A 5000-meter drop in sea level will connect all continents in the world. The area of the four oceans accounts for 70.8% of the earth's surface area, with an average depth of about 3347 meters. A 50-meter drop in sea level will have a great impact on coastal areas, but the proportion of the total land area will not increase much. When the sea level drops to 5000 meters, pay attention to the dark blue as the ocean, and the blue part as the part just emerging from the sea surface. At this time, all continents are connected.
Characteristics after sea level decline
The sea level really dropped by 50 meters one day. The most intuitive thing we can see is that there will be a large area of land on the earth, at least the land area of China. This may be a blessing for some island countries. After the sea level drops, the sea water will decrease a lot, which has a direct impact on the global climate.
We know that the weather on the earth is often related to the ocean, and rainfall is also closely related to the ocean. When there is less sea water on the earth, the rainfall will inevitably decrease, which will directly lead to drought in many areas, large-scale crop reduction, and human beings will also face difficulties in drinking water, and even serious famine may occur, especially in Africa, and more people may starve to death.
