A Tentative Discussion on the Definition and Classification of Danxia Landform
-
摘要: 现代丹霞地貌研究始于20世纪二、三十年代,地质学家冯景兰先生和陈国达教授是最早命名并进行丹霞地貌研究的科学家,也是从那时候丹霞地貌这一地貌术语正式由我国地学家首先命名和定义,但是对丹霞地貌概念的理解达数十种之多,各有侧重。本文基于大地构造运动和新构造运动的认识提出了典型和扩展丹霞地貌的概念和分类,在前人工作的基础上对丹霞地貌的准确定义和适用范围进行了进一步的研究和探讨。Abstract: Researches on Danxia Landform began in the 1920s and 1930s. Professor FENG Jing-lan and Professor CHEN Guo-da, two Chinese Geologists, were the first persons who named and studied this kind of landform. Since then, the definition of the morphologic term ‘Danxia Landform’ has been used by Chinese geologists;nevertheless, there exist dozens of concepts about the Danxia landform, with each concept having its particular emphasis. According to the understanding of geotectonic activities and neotectonism, the authors typically expanded the concept and classification of Danxia Landform and, on the basis of previous researchers’ work, further studied and investigated the accurate definition and scope of application of Danxia Landform.
