中国台湾省是一个多火山的岛。千万年以前,太平洋洋壳插到周围的亚洲、北美洲和南美洲陆壳之下,摩擦产生的高热使地壳熔化成的炽热的岩浆沿裂隙蹿出地表,喷发后形成了火山和岛屿,被称为环太平洋火山链。台湾的86个岛,除了本岛是地壳挤压抬升的产物以及小琉球是由沉积岩与珊瑚礁构成,其他都是火山的子孙。 Taiwan Province of China is a volcanic island. Thousands of years ago, the Pacific Ocean plunged into the surrounding continental crust in Asia, North America and South America. The high heat generated by the friction caused the hot magma melted by the crust to emerge along the fissure and formed volcanoes and islands after the eruption. Known as the Pacific Rim volcano chain. Taiwan’s 86 islands, except the island crust is the product of crustal uplift and the small Ryukyu is composed of sedimentary rocks and coral reefs, the other is the volcano’s descendants.
