiphytic succulent shrub, 2-6 meters high, old stem cylindrical, lignified.Many branches, leaf-like side flat, lanceolate to oblong-lanceolate, margin wavy or deeply crenate, base acute, short acuminate or tapered into stalk-shaped, dark green, glabrous, middle rib thick, Branches of old plants produce aerial roots.

"That's right." Fang Hong: "Epiphyllum, I photographed it last night. After flowering, the flowering period of Epiphyllum is extremely short, and it only blooms in the middle of the night. The reason is that Epiphyllum is a cactus plant native to the desert areas of Central America. Of course, It doesn't look like a cactus at all, it looks like a lotus."

Seen from above, the seemingly irregular narrow leaves seem to open clockwise, and the flowers and leaves bloom accordingly, just like birds spreading their wings. The golden flower in "Kung Fu" is actually an epiphyllum.

"In ancient my country, there was a legend of epiphyllum, and the origin of epiphyllum is Central America. It is reasonable to say that it should have been introduced into my country after 1500. Therefore, academic schools are generally divided into two schools. One school thinks that this is the arrival of people in ancient my country. The proof of the Americas, the other school believes that the blooming of the big banyan tree is just a flash in the pan as it was said in ancient times.”

The flowers bloom and fall, and the time-lapse shooting simplifies the four-hour process to 40 seconds.

Seeing the flowers bloom, seeing the flowers fade.

Twisting fingers like lotus, Wei Tuo looks down on pity.

"Because epiphyllum was originally a desert plant, it usually blooms at night, and the flowering period is extremely short, so as to ensure that it does not lose too much water during flowering, so as to ensure that its life can continue. It is different from what we often say that it blooms instantly and then withers, Epiphyllum's short flowering period is just a guarantee of its long lifespan."

The white and blooming epiphyllum shrinks towards the center, and the narrow leaves are retracted, but they can never return to the full past. After only a few hours of blooming, the water in the flowers and leaves is exhausted, and the branches become soft. Drooping feebly.

There are many strange plants in the world, and each plant has its own reasons for its strangeness.

If one day, you see a person rising like the sun, blooming with light, and then disappearing without a trace, it is probably because that person is afraid of losing himself in reverence and dying of life.

Landslides sink Antigua, and tsunamis climb rocky cliffs.

Wei Tuo's solitary branch sticks to the spring mud, and the desert sees flowers in the middle of the night.

Ye Cuiyue's hanging branches sway lightly, and the morning glow rises from the forest waves in the distance.

Tight clothes and sleeves brush off the dew, and the journey will live up to the prime of life.
