fjord

fjord是英語名詞，源自挪威語“fjǫrðr”，特指兩側由陡峭懸崖夾峙的狹長海灣，尤指挪威等高緯度冰川地貌地區由冰川侵蝕形成的U型谷地。

該術語主要用於描述海水深入陸地形成的狹窄通道，其形成與末次冰期冰川運動導致的地殼下沉相關。典型分布區域包括挪威西海岸、冰島及格陵蘭島等地，亦延伸至物種命名（如挪威峽灣馬）和地形分類。現代套用中，該詞涵蓋自然景觀描述、地理研究及文化場景命名（如遊戲《魔獸世界》中的“Howling Fjord”）。

辭彙起源可追溯至古諾爾斯語，與北歐航海傳統關聯密切。19世紀地質學界確立其科學定義，成為冰川地貌學專業術語。隨著地理探索發展，該詞逐漸擴展至全球類似地形特徵描述。
