Topography:
Maoming City faces the sea with the back of the mountain, which is high in the north and low in the south, and inclines from northeast to southwest, with the highest elevation of 1,74 meters and the lowest elevation of 1.6 meters. There are three mountains in the north and northeast, namely, cloud opening, hook leakage and fog gathering. Rivers in the territory crisscross and cut, forming a distinct landform with mountains, hills, platforms and plains.
The mountainous area is mainly formed by the intersection of Yunkai Mountain, cloud mountains in the northeast and Goulou Mountain in the northwest. The border area between the southeast of Xinyi and the northeast of Gaozhou has a mountain area of 1,3 square kilometers with an altitude of more than 5 meters, and the main peak, Datiandian, has an altitude of 1,74 meters, which is the second highest peak in Guangdong Province. Mianbeiding (the junction of Gaozhou and Xinyi) is 1627 meters above sea level, and Ehuangzhang (the junction of Dianbai and Yangchun) is 1337 meters above sea level.
this mountainous area forms a barrier to the north of the city, blocking the cold air flow in the north in winter, and reducing the cold current harm to the headquarters. In spring and summer, the warm mass from the south rises, resulting in abundant rainfall in the southern mountainous areas of the city. There are many rivers and abundant water resources in mountainous areas, which are the main areas for forestry and hydropower development.
The elevation of hills is between 5 and 2m, and the relative height is 5-2m. Covering an area of about 7,5 square kilometers, it is distributed in the middle and southwest of the city, with flat land, deep soil layer and mild climate. It is the main area of tropical and subtropical economic fruits in the city.
The elevation of plains and platforms is below 2m, covering an area of about 2,6km2, which are mainly distributed in the middle and lower reaches of Jianjiang River, Xiaodongjiang River and Meihuajiang River and coastal areas. They are the main land for agriculture, animal husbandry and aquaculture, with convenient transportation and relatively developed industrial and commercial enterprises.
