Unit 2 Lithosphere and Surface Morphology
material cycle in the lithosphere
Basic types of rocks
igneous rock
Intrusive rocks (eg. granite)
Cool slowly, crystallize fully, and have coarse particles.
Extrusive/volcanic rocks (eg. basalt)
It cools quickly and is difficult to crystallize and has pores.
Sedimentary rocks (eg. conglomerate sandstone shale mudstone limestone dolomite)
Loose accumulations consolidate into rocks, layered structures, animal and plant fossils
Metamorphic rocks (eg. marble quartzite schist slate gneiss)
Tight texture, large ρ, schistosity
interconversion of rocks
Human development and utilization of rocks
architecture
Granite, slate, marble, andesite
Produce cement
limestone,marble
artwork
marble, taihu stone
Sightseeing
granite
Huangshan, Huashan, Hengshan, Putuo Mountain
extrusive rock
Changbai Mountain, Mount Fuji
Sedimentary rock (red sandstone)
Wuyi Mountain, Danxia Mountain
metamorphic rock
Mount Tai
changes in surface morphology
Internal force effect
Earth's rotation - rotational energy, internal radioactive element decay - thermal energy
Magmatic activity, earthquakes, crustal movement
Common geological structures
folds
The anticline is uplifted and the syncline is concave
*The middle part of the anticline is lifted by tension, and the soil is soft and easily eroded. Oil and gas
*Extruded towards the chute, it is solid and not easily eroded. Water
Fold Mountains: Himalayas, Alps, Andes
fault
horst
The middle fault block rises relative to the two sides and falls
graben
The middle fault block falls relatively and the fault blocks on both sides rise
fault block mountain
Huangshan, Huashan, Taishan, Lushan
ravine, river
plate tectonics theory
Eurasian Plate, African Plate, American Plate, Indian Ocean Plate, Antarctic Plate, Pacific Plate
Split
rift valley, ocean, ridge (ocean ridge)
Great Rift Valley, Atlantic Ocean
collision
Trench, island arc, (coast) mountain range
Himalayas
minerals, geothermal resources
external force
weathering
physics, chemistry, biology
eg. Ice splitting effect, root splitting effect
erosion
Flowing water - canyons, wind - wind erosion pillars, wind erosion mushrooms, waves - sea stacks, sea cliffs, sea caves, glaciers - cirques, knife ridges, horn peaks
transport function
The midstream and upstream v↑ has strong handling capacity, while the downstream v↓ has weak handling capacity.
sinking/accumulation
mechanical deposition
Changes in physical conditions for handling external forces
chemical deposition
physical, chemical changes
biosedimentation
biological activity, biological remains
human activity
Altitude (agricultural production type, engineering construction)
heat,moisture
Altitude ↑ Planting, forestry, animal husbandry
eg. Qinghai-Tibet Railway Golmud-Lhasa Section
Surface relief (agricultural production methods)
The plain is wide and flat
Agriculture, mechanized production
Hilly and mountainous areas have large surface fluctuations and complex natural environment
Diversification
slope aspect
>7°-Terrace,>25°-Forestry/Nature Reserve
The southern slopes of mid-to-high latitudes in the Northern Hemisphere have more solar radiation than the northern slopes and have better light and heat conditions.
Windward slopes receive more precipitation and have better moisture conditions than leeward slopes.
e.g.
Urban spatial form & development scale
Lanzhou - the narrow valley along the Yellow River
Chongqing - "Mountain City", with ups and downs, well-proportioned and three-dimensional development
Northern Plains-radial/checkerboard spread
human activity
Leveling the land, digging canals, building reservoirs, mining ores, and reclamation
