Geologic processes buried and shifted the shoreline footprints to the cave's ceiling, 500 meters deep.

地质过程埋葬了这些脚印，并将脚印从海岸线转移到洞穴500米深处的顶部。

We do understand that the dominant geologic process that affected Mercury, or at least Mercury's surface is impact cratering.

我们知道，水星的地质演化中陨石撞击坑是主要的影响。

Over a geologic process lasting tens of millions of years that is still ongoing, magma flowed up through the plume toward the bottom of the Pacific Ocean which then cooled into rock and steadily built up into a volcano.

在持续数千万年的地质过程中，岩浆通过火山羽流向太平洋底部，然后冷却成岩石，并逐渐形成火山。

While the specific geologic processes and timing that formed the Grand Canyon are the subject of debate by geologists, recent evidence suggests the Colorado River established its course through the canyon at least 17 million years ago.

虽然形成 Grand Canyon 的具体地质过程和时间是地质学家争论的主题，但最近的证据表明，科罗拉多河至少在 1700 万年前就已经确定了流经峡谷的路线。
