针对目前由汶川地震诱发的地面塌陷研究尚少的现状,以北川县安昌镇开茂村水没河流域地面塌陷坑群为研究对象,根据所处的地质环境条件,通过现场调查、工程勘察及钻孔岩土试验,探讨了地震诱发的地面塌陷成因及机制。认为塌陷区第四系松散层上部含细颗粒的饱和粉土、粉质粘土和下部粗颗粒的饱和砂层、砂砾层等的存在是产生地面塌陷的前提,强烈的地震诱发了砂土液化是产生地面塌陷的内因,而塌陷坑的陆续出现说明了地面塌陷一般都有个时间发展过程,是一种渐进性质的破坏;且地下水动力条件的改变、真空吸蚀作用、余震作用以及强降雨加剧了潜蚀作用,最终导致地面塌陷的产生与发展。结果表明:这些塌陷坑群的出现主要是由地震砂土液化和潜蚀作用共同作用的结果。  相似文献

通过对广州夏茅村岩溶塌陷进行地质勘察,系统探讨了当地的地质环境条件、岩溶塌陷的灾害特征、岩溶发育条件和岩溶塌陷的形成原因。结果表明,区内第四系覆盖土层厚度大且分布不均,土洞大量发育,隐伏可溶岩的富水性好,溶洞发育;同时,覆盖层内的松散岩类孔隙水与下伏灰岩裂隙溶洞水之间的水力联系密切,含水砂层内地下水位的改变会直接引起下伏灰岩裂隙溶洞水的水位波动,构成岩溶塌陷的水动力因素;钻孔桩施工时钻孔揭穿覆盖层内土洞顶部的黏性土层盖板,造成盖板上部的细砂及淤泥流入土洞,是岩溶塌陷的直接触发因素。在此基础上,提出建立岩溶分布区的地下水动态长期监测网,对岩溶塌陷地段进行灌浆处理,是根治夏茅村岩溶塌陷的主要有效途径。  相似文献

干旱区绿洲不同土地利用方式和强度对土壤粒度分布的影响   总被引:22,自引:3,他引:19  
以干旱区三工河流域下游绿洲作为研究区,应用SPSS数理统计软件,选择12种土地利用系统,采集上层(0~20cm)和下层土壤(20-40cm)样品,分析出不同土地利用系统对土壤粒度分布的影响。研究结果表明:(1)研究区土壤主要由砂和粉砂组成,土地利用系统对砂、粉砂和粘土粒度分布的影响显著,无论上层还是下层,不同土地利用系统土壤砂、粉砂和粘土含量差异明显。(2)绿洲土壤砂含量随着土地种植年限增加有降低的趋势,而粉砂和粘土含量有增加的趋势。在不同的土地利用强度下土壤粒度分布表现出了不同的特征。土地利用强度大的一年生作物和多年生作物土壤粉砂和粘土含量较高。土壤质量得到了逐步改善;而受人类活动干扰较小的土地利用系统土壤砂和粉砂含量高,土壤质地差。说明干旱区绿洲的人类农业活动基本趋于合理。绿洲生态环境正逐步得到改善并持续发展。  相似文献

Soil texture greatly influences soil water movement, thus may affect the water balance and vegetation growth in the desert–Loess Plateau transition zone. This study is to determine if the water balance differs in homogeneous and layered soils with Caragana korshinkii stands in semiarid region. Soil water measurements up to 500-cm depth were taken in 2006 and 2007 on homogeneous sandy soil, homogeneous silt loam soil, and layered soil with sand overlying silt loam. HYDRUS-1D was used to simulate the soil water balance. The results indicated the annual water balance components were greatly affected by soil layering. The ratio of average actual evapotranspiration (ETa) to precipitation (P) during the two years in the layered soil was slightly lower than that in homogeneous soils. The ratios of annual actual transpiration (Tr) to evapotranspiration were 50.9%, 41.2% and 30.6% in layered soil, homogeneous sandy soil, and homogeneous silt loam soil, respectively. C. korshinkii grown in layered soil had deeper soil water recharge and higher Tr/ETa ratio, thus had more available water for transpiration than that in homogeneous soils. This study suggested the layered soil with sand overlying silt loam is more favorable to C. korshinkii growth in terms of water use than homogeneous soils in the desert–Loess Plateau transition zone.  相似文献

黄河三角洲沉积物的自然固结压实过程及其影响   总被引:15,自引:2,他引:13  
对黄河三角洲及下伏沉积物的压实量和压实过程及其引起的地面沉降进行了分析研究。分析认为,在厚度为15 m的新淤积的黄河三角洲沉积重压下,前三角洲粘土和下伏海相粘土总固结量可达约1.35 m,海湾或烂泥湾及前三角洲和海相粘土总压缩量为1.48 m。这些粘土层在亚三角洲建设时期就开始受压固结,但是在亚三角洲废弃后,仍要经过几十年自然固结才会基本完成。除去前10年的固结量,前三角洲粘土与下伏海相粘土叠加形成的14 m厚粘土在随后的27年内可能会压缩50 cm;而海湾或烂泥湾及前三角洲和海相粘土叠加成的20 m厚粘土在50年内可能会压缩86 cm,两者的年平均压缩速率都超过17 mm/a。固结量和速率与上负沉积物重量成正比,而亚三角洲沉积厚度从沉积中心向外围逐渐减少,所以下伏粘土固结量和速率也向周围逐渐降低。但从亚三角洲沉积厚度分布情况看,在大范围内,下伏粘土固结引起的地面沉降在几十年内都将比较明显,从而可能加重三角洲地区风暴潮和海岸侵蚀灾害,降低已有灾害防治工程的作用。  相似文献

We provide textural, geochemical, and mineralogical data on a thin, silty deposit that unconformably mantles glaciated uplands in the eastern Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Previous research on this deposit, which we hypothesize to be loess, is nonexistent. The uplands were islands or narrow peninsulas within one or more glacial lakes. We compare the distribution, likely source and nature of the 20–60 cm thick silty mantle by using the loess formation model of Mason et al. [Mason, J.A., Nater, E.A., Zanner, C.W., Bell, J.C., 1999. A new model of topographic effects on the distribution of loess. Geomorphology 28, 223–236], which focuses on the generation of eolian silt by saltating sand across upwind, barren surfaces. Parabolic dunes, with arms open to the NW, are common on former lake floors upwind of the silt-mantled uplands, attesting to the strength and direction of paleowinds. The abrupt termination of the dunes at the footslopes of the uplands, associated with silt deposition on upland soil surfaces in downwind locations, are both consistent with the model of Mason et al. [Mason, J.A., Nater, E.A., Zanner, C.W., Bell, J.C., 1999. A new model of topographic effects on the distribution of loess. Geomorphology 28, 223−236]. Sediments on former lake floors contain abundant strata of fine/medium sand and silt, and thus are likely sources for the silt and dune sand. The cap, dune and lake sediments are similar along many different geochemical axes, whereas the substrate sediment, i.e., the drift below the cap, is unique. Cap sediments, normally containing roughly 30% silt, are enriched in quartz and depleted in Ti and Zr, relative to dune sediment. The dune sediment, a more residual eolian deposit, is enriched in Ti and Zr, relative to the cap, probably due to its greater abundance of heavy minerals. Therefore, we conclude that the silty cap is loess that was deflated from abandoned lake floors after nearby glacial lakes drained, probably contemporaneously with dune migration across the former lake floors.  相似文献

土地利用方式对西藏东部河谷山地土壤肥力性质的影响   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
通过现场调查取样和室内理化分析,研究了西藏东部主要河谷地区不同土地利用方式下土壤肥力性质及其随土地利用方式变化的机制。结果表明:不同土地利用方式下土壤理化性质有明显的差异,耕地和裸地土壤砂粒含量高于其他利用方式,本区域土壤砂质特征明显;受有机质积累影响,乔木林地、灌丛地土壤具有相对较高N素养分;受施肥等因素影响,农耕地土壤具有相对较高P、K养分;在所有利用方式中,裸地土壤尽管具有相对较高的粉粒含量,但所有养分指标均最低,显著低于林地土壤。总之,对于西藏脆弱生境而言,耕作使得有机质更易于消耗。由于有机质与植被之间存在明显互相促进的作用,因此维持土壤有机质平衡对于恢复植被、保护青藏高原东缘生态屏障具有重要的意义。  相似文献

詹瑾  李玉霖  韩丹  杨红玲 《中国沙漠》2019,39(6):184-191
为探究放牧对丘间低地植被群落及土壤的影响,分析了浑善达克沙地丘间低地在重度和轻度放牧下植被的地上生物量、物种重要值、物种丰富度、Shannon-Wiener多样性指数、Pielou均匀度指数、Simpson生态优势度指数及0~10 cm土壤中黏粒、粉粒、砂粒、有机碳和全氮含量。结果表明:(1)植被地上生物量、土壤黏粒、粉粒、砂粒、土壤有机碳和全氮含量在不同放牧程度下存在极显著差异(P<0.01),物种丰富度、Shannon-Wiener多样性指数和Pielou均匀度指数在不同放牧程度下差异不显著(P>0.05),Simpson生态优势度指数在不同放牧程度下差异显著(P<0.05)。(2)放牧区植被以禾本科为主,禾本科植被地上生物量占整个植被群落的54.88%~57.76%;重度放牧区植被地上生物量为63.59 g·m-2,比轻度放牧区低26.61%。(3)羊草(Leymus chinensis)和狗尾草(Setaria viridis)是放牧区的优势种,其重要值依次为14.16%(重度放牧区)和19.10%(轻度放牧区)、13.40%(重度放牧区)和15.42%(轻度放牧区),重度放牧下雾滨藜(Bassia dasyphylla)、克氏针茅(Stipa krylovii)和猪毛蒿(Artemisia scoparia)的重要值较显著高于轻度放牧区,而羊草则低于轻度放牧区。(4)重度放牧加剧了土壤沙漠化,使砂粒含量增加,草地生产力下降,土壤有机碳和全氮含量降低。  相似文献

风蚀影响因子的敏感性试验   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
 对风蚀模式的各重要影响因子进行了敏感性试验,结果表明:①随风力的增大,跃动沙粒的粒径范围迅速增大,从而会使更多、更大的尘粒因受到更强烈的撞击作用而释放于空中。但随土壤水分和植被覆盖度的增加,跃动沙粒粒径范围会变窄,较大的粒子很难被激发到空中。②各种土壤沙流通量及尘粒释放率随粒径的变化趋势Q(d)和F(d)与相应的地表土壤有效粒度分布Ps(d)具有相似的特征,说明前人用近地层沙尘粒度分布来代表地表土壤的有效粒度分布是合理的。③若以总沙流通量Q>0.5 g·m-1·s-1为风蚀过程开始发生的标准,在干燥、裸露的情况下,沙土、沙壤土、壤土、黏土和粉黏土表面发生风蚀的临界摩擦速度都约为0.3 m·s-1。相同风力条件下(u*=0.6 m·s-1),若地表干燥(w=0)并忽略小于0.1 g·m-1·s-1的总沙流通量,则抑制5种土壤发生风蚀的最小植被覆盖度分别约为:沙土0.35、沙壤土0.45、壤土0.45、黏土0.55、粉黏土0.55;若地表裸露,抑制风蚀发生的最小水分含量分别为:沙土0.15、沙壤土0.18、壤土0.3、黏土0.36和粉黏土0.33。④通常情况下沙土最不易起尘,它在各个粒径的尘粒释放率比其他土壤均约小3~5个量级。粉黏土最易起尘,且粒径较小,较容易传输到下游很远处。⑤总尘粒释放率F和总沙流通量Q随风力、地表条件的变化一般是同相的,即Q增大,F也会增大。⑥一般情况下F随摩擦速度u*的增大或植被覆盖度cf和土壤水分w的减小而增大;土壤拖曳系数sx和弹性压力垂直分量pye的增加会大大降低尘粒释放率。⑦通常风蚀情况下,5种土壤中粉黏土和沙壤土因聚合粒子破碎产生的尘粒释放率Fc最大,Fc随风力、地表条件变化的敏感度也最强;沙土的Fc最小,其对风力、地表条件的敏感度也最弱。  相似文献

On sloping sandy agricultural soil sites near Toronto, Canada, summer storms adequate to generate runoff occur frequently, but rill development occurs mainly in spring when snowmelt or rainfall-induced runoff occurs above frozen subsoil. This suggests that on low and moderate slopes on these soils rill initiation is controlled primarily by hydraulic impedance close to the surface, rather than critical hydraulic conditions in runoff. Laboratory flume experiments were carried out on 10 m slopes at 1.5°, 5° and 9° with loamy sand/clay composite soil sample to test this hypothesis. Runoff with hydraulic conditions adequate for rill initiation occurred rapidly in most tests, but on 1.5° and 5° slopes little knickpoint scour or sediment transport occurred before water table development. This coincided with reduced surface soil strength, knickpoint scour and marked increase in sediment discharge, particularly on 5° slopes where increase was 20- to 30-fold. Further increase in sediment discharge occurred when water tables reached the surface. On 9° slopes runoff occurred more quickly, with higher hydraulic values. Significant rill incision and sediment discharge occurred well before water table development, and ultimately reached much higher values than on lower slopes. Results show that soil erodibility can change dramatically over short time periods during storms due to soil moisture conditions, and that the presence of a hydraulic impedance close to the surface which causes a perched water table to develop can strongly influence rill incision and sediment transport. The influence is unlikely to be marked on soils which are very erodible regardless of moisture conditions, or on extremely resistant soils. It will also be limited on very gentle or steep sites, but can be a significant factor in rill development on intermediate slopes.  相似文献

Ultrasonic P-wave tests of frozen silt and frozen sand were conducted during uniaxial loading by using an RSM®-SY5(T) nonmetal ultrasonic test meter to study the velocity characteristics of P-waves. The experimental results indicate that the P-wave velocity is affected by soil materials, temperature, and external loads, so the P-wave velocity is different in frozen silt and frozen sand, but all decrease with an increase of temperature and increase at first and then decrease with strain during the loading process. There is an exponential relationship between uniaxial compressive strength and P-wave velocity, and the correlation between them is very good. The characteristic parameters of acoustic waves can, to some extent, reflect the development of internal cracks in frozen soils during loading.  相似文献

青海湖滨土地沙漠化驱动机制   总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0  
姚正毅  李晓英  肖建华 《中国沙漠》2015,35(6):1429-1437
在自然因素和不合理人为活动的影响下,青海湖流域及其周边地区正面临土地沙漠化、湿地萎缩、草场退化、水土流失等严重的生态环境问题。本文分析了青海湖滨土地沙漠化现状及其驱动因素。结果表明:青海湖滨广泛分布的古风沙沉积物是现代沙漠化的沙物质来源,现代流动沙丘的粒度特征与古风成沙丘粒度极为相似,两者的继承与改造关系极为明显。草皮层及其下的粉沙土层是古沙丘的保护层。保护层的机械破坏,使下伏松散的古风沙沉积物暴露,是形成沙漠化的关键一步。随后在风蚀、雨水冲刷及其他因素的共同作用下,松散的古风沙沉积物被侵蚀,引起草皮层坍塌,导致古沙丘活化,风沙活动加剧,形成风沙沉积。流水侵蚀和地层沉陷是导致草皮层机械破坏的主要因素。青海湖水位下降,河流沉积,风沙入湖,都可使沙地面积增加,但仅限于湖边局部地方。  相似文献

South-eastern Spain can be considered as a model of desertification in the Mediterranean environment. The desertification intensity varies according to two different geomorphological areas: glacis and badlands. The modal soil of the glacis area is calcic Luvisol, for which the severity of degradation depends on the degree of aridity and human activities, which give rise to the following degradation series: calcic Luvisol – luvic Calcisol – haplic, petric or aridic Calcisol. The badland area is more desertified than the glacis area. The modal soils in the badland area depend exclusively on the parent material: aridic Arenosols on sand; eutric, calcaric or gypsiric Regosols on silt and calcilutite; aric Gypsisols on gypsum; and aric Solonchaks on parent material rich in halite. Luvisols, Gypsisols and Solonchaks can be considered relict paleosols that developed in a wetter climate than the prevailing arid conditions that make clay illuviation or the formation of gypsic or salic horizons impossible. Soil quality reduction is shown by creating a database for soils’ physical and chemical properties, ranging in classes that facilitate the use of these properties as an effective tool for decision making with regard to desertification.  相似文献

长江口拦门沙河段潮滩表层沉积物分布特征(英文)   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
Sediment samples with high spatial resolution (432 samples in total) and flow data were collected on the tidal flats in the mouth-bar region of the Yangtze Estuary. The data was collected in July 2005, July 2006 and May 2007. The samples were analyzed with a particle sizer, resulting in the sediment distribution. The grain sizes and related parameters were analyzed. The results were presented in a ternary diagram. The sediment mainly consisted of sand, silty sand, sandy silt, sand-silt-clay, silt and clayey silt. And sand skeletons and clay matrices were found. At Nanhui Shoal, silt skeletons could be identified as well. Furthermore, the results were discussed per shoal. Although some depth dependencies were found per shoal, no general relation was found. The results are as follows: sediment located at these tidal flats of the Yangtze Estuary was mainly composed of sand, silty sand and silt. The median grain size in sediment was relatively complex with a range from 2.5 φ to 8 φ. The distributions of sorting coefficients ranging from 1 to 2 were in agreement with median sizes. It was suggested that sediment of the tidal flats was coarser and better sorted or finer and worse sorted. The skewness in sediment distribution varied from 0.1 to 0.8. In addition, the distributions of sorting coefficient and skewness in sediment at Chongming Eastern Shoal, Hengsha Eastern Shoal and Jiuduan Shoal were of similar characteristics because there were closely positive correlated relationships among these parameters. However, due to the location difference between Nanhui Southern Shoal and Eastern Shoal, the values of sorting coefficient and skewness had relatively large distinctions. The tracks of sediment transport could be described based on the distributions of sediment, which might reveal sediment transport controlled by two dominant hydrodynamic factors of current and wave. It was appreciable that coarser sediment with lower sorted coefficient was affected by dominant ebb current action and intense wave action resulted from rapidly dissipated wave energy. Moreover, due to the effects of obstructed branches, guided current and broken wave actions of the Deep Water Channel Project, grain-size in sediment located at two sides of the groyne was of uneven distribution characteristics.  相似文献
