Let's now visit our final reading. This reading is aimed at fieldwork, and it is about enjoying and doing geomorphology in Hong Kong. It's co-written by Raynor Shaw, who was the presenter in some of the video clips you've watched already.
This reading a sample chapter from a book title Hong Kong Landscapes. The authors use a combination of text, images, maps and diagrams to highlight the geomophological features of Hong Kong. This chapter takes us out on Stage 1 of the Maclehose Trail.

This reading shows that the country parks of Hong Kong provide outdoor labs and classrooms in which to do hands-on geology and geomorphology. In addition, the interactions between geology, ecology and geomorphology can be studied. As you might expect, the biogeochemical cycles such as the water cycle can be visualized here too.
