  • Development and Evolution History of Regional Geological Structures

    Since the Quaternary, the Shennongjia area has been in a large-scale uneven and intermittent upward movement, which is manifested as planation surfaces, layered karst and multistage river terraces. Under the action of endogenic and exogenic geological agents, the present geological and geomorphological landscape of the area is gradually formed.

  • Main Types of Geological Heritage

    The geological relics in Shennongjia UNESCO Global Geopark are divided into 6 categories, i.e., typical geological sections, paleontological landscapes, geomorphologic landscapes, mountain landscapes, water landscapes, and geological disaster relic landscapes. Among the typical geological sections, stratigraphic units and stratigraphic boundary stratotype sections are the most abundant, while karst landforms and Quaternary glacial landforms are the most typical geological landscapes.
