摘要
为了更好地保护和利用恐龙化石,目前我国建立了18个以恐龙化石为主题的地质公园。以这18个恐龙化石类地质公园为研究对象,首先依据恐龙化石的特点对它们进行分类,然后根据恐龙化石的区域演化特征分析我国恐龙化石类地质公园的分布特征,最后阐述恐龙化石类地质公园的建立对科学研究、教育以及经济发展的价值。我国恐龙类地质公园以恐龙化石产地为依托而建立,西(西南)部以侏罗纪恐龙动物群化石为主,东部、北部、东北部地区以白垩纪恐龙动物群化石为主。恐龙类地质公园的建立不仅有科普教育和旅游观光价值,而且对地球历史、古生物学、地层学、沉积学的研究有重要的科学价值。
China has set up 18 dinosaur fossil geoparks in order to protect and preserve the rare dinosaur fossils. This paper classifies these geoparks based on different types of dinosaur fossils, analyzes their distribution characteristics according to the dinosaur fossils spatial evolution, and presents the values of geoparks to science, education and economy. China's dinosaur fossil geoparks were constructed at the locations where dinosaur fossils were discovered. The Jurassic dinosaur fossils were unearthed mainly in the (south)west of China, while the Cretaceous dinosaur fossils were discovered chiefly in the east, north and north-east of China. The establishment of dinosaur geoparks is valuable to science population and tourism, as well as the scientific studies on earth history, paleontology, stratigraphy and sedimentology.
