摘要
介绍了晚新生代全球构造地貌与环境变化研究中的一些重要进展 ,这主要集中在大陆的构造隆升、板内造山带与大陆穹隆的形成、全球海平面变化、边缘海的“窗口”作用、水道的开启与关闭等方面。上述研究进展表明 ,地球各圈层的相互作用是塑造现今地球构造地貌格局和驱动全球环境变化的重要因素。从地球的整体行为出发 ,研究长时间尺度 (Ma)岩石圈结构变异与全球环境变化间的耦合反馈关系 ,是今后工作值得注意的一个方向。
The progress in studies of the late Cenozoic global structural geomorphology and environmental change are introduced briefly focused on the following subjects: the global tectonic uplift; the formation of intraplate orogens and arches; the undulation of global sea level; the closure and open of some key ocean gateways. The progress in these studies showed that the multi-sphere interaction of the Earth is the most important cause of modern global structural geomorphology and the change of environment. On the basis of the integration of the multi-sphere Earth, the research on the coupling between the change of lithosphere configuration on geological time scale (Ma) and the global environmental change would be worthy to be paid much attention to.
