ala Posted August 7, 2004 at 08:29 PM Report Share Posted August 7, 2004 at 08:29 PM Well, Shanghai is built on top of marsh lands (soft Yangtze delta soil).

Mainly also due to groundwater pumping. http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/afp_world/view/97179/1/.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
