摘要:The geological survey was made over an area including Meholmen, Nesoya, and East Ongul Islands as well as Langhovde on the coast of the continent just south of the islands. The islands are flat-topped owing to glaciation, the highest point being only several tens of meters above sea level. However, as a result of differential erosion, the banding or foliation of the gneiss which constitutes the islands is well represented as low continuous ridges and troughs on the surface of the islands. Langhovde shows similar topography and surface feature and its highest point lies at about 500 m above sea level.
