海穴
Grotto
澳洲海岸線綿長,「海穴」是其中一個地理特徵,當水積聚,並慢慢滲透,最終腐蝕地表,形成大坑,就是「海穴」了。
Australia has a beautiful long coast line. ‘Grotto’ is one of the many geographic features.
-
Water fills a swampy depression.
-
Water seeps through the clay surface to the limestone below.
-
Weak acids begin to dissolve the limestone layers.
-
A sinkhole is formed which, in time, becomes bigger and shapes the Grotto.
