再论广州七星岗海蚀地形发现的意义

Re-discussion on the Significance of the Discovery of a Marine Erosion Landform in Qixinggang of Guangzhou

自从笔者发现刊于中山大学日报1937-05-20的《十公尺海蚀台地之发现》一文后,吴尚时已被公认是广州七星岗海蚀地形、珠江三角洲地区古珠江河口湾海蚀地形的发现者。七星岗海蚀地形同珠江三角洲的演变紧密联系,对七星岗海蚀地形的研究与讨论,推动了广州地区地质地貌学的发展。其集中体现在珠江三角洲的形成与发展研究方面,科研成果累累,科学人才辈出。认为应进一步保护好七星岗海蚀地形遗迹,充分发挥它的积极作用。

After an article 《La d＇couverte une ancienne plate -rome d＇abrasion marine》 （in French） by Wu Shang-shi published in the newspaper Zhongshan University Daily in 1937-05-20 came to light Wu Shang-shi was considered as the discoverer of the marine erosion landform in Qixinggang （Qixing Hill） of Guangzhou, which is a sea eroded landform in ancient Pearl River estuary of Pearl River Delta region. The sea eroded landform in Qixinggang is closely related to the evolution of the Pearl River Delta. The research and discussions about the marine erosion landform in Qixinggang have helped pushing forward the geological and geomorphological studies of Guangzhou region, particularly the research of the formation and development of the Pearl River Delta, yielding greatly in scientific research publications and training new generations of scientists. It is necessary for the natural history remain of the sea eroded landform in Qixinggang be protected and its significance be realized in full.
