Some interesting info about Aberdeen. Aberdeen
is Scotland's third most populous city, one of Scotland's 32
local government council areas and the United Kingdom's 25th
most populous city, with an official population estimate of
210,400.
Nicknames include the Granite City, the Grey City and the
Silver City with the Golden Sands. During the mid-18th to
mid-20th centuries, Aberdeen's buildings incorporated
locally quarried grey granite, whose mica deposits sparkle
like silver. The city has a long, sandy coastline. Since the
discovery of North Sea oil in the 1970s, other nicknames
have been the Oil Capital of Europe or the Energy Capital of
Europe. The area around Aberdeen has been settled since at
least 8,000 years ago, when prehistoric villages lay around
the mouths of the rivers Dee and Don.
In 1319, Aberdeen received Royal Burgh status from Robert
the Bruce, transforming the city economically. The city's
two universities, the University of Aberdeen, founded in
1495, and the Robert Gordon University, which was awarded
university status in 1992, make Aberdeen the educational
centre of the north-east. The traditional industries of
fishing, paper-making, shipbuilding, and textiles have been
overtaken by the oil industry and Aberdeen's seaport.
Aberdeen Heliport is one of the busiest commercial heliports
in the world and the seaport is the largest in the
north-east of Scotland.
In January 2011 Aberdeen was named one of five cities which
could help the UK climb its way out of the recession because
of its high levels of employment, abundance of skilled
workers, and an increase in the average weekly earnings.
Aberdeen City and Shire was dubbed in the report by
officials as the "one to watch" with its rapid growing
economy, size and oil reserves.
Aberdeen has won the Britain in Bloom competition a
record-breaking ten times, and hosts the Aberdeen
International Youth Festival, a major international event
which attracts up to 1000 of the most talented young
performing arts companies.
Being sited between two river mouths, the city has little
natural exposure of bedrock. This leaves local geologists in
a slight quandary : despite the high concentration of
geoscientists in the area (courtesy of the oil industry),
there is only a vague understanding of what underlays the
city. To the south side of the city, coastal cliffs expose
high-grade metamorphic rocks of the Grampian Group; to the
south-west and west are extensive granites intruded into
similar high-grade schists; to the north the metamorphics
are intruded by gabbroic complexes instead. And under the
city itself? The small amount of geophysics done, and
occasional building-related exposures, combined with small
exposures in the banks of the River Don, suggest that it's
actually sited on an inlier of Devonian "Old Red" sandstones
and silts. The outskirts of the city spread beyond the
(inferred) limits of the outlier onto the surrounding
metamorphic/ igneous complexes formed during the Dalradian
period (approximately 480-600 million years ago) with
sporadic areas of igneous Diorite granites to be found, such
as that at the Rubislaw quarry which was used to build much
of the Victorian parts of the city.
On the coast, Aberdeen has a long sand beach between the two
rivers, the Dee and the Don, which turns into high sand
dunes north of the Don stretching as far as Fraserburgh; to
the south of the Dee are steep rocky cliff faces with only
minor pebble and shingle beaches in deep inlets. A number of
granite outcrops along the south coast have been quarried in
the past, making for spectacular scenery and good
rock-climbing.
The city extends to 184.46 kmē (71.22 sq mi), and includes
the former burghs of Old Aberdeen, New Aberdeen, Woodside
and the Royal Burgh of Torry to the south of River Dee. In
2008 this gave the city a population density of 1,131 /km2
(2,929 /sq mi). The city is built on many hills, with the
original beginnings of the city growing from Castle Hill,
St. Catherine's Hill and Windmill Hill. |
