Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Part of fossil sea cliff at Steigerberg hill (Permian volcanic rocks (Kreuznach Rhyolite) with Lower Oligocene (30 mya) coastal erosion features): The image shows some kind of channel. This may be the remnant of a cave formed by wave action with its "sealing" eroded during a later stage of the cliffed coast (subsequent to sea level rise). Mainz Basin, Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany[1]
Deutsch: Teil des fossilen Kliffs am Steigerberg (permisches Vulkangestein (Kreuznacher Rhyolith) mit im Unter-Oligozän (30 mya) entstandenen Küstenerosionserscheinungen): Das Bild zeigt eine Art Rinne. Hierbei könnte es sich um die Überreste einer Höhle handeln, die durch Wellentätigkeit in den Fels getrieben wurde und deren "Decke" in einem späteren Stadium der Kliffküste, nach einem Meeresspiegelanstieg, erodiert wurde. Mainzer Becken, Rheinland-Pfalz[1]
