Abstract:The hydrogeological and engineering geological conditions in northern Shandong area have been discussed in detail. The ground subsidence rate and accumulated land subsidence in northern Shandong area have obtained on the basis of multiperiod leveling data and with the aid of multiyear insar interpretation data after verification. It is showed that the square of sedimentation rate in Lubei plain which is greater than 50mm/a is 502.73km2. There are two significant settlement centers, one is located in Zhangzhuang in the northwest of Dezhou city, and the ground settlement of cumulative amount is more than 1.3m; the other one is in the northeast of Guangrao city with the ground settlement of cumulative amount of 1.605m, and 200mm settlement isoline trap area is 14904km2 which accounts for 34.34% of Lubei plain area. The mechanism of land subsidence in the northern plain of Shandong province has been analyzed, the relationship between ground subsidence and groundwater level has been established, and the prevention countermeasures and suggestions are put forward.
