Geology and Geomorphology

The hilly area of Fuqing is widely distributed, which has become the main body of the whole terrain. Because of the ancient geological heave and change, a natural slope from the northwest to the southeast is formed. Changle - Nan'ao big fault belt is roughly through the city of Chengguan to the middle of the line of Fishing Creek, controlling the development of Fuqing geomorphology. The northwest is Dai Yun mountains to the east of the serpentine offshoot, low mountain, Bing Ling, composed of Mesozoic volcano rocks and granite. The average altitude is about 100 meters. Most of the peaks over 500 meters, some 800 meters, with Yongtai and Minhou at the junction of the ancient mountain for the county's tail peak, 1000.3 meters above sea level. The fault geomorphology is developed, and the great foggy mountain is a typical fault block mountain. Mountain valley have diluvial alluvial plain, Honglu, Yidu account the most area. The southeast is dominated by Taiwan and low mountains, but only Chengguan, Haikou, Jiangjing and Yuxi are alluvial plain, and the upper reaches of the shallow colliculus are distributed. Longgao, Jiangyin peninsula wedge Fuqing Bay and Xinghua Bay, with sand mud flat coast rally erosion funnel type low hilly, rocky plateau, winding broken, harbor numerous islands.
