澳门咸潮产生的原因、危害及防治对策

咸潮又称咸潮上溯、盐水入侵,是发生在沿海河口水域的一种水文现象。近年来,澳门咸潮频繁发生,严重影响了人们的正常生活和工作,也为工农业生产带来了巨大的损失。随着咸潮危害的加剧,人们对咸潮的防御对策问题也越来越重视。该论文分析了澳门咸潮产生的原因,认为干旱少雨和海平面上升等自然因素是导致咸潮发生的主要原因,而由人类活动导致的过度用水和生态失衡则加速了咸潮的发生。接着论述了咸潮给澳门带来的危害和测定咸潮的指标方法,最后对预防澳门咸潮的发生提出了一些建议。在澳门的地理背景条件下,除充分利用澳门的水库湖泊资源以增加澳门淡水储备外,更加需要全流域公众珍惜水资源,注意节约用水。
