WHAT DOES FIORD MEAN IN POLISH?

Fjord

Fiord

Fiord - a kind of deep bay, heavily inland, often branched, with characteristic steep edges, formed by the flooding of post-glacial and glacial valleys. Fiords are a characteristic feature of the peri-natal landscape of the coast of Norway and Scotland, Greenland, Iceland, New Zealand, Labrador Peninsula, Chilean Patagonia and Alaska. The name "fjord" is also referred to as the Adriatic Kotor Bay in Montenegro, but it is not of glacial origin - it is a flooded river valley, or rias. Fossils lacking high seas are among others. in Denmark: Lammefjord has been largely drained in the last two centuries and turned into a fertile polder. In the Lammefjord, as depressed, is the lowest point in Denmark.

Fiord – rodzaj głębokiej zatoki, mocno wcinającej się w głąb lądu, często rozgałęzionej, z charakterystycznymi stromymi brzegami, powstałej przez zalanie żłobów i dolin polodowcowych. Fiordy są charakterystycznym elementem peryglacjalnego krajobrazu wybrzeży Norwegii oraz Szkocji, Grenlandii, Islandii, Nowej Zelandii, półwyspu Labrador, chilijskiej Patagonii i Alaski. Błędnie nazwą „fiord” określa się również adriatycką Zatokę Kotorską w Czarnogórze, nie jest ona jednak pochodzenia lodowcowego – jest to zalana dolina rzeczna, czyli rias. Fiordy pozbawione wysokich brzegów występują m.in. w Danii: Lammefjord został w większej części osuszony w ostatnich dwóch stuleciach i zamieniony na żyzny polder. W Lammefjord, jako depresji, znajduje się najniższy punkt Danii.
