In the mid-low mountain areas, the existence of Quaternary glacier as well as its range and nature are always controversial. The glacial paleogeomorphology of Northeast China had been extensively studied and explored. The results revealed that Quaternary glaciers was developed in the northern part of Great Hinggan Ranges and Changbai Mountains. However, some scholars believed that the development of the Quaternary glaciers in China resulted from tectonic coupling and close relation with the elevation of mountains. In Northeast China, glaciation did not occur in any mid-low mountain areas during the Quaternary except the Changbai Mountains where the elevation is more than 2600 m. The question is whether glaciation occurred in the mid-low mountain areas of Northeast China during the Quaternary? In order to clarify this question, this paper reports the Quaternary glacial remains of Tala Mountain, which were newly discovered in Ar Horqin Banner, lnner Mongolia and their age dating.展开更多

The main quantitative indicators include uplift amplitude of the Moho, Quaternary and Late Holocene coasts. The paper also gives a brief account of the research method on quantitative indicators of surface uplifted zones. Taiwan is a famous neotectonic zone and an area of large earthquakes in the world. There is only one large-earthquake area in each of Fujian, Guangdong and Hainan Provinces. Along the coast large earthquake areas there are certainly many remains of crustal activity. Among these remains, coast activity, taking the sea level as the accurate marker horizon, can determine not only the amplitude of coastal elevation and subsidence in a certain period, but also the cycle and rate of positive or negative movements.展开更多
