Jiaolai Plain (simplified Chinese: 胶莱平原; traditional Chinese: 膠萊平原; pinyin: Jiāolái píngyuán) is a plain located in the south central part of Shandong Province between the middle hills (中山丘陵) and low hills (低山丘陵) and the low hills of Jiaodong.[3] Its northern and southern tips are surrounded by sea bays.[4]
Overview
Jiaolai Plain is mainly formed by the alluvial flow of rivers such as Huai River, Bailang River (白浪河), Jiaolai River (胶莱河) and Dagu River. [5] Its average elevation is around 50 meters. [6] The plain mainly includes most of Weifang and the northern part of Qingdao.[7]
Jialai Plain is one of the major arable land concentration areas in Shandong.[8] According to modern geographical studies, the plain was flooded by seawater for a long time more than 4,000 years ago.[9]
