The city of Noloswal lies at the mouth of the Tanier river, in the land of the Serpent-Goddess Seshna. One of my favourite pieces for Ships & Shores of Southern Genertela that I've been dying to share for ages.

After over 70 hours and 6 months of work, the Topographic Map for Jom'Gol is completed. I present to you the proper elevation map of Jom'Gol complete with tectonics, orogeny, land topography, and oceanic topography. (Legend in top left corner)
2 Billion years of continental tectonic work to achieve this. A lot of sweat, calculations, and tears were put into the final result, and now I can finally move on with the rest of my progress (ocean currents, biomes, air cells, etc).
Some points of particular interest on this map:
The oceanic basin in the center of all the continents is a very ancient ocean that is only now being converged on by the surrounding continental plates. The oceanic plate is submerged under them as they converge, creating deep trenches on the plate boundaries.
As the plates move inward and collide, a massive Himalayan mountain range forms, larger than North America in width (East-West), and towering many kilometers into the sky.
The lone continent drifting in the sea west of the converging supercontinent, although it may not look very sizable, is larger than the African continent on Earth (North-South). Its isolation from the rest lends it to not only one of the most unique biospheres on the planet but also the deepest trench on Jom'Gol to the west of its converging boundary.
More work from the Jom'Gol Project coming soon!

Had another lab session for Physical Geography where we learnt about and studied sedimentary and metamorphic rocks.

Just out of curiosity, If I decided to post my combination of every map of Narnia and Adjoining Lands + the Eastern Sea, how many people would be interested in seeing it, because I would like to share it because I have spent a lot of time on it. It is not yet finished and won’t be for a few months but when it is…

So I’m making a fantasy map thing bc I feel like it, but I’m realizing that I’m really clueless when it comes to geography and cartography and such. I figured that tumblr would probably have people who knew an unreasonable amount about map making and how environments work, so here we are.

Normal (?) map with a little key
Tumblr media
Topographic(?) map, lighter colors are higher altitudes and darker colors are lower altitudes. Nothing quantified yet, mostly just vibes.
Tumblr media
And a little of both. It’s not stylized or anything, just putting ideas into something I can see.

Stromatolites! | Estromatólitos!
🇬🇧
Stromatolites are fascinating geological structures that hold crucial information about the early history of life on Earth. These formations are layered structures created by the activity of microbial communities, primarily cyanobacteria, in shallow aquatic environments. These ancient photosynthetic microorganisms played a significant role in Earth's early atmosphere by releasing oxygen as a byproduct of photosynthesis. The ability of cyanobacteria to thrive in such environments, including hypersaline or hot spring environments, makes stromatolites important environmental indicators.
They form through the trapping, binding, and precipitation of minerals by the sticky biofilms produced by microbial mats. The layering results from the repeated growth of these microbial communities over time. They have an extensive geological history, with some of the oldest known examples dating back over 3.5 billion years. These ancient structures provide valuable insights into the conditions and types of life that existed on Earth during its early stages.
The study of stromatolites has implications beyond Earth. Examining these ancient structures helps scientists in their search for signs of past or present life on other planets, providing a potential template for what to look for in extraterrestrial environments. While stromatolites were more prevalent in ancient times, they still exist today in a few select locations worldwide. Shark Bay in Western Australia is famous for its living stromatolites, providing a unique opportunity to study these ancient life forms in a contemporary setting.
The study of stromatolites is crucial for understanding the evolution of life on Earth. The layered structures provide a record of the interactions between early microbial life and the changing environment, offering glimpses into the development of complex ecosystems. They are remarkable geological features that offer a glimpse into Earth's ancient past and the early forms of life that shaped our planet! Studying these structures contributes not only to our understanding of Earth's history but also to the broader field of astrobiology as we explore the potential for life beyond our planet.

Estromatólitos são estruturas geológicas fascinantes que contêm informações cruciais sobre a história inicial da vida na Terra. Essas formações são estruturas em camadas criadas pela atividade de comunidades microbianas, principalmente cianobactérias, em ambientes aquáticos rasos. Esses microrganismos fotossintéticos antigos desempenharam um papel significativo na atmosfera inicial da Terra, liberando oxigênio como subproduto da fotossíntese. A capacidade das cianobactérias de prosperar em ambientes extremos, incluindo ambientes hipersalinos ou de água termal, torna os estromatolitos indicadores ambientais importantes.
Eles se formam pela captura, ligação e precipitação de minerais pelos biofilmes pegajosos produzidos por tapetes microbianos. A formação em camadas resulta do crescimento repetido dessas comunidades microbianas ao longo do tempo. Eles têm uma extensa história geológica, com alguns dos exemplos mais antigos datando de mais de 3,5 bilhões de anos. Essas estruturas antigas fornecem dados sobre as condições e os tipos de vida que existiam na Terra durante seus estágios iniciais.
O estudo dos estromatolitos tem implicações além da Terra. Examinar essas estruturas antigas ajuda os cientistas em sua busca por sinais de vida passada ou presente em outros planetas, fornecendo um modelo potencial do que procurar em ambientes extraterrestres. Embora os estromatolitos fossem mais prevalentes em tempos antigos, ainda existem hoje em poucos locais selecionados em todo o mundo. Shark Bay, na Austrália Ocidental, é famosa por seus estromatolitos vivos, proporcionando uma oportunidade única de estudar essas formas de vida antigas em um ambiente contemporâneo.
O estudo dos estromatolitos é crucial para entender a evolução da vida na Terra. As estruturas em camadas fornecem um registro das interações entre a vida microbiana inicial e o ambiente em mudança, oferecendo vislumbres do desenvolvimento de ecossistemas complexos. Eles são características geológicas notáveis que oferecem uma visão do passado antigo da Terra e das formas iniciais de vida que moldaram nosso planeta! O estudo dessas estruturas contribui não apenas para nossa compreensão da história da Terra, mas também para o campo mais amplo da astrobiologia, enquanto exploramos o potencial de vida além do nosso planeta.
