摘要: 石城国家地质公园位于江西省赣州市,以丹霞地貌景观为主要旅游资源,以发育在红色砂岩中的龟裂地貌为特色。不同类型的龟裂地貌组合成为栩栩如生的象形景观,尤以龟寿石和仙人犁田最引人注目。通过野外地质调查,总结了园区丹霞地貌景观类型和特征,认为它们主要是晚白垩世陆相红层受到构造抬升、断裂切割、岩性组成、流水侵蚀及风化作用形成的,砂岩独特的龟裂地貌主要是风化作用的结果。近些年来,石城国家地质公园旅游发展虽然取得了明显进步,但主要还停留在观光旅游层面。在国家提倡科普教育、研学旅行的背景下,园区应与广东丹霞山、福建泰宁、江西龙虎山等世界地质公园开展交流与合作,借鉴成功经验; 增加科研投入,为提升景区研学质量提供基础研究资料。Abstract: The Shicheng National Geopark is located in Ganzhou City of Jiangxi Province, with Danxia landscapes as the main tourism resources and distinguished by polygonal cracks on red sandstone outcrops. A variety of iconic landforms are formed by spatial arrangement of polygonal cracks, among which the Guishou(giant turtle-like)stone and Xianrenlitian(large regular cracking)scenery sites are the most fascinating. The types and features of Danxia landscapes are summarized through field geological survey in the geopark. The results show that the Danxia landscapes are mainly formed by the combination of tectonic uplift, fault incision, lithology, fluvial erosion and weathering of the terrestrial Late Cretaceous red beds. The peculiar polygonal cracks are mainly produced by weathering. In recent years, the geopark has made significant progress in tourism development, but remains at the level of sightseeing tour. Under the background of national call for science popularization education and learning trips, it is necessary for the geopark to conduct close communication and cooperation with the Danxiashan of Guangdong, Taining of Fujian, and Longhushan of Jiangxi Provinces to learn successful experiences. Meanwhile, it is suggested the investment on scientific research should be increased to provide basic research data for improving the quality of learning trips.
