 孔島(くしま)・鈴島(すずしま)

鈴島では牟婁付加体の砂岩層が垂直に傾く特徴的な景観が見られます。孔島には牟婁付加体と熊野層群があり、波食棚の南側で両者の不整合、波食棚の東側で両者の断層関係が観察できます。鈴島にはヤッコカンザシなどの隆起生物遺骸群集があり、南海トラフ地震による隆起の痕跡として知られます。孔島は国際的な希少鳥類であるウチヤマセンニュウの繁殖地です。


On Suzushima, you can see a characteristic landscape where the sandstone layer of the accretionary
prism stands vertically. However, Kushima has both the Muro accretionary prism and the Kumano Group,
and the mismatch between the two geological formations can be observed on the south-side of the
wave-cut platform. The fault relationship can also be seen between the two on the east side of the
wave-cut platform. There is a community of creatures lifted from the ocean such as the blue coral-worm on Suzushima. This is a trace of an uplift caused by the Nankai Trough Earthquake. Meanwhile, Kushima
is a breeding ground for Styan's Grasshopper Warbler, an internationally rare bird.
