AbstractThe excess pore pressure accumulation is a key factor when estimating the formation mechanism of large pockmarks, as it determines the liquefaction potential of marine sediments due to water waves. The governing equations for excess pore pressure may have different forms for various types of sediments and then shall reflect the cyclic plasticity of the soil. For water waves propagating over a porous seabed, the liquefaction area induced by waves is generally progressive, which indicates that the liquefaction area will move forward following the wave train. Therefore, the excess pore pressure accumulation can be used to explain the occurrence of the large pockmarks, but the dimension of the pockmark may be related to the heterogeneity of sediment or the wave properties affected by the topography in the subaqueous Yellow River Delta. 相似文献

Models based on the theoretical framework of soil mechanics are presented to evaluate storm wave-induced silty seabed instability and geo-hazards through a case study in the Yellow River delta. First, the transient and residual mechanisms of wave-induced pore pressure are analyzed. Three typical models (i.e., elastic model, pore pressure development mode and elasto-plastic model) are proposed to calculate wave-induced stresses in the seabed. Next, mechanisms and calculation methods of wave-induced seabed instability modes such as scour, liquefaction, seepage instability and shear slide are proposed. Typical results of storm wave-induced excess pore pressure and seabed instability are given and relevant discussions are made. At last, the formation mechanism of geo-hazards in the Yellow River delta is analyzed based on the proposed mechanism and calculated results. Results and analysis indicate that both transient and residual mechanisms are important to storm wave-induced response of silty seabed and hence the elasto-plastic model is more appropriate. Complete liquefaction does not happen, while other types of instability occur mostly within 2–6 m under the seabed surface. Wave-induced scour, seepage instability and shear slide are all possible instability modes under the 1-year storm waves, and scour is predominant for the 50-year storm waves. The formation mechanism of geo-hazards such as shallow slide and storm wave reactivation, pockmarks, silt flow and gully, disturbed stratum and hard crust in the Yellow River are well explained based on the proposed mechanisms and calculated results of storm wave-induced silty seabed instability. 相似文献

Abstract This report describes the instrumentation, initial results, and progress of an experiment designed to measure and monitor submarine sediment pore water and hydrostatic pressures in a selected area of the Mississippi Delta. The experiment also is intended to monitor significant pressure perturbations during active storm periods. Initial analysis of the data revealed excess pore water pressures in the silty clay sediment at selected depths below the mudline. Continuous monitoring of the pore water and hydrostatic pressures was expected to reveal important information regarding sediment pore water pressure variations as a function of the geological processes active in the Mississippi Delta. 相似文献

About a decade ago, a large field of pockmarks (individual features up to 30 m in diameter and <2 m deep) was discovered in water depths of 15–40 m in the Bay of Concarneau in southern Brittany along the French Atlantic coast, covering an overall area of 36 km2 and characterised by unusually high pockmark densities in places reaching 2,500 per square kilometre. As revealed by geophysical swath and subbottom profile data ground-truthed by sediment cores collected during two campaigns in 2005 and 2009, the confines of the pockmark field show a spectacular spatial association with those of a vast expanse of tube mats formed by a benthic community of the suspension-feeding amphipod Haploops nirae. The present study complements those findings with subbottom chirp profiles, seabed sonar imagery and ultrasonic backscatter data from the water column acquired in April 2011. Results show that pockmark distribution is influenced by the thickness of Holocene deposits covering an Oligocene palaeo-valley system. Two groups of pockmarks were identified: (1) a group of large (>10 m diameter), more widely scattered pockmarks deeply rooted (up to 8 ms two-way travel time, TWTT) in the Holocene palaeo-valley infills, and (2) a group of smaller, more densely spaced pockmarks shallowly rooted (up to 2 ms TWTT) in interfluve deposits. Pockmark pore water analyses revealed high methane concentrations peaking at ca. 400 μl/l at 22 and 30 cm core depth in silty sediments immediately above Haploops-bearing layers. Water column data indicate acoustic plumes above pockmarks, implying ongoing pockmark activity. Pockmark gas and/or fluid expulsion resulting in increased turbidity (resuspension of, amongst others, freshly settled phytoplankton) could at least partly account for the strong spatial association with the phytoplankton-feeding H. nirae in the Bay of Concarneau, exacerbating impacts of anthropogenically induced eutrophication and growing offshore trawling activities. Tidally driven hydraulic pumping in gas-charged pockmarks represents a good candidate as large-scale short-term triggering mechanism of pockmark activation, in addition to episodic regional seismic activity. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to investigate that the effects of different hydrodynamic conditions on sediment resuspension on a tidal mudflat in the Yellow River Estuary. A field experiment was conducted on an intertidal flat of the Yellow River Delta, China. The sediment resuspension concentrations and hydrodynamic conditions were obtained in the field from September 2–7, 2013. The resuspended sediment concentrations induced by wave loading were compared with those induced by coupled wave–current actions in Yellow River Delta. The results were as follows: (1) when the wave height was higher than 10?cm and the shear stress induced by the waves was greater than the critical stress of the seabed sediments, the surface seabed was eroded and sediment was resuspended. In addition, 60% of the significant wave heights were larger than 10?cm on the intertidal flat of the Yellow River Delta. (2) The contribution of waves to sediment resuspension was greater than 30% when the significant wave height is higher than 10?cm, and the average contribution of waves to sediment resuspension was 51%. The mechanism of wave-induced sediment resuspension and processes of sediment resuspension were described in this paper. 相似文献

Pockmarks in the inner Oslofjord,Norway 总被引：5，自引：3，他引：2
Multibeam bathymetric surveys of the Inner Oslofjord, Norway have revealed a high density of pockmarks in the 179-km2 inner fjord area, which contains over 500 pockmarks of varying size, typically 20–50 m in diameter and 2–10 m deep. These
pockmarks have been investigated with a variety of techniques, including acoustic subbottom profiling, sedimentological and
geochemical analyses of cores, remotely operated vehicle observation, and morphometry. Both the distribution and shapes of
the pockmarks suggest that they are related to structures in the bedrock underlying relatively thin (<50 m) unconsolidated
glacial and postglacial sediments. The data provide no direct indication of a particular mode of pockmark formation, but release
of large amounts of biogenic, shallow methane seems unlikely. Several lines of evidence point to a continuous process of pockmark
formation followed by inactivity, with some pockmarks recently active whereas others have been inactive for a considerable
time. Some pockmarks are characterised by coarse sediment in their centres. The density, variety and easy access make this
pockmark field an ideal model area for pockmark research.

根据现场大风浪条件下的实测资料,粉质土海岸水体中的含沙量沿垂向具有上部均匀、近底突增的分布特点,即呈L型分布特征。利用黄河三角洲粉质土作为试验底床开展波浪水槽试验研究,揭示了底床粉质土在波浪作用下产生液化情况的水体含沙量沿垂向存在L型分布特征。根据试验现象以及悬沙粒度变化,分析认为底部高含沙层的形成主要受粉质土液化后细颗粒析出的影响,上部水体中悬沙由湍流脉动维持。对粉质土海岸大风天气期间水体含沙量剧烈增加采用波致粉质土液化的观点进行了初步解释。 相似文献

During a recent oceanographical-geophysical survey carried out in the southeastern part of the Gulf of Patras in Western Greece for the construction of an outfall, an active pockmark field was found. The pockmark field was formed in soft layered Holocene silts. The pockmarks are associated with acoustic anomalies attributed to gas-charged sediments. The pockmarks vary in size and shape from 25 to 250 m in diameter and from 0.5 to 15 m in depth and are among the largest and deepest observed in the world.
On July 14th, 1993, during the survey, a major earthquake of magnitude 5.4 on the Richter scale occurred in the area. During the 24 hour period prior to the earthquake the bottom water temperature anomalously increased on three occasions, whilst for a few days after the earthquake it was noted that the majority of the pockmarks were venting gas bublles.
It is considered that the three abrupt sea-water temperature increases were probably the result of upward migrating high-temperature gas bubbles in the water column. It is further suggested that the earthquake was the triggering mechanism and that the gas expulsion was caused by the reduction in the pore volume in the sediments resulting from changes in the stress regime prior to the earthquake. Therefore, it can be suggested that in seismic areas adjacent to pockmark fields, earthquake prediction may be achieved by monitoring the water temperature and/or the rate of gas venting in the pockmark field.
Our analysis indicates that the pockmark field in the Patras Gulf has formed slowly during the Holocene by continuous gas venting, which is periodically being interrupted by short-duration events of enhanced gas seepage triggered by earthquakes. 相似文献

Mechanisms and timescales responsible for pockmark formation and maintenance remain uncertain, especially in areas lacking
extensive thermogenic fluid deposits (e.g., previously glaciated estuaries). This study characterizes seafloor activity in
the Belfast Bay, Maine nearshore pockmark field using (1) three swath bathymetry datasets collected between 1999 and 2008,
complemented by analyses of shallow box-core samples for radionuclide activity and undrained shear strength, and (2) historical
bathymetric data (report and smooth sheets from 1872, 1947, 1948). In addition, because repeat swath bathymetry surveys are
an emerging data source, we present a selected literature review of recent studies using such datasets for seafloor change
analysis. This study is the first to apply the method to a pockmark field, and characterizes macro-scale (>5 m) evolution
of tens of square kilometers of highly irregular seafloor. Presence/absence analysis yielded no change in pockmark frequency
or distribution over a 9-year period (1999–2008). In that time pockmarks did not detectably enlarge, truncate, elongate, or
combine. Historical data indicate that pockmark chains already existed in the 19th century. Despite the lack of macroscopic
changes in the field, near-bed undrained shear-strength values of less than 7 kPa and scattered downcore 137Cs signatures indicate a highly disturbed setting. Integrating these findings with independent geophysical and geochemical
observations made in the pockmark field, it can be concluded that (1) large-scale sediment resuspension and dispersion related
to pockmark formation and failure do not occur frequently within this field, and (2) pockmarks can persevere in a dynamic
estuarine setting that exhibits minimal modern fluid venting. Although pockmarks are conventionally thought to be long-lived
features maintained by a combination of fluid venting and minimal sediment accumulation, this suggests that other mechanisms
may be equally active in maintaining such irregular seafloor morphology. One such mechanism could be upwelling within pockmarks
induced by near-bed currents. 相似文献

北黄海海底麻坑群形态的定量研究及控制因素 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
本文基于高分辨率多波束水深数据和反向散射强度数据，对北黄海海底麻坑群的形态参数进行定量研究，结合水深、地形坡度和后向散射强度的变化准确界定了麻坑的轮廓，识别出圆形、椭圆形、拉长型麻坑共282个，并在ArcGIS软件中对其形态参数进行了分析计算，麻坑的平均长轴1.36 km，短轴0.78 km，直径0.94 km，面积0.88 km2，平均周长3.82 km，长宽比1.83，深度0.3~2.5 m，平均面积密集度13%，麻坑的剖面形态有麻坑边缘凹陷、中部有明显凸起（W1型），麻坑边缘凹陷、中部略凸起（W2型），麻坑中部单纯凹陷（V型），分别集中分布在麻坑群的北部、南部、西部。麻坑的平面规模大、深度小的原因与地层中形成麻坑的游离气体浓度较小有关，也可能受到了地震、海啸等外力的诱发。麻坑的长轴优势走向为ENE-WSW、NNE-SSW，底流对其形状的塑造起了较大作用，部分麻坑成串排列，形成串珠状的麻坑链，其排列方式受到海底古河道、古潟湖等沉积地层结构的控制。海底麻坑群发育区反向散射强度为-60~-71 dB，麻坑内部较麻坑外部平均高5 dB，可能为麻坑内部气体泄漏引起海底沉积物被剥蚀后残留下的粗颗粒物质或海底生物活动留下的遗迹导致的。 相似文献

波浪会对海床产生反复的作用力，由此引起的土体颗粒间孔隙水压力变化是造成土体液化的主要原因。使用自行研发的孔压监测设备，对黄河口埕岛海域易液化区海底孔压进行了长时间、高精度的观测，并对孔隙水压力、波高以及潮位间的关系进行分析。监测结果显示，本次监测条件下波浪最大作用深度介于0.5～1.5 m之间，超过该作用深度后孔压无明显变化。土体内部孔隙水压力的变化主要由潮位和波高决定，潮位的作用可使孔压缓慢平滑的变化且对超孔压无影响；波高的作用可使孔压快速、剧烈地振荡并导致超孔压的出现。 相似文献

粉质土海岸微地貌形成及泥沙问题的工程地质分析 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
通过对渤海湾粉质土海岸中的黄河水下三角洲的塌陷凹坑地貌形成、埕岛海域海底电缆中断、黄骅港外航道泥沙骤淤、东营港航道开挖试验段淤积等问题进行原因分析,结合该类海岸粉质土在波浪作用下的动力特性,认为风暴期间在强烈的波浪循环荷载作用下,粉质土在趋于液状化过程中强度降低,被波浪剪切形成振荡滑动,导致运动泥沙的异常增量。因此,在研究粉质土海岸泥沙运动问题中,应注意考虑由于海底粉质土的工程地质特性而造成的泥沙侵蚀或淤积量的异常变化。 相似文献

海底麻坑是由地层中流体向海底快速喷发或缓慢渗漏所形成的一种凹陷地貌,对其形态及成因机理进行深入研究具有重要意义。本研究基于高分辨率多波束地形、侧扫声纳、浅地层剖面及多道地震探测数据,对舟山群岛东部青浜岛海域发育的麻坑及其微地貌进行研究,分析表明:研究区发育有3个大型麻坑,并受到NE—SW向底流的改造而出现不同程度沿此方向的拉长,呈新月形或拉长形。麻坑侧壁呈现西陡东缓、西高东低的特征。3个大型麻坑内部发育有小的次级单元麻坑,或形成复合麻坑和链状麻坑等。麻坑之下地层出现声学浑浊等浅层气特征反射。在麻坑内外分别钻孔取样进行烃类气体的同位素分析,结果表明形成麻坑的流体为生物成因的甲烷气。研究区3个大型麻坑是在台风活动诱发下,由第四系地层中的甲烷气猛烈喷溢形成,而麻坑微地貌则是在随后发生的海底浅层气小规模缓慢逃逸形成的。 相似文献

黄河三角洲飞雁滩沉积物颗粒度分布和粒度参数特征及水动力解释 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2
黄河三角洲飞雁滩因入海河口改道而缺乏泥沙来源,导致海滩蚀退10余km。近30a来,蚀退后的浅滩在不同潮流和风浪的作用下,浅海滩沉积物颗粒在空间分布上出现明显的差异,表现为浅水区沉积物粗于深水区,来沙少的沉积区粗于来沙多的沉积区。根据2004年实测沉积物颗粒度参数和实测水流及风浪资料分析,该海滩可以分为三个沉积区:I号沉积区,水深较浅,泥沙补给较少,主要受不同风浪的影响,沉积物颗粒组成较粗,以细砂和粉砂为主,分选良好,目前抗冲能力较强;II号沉积区,水深较浅,水流较弱,常受来自高中低潮滩下泄水流携带的细颗粒泥沙影响,沉积物组成粗细混合,以粉砂质粘土为主,分选较差;III号沉积区,水深大,在潮流和风浪作用下,常有来自沿岸尤其I号沉积区的细颗粒泥沙影响,沉积物组成粗细混合,以粘土质粉砂为主,分选较差。黄河三角洲飞雁滩桩106海滩沉积物空间分布较好地反映了泥沙来源和沉积动力条件,该成果可为海岸海滩防护工程规划设计提供科学依据。 相似文献
