Land subsidence is a global issue and has become an important challenge to the safety and sustainable development of urban infrastructure. After a systematic evaluation, China's research team found large regional differences in urban land settlement around the world. Among them, southern North America, Southeast Asia, and Central West Asia were the most prominent. The results were published online in the international academic journal “Nature and Cities” on October 12.
