中文注释:1980年华盛顿浮石平原的圣海伦火山爆发,这里的植物死亡。现在浮石平原又长满了植物。尽管火山爆发后,强大的火山灰流(热气体与尘土的混合物)腐蚀着这些植物,但在几年后,平原上那羽扇豆的紫色花朵再次绽放,加速了这片土地的复苏。图片为国家地理杂志2000年5月的“圣海伦火山:自然环境在迅速发展”拍摄,未发表。 作者: Jim Richardson
浮石平原 圣海伦火山 华盛顿 图片故事:高清壁纸:英文注释:View of Pumice Plain and Mount St. Helens, Washington, 2000 Vegetation has returned to the scenery of Washington’s Pumice Plain, which was stripped of life after Mount St. Helens erupted in 1980. Despite the immense pyroclastic flow (a mix of hot gas and ash) that scoured these plains after the eruption, the purple flowers of prairie lupines appeared within a few years and accelerated the landscape’s recovery.
