中文简介: | 在苏格兰高地可以看到一些英国最引人注目的风景。强大的本尼维斯,荒凉的凯恩戈姆高原,或雄伟的格兰科景观,都可以在我们所有人身上释放出野性的召唤。尽管这些地貌大多是由大约1万年前结束的冰川活动雕刻而成,但这些岩石本身却讲述了一段更古老的历史。高地只不过是古代山脉更高范围内被侵蚀的残桩。根据摆在我们面前的岩石暴露的地质证据,这个单元描述了那个古老山脉的起源和消亡。 |
课程简介: | Some of Britain’s most dramatic scenery is to be found in the Scottish Highlands. The sight of mighty Ben Nevis, the desolate plateau of the Cairngorms, or the imposing landscapes of Glen Coe can unleash the call of the wild in all of us. Although these landforms were largely carved by glacial activity that ended some 10,000 years ago, the rocks themselves tell of a much older history. The Highlands are merely eroded stumps of a much higher range of ancient mountains. This unit is an account of the origin and demise of that ancient mountain range, based on the geological evidence laid before us in rock exposures. |
关 键 词: | 苏格兰高地; 本尼维斯山; 古老山脉树桩 |
