Based on the investigation of the actual situation of subsidence areas in coal mines in Henan province,in order to restore the original capacity of the destroyed land as soon as possible,according to the landform characteristics and regional location of the subsidence areas,the authors systematically analyzed the characteristics of the subsidence areas.By analyzing and comparing the different types of subsidence areas in coal mines,the authors put forward corresponding reclamation models for the five types of subsidence areas or the four types of subsidence areas.This study provided scientific basis for the land reclamation in mining areas in Henan,and provided reference for land reclamation in other mining areas in China.
