什么杂志上看过一个照片，一个女的在月亮山的拱形中间挂着。这种重要景点不该开放攀岩的，要不
山都毁了。
类似于这个。 | c**i

I agree with you. When reading the report, I noticed the mountains are of
limestone, a crystal form of calcium carbonate. I worried the stone might
crack.
Having read your reply, I just now went to scientific archive and web.
Surprisingly I found nothing about harming rock. I did find a report that
allegedly was the first on biodiversity.

the Niagara Escarpment in Southern Ontario, Canada. Conservation Biology 16

Snail Community of the Niagara Escarpment in Southern Ontario, Canada.

In my view, the differences were minor, even trivial (not as alarming as I
imagined yesterday). Then, the principal investor, Dr. Larson, seems to
negate the (few) unfavorable research reports up to that point by presenting
Kuntz KL and Larson DW, Influences of microhabitat constraints and rock-
climbing disturbance on cliff-face vegetation communities. Conserv Biol 20:
821-32 (2006).

(Abstract: "Most work on climbing disturbance, however, has not controlled
for variation in microsite characteristics when comparing areas with and
without climbing presence. * * * [After introduction of control, as any
scientific experiment should, the authors found:] Climbed sites had not
diverged toward a separate vegetation community; instead, they supported a
subset of the species found on pristine cliff faces.")

月亮山是阳朔的一个重要景点，一个天然的拱形，空洞处远看像月亮的形状。Arches
NP里大概不
会让人在那些拱上面爬上爬下吧。这个道理也一样。周边其他的山不计其数，攀岩的不
