西藏典型冰湖溃决型泥石流的初步研究   总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6  
西藏地区冰川面积约为35000km^2,是我国现代冰川分布最多的地区,也是现代冰湖分布最多的地区.在现代冰川前进或跃动、冰舌断裂、冰湖岸坡出现崩塌或滑坡、温度骤然增加导致冰川融化加速、湖口向源侵蚀加剧、坝体下部管涌引起塌陷等诸多可能因素的影响下易造成冰湖溃决,出现洪水、稀性泥石流、粘性泥石流等危害方式,造成的灾害远远大于由降水引发的泥石流灾害,常常形成危害严重的地质灾害链.  相似文献

冰下地形与冰川体积的估算对冰川水资源研究具有重要意义.以萨吾尔山木斯岛冰川为研究对象,利用Landsat影像数据、探地雷达(ground penetrating radar,简称GPR)冰川厚度数据以及差分GPS数据,分析模拟了萨吾尔山木斯岛冰川横纵剖面的厚度分布特征,采用多种插值方法比较分析,得到木斯岛冰川冰舌区的厚度分布图,初步估算了该冰川的冰储量.结合数字高程模型数据及冰川厚度分布图,绘制了木斯岛冰川冰舌区冰床地形图.研究表明,两个横剖面的冰川槽谷形态存在较大的差异.横剖面B1-B2有典型的“U”型地形发育,冰川厚度可达116.4 m;C1-C2横剖面底部地形比较平缓,冰川厚度分布较均匀,平均在70~90 m.纵测线A1-A2冰下地形成阶梯状分布,纵剖面冰体平均厚度约为80.89 m,最大冰体厚度为122.67 m.木斯岛冰川的冰床地形图与该冰川的冰厚度等值线图形成明显对比.在海拔3 240 m和3 280 m处存在明显的冰斗地形地貌.初步估算木斯岛冰川冰舌区的平均厚度和冰储量分别为60.5 m和0.195 km3.与传统计算冰储量的方法相比,利用GPR测量得到的冰川厚度数据来插值计算冰储量的方法,具有更高的准确性.   相似文献

藏东南嘎隆拉冰川表碛冻融过程与零点幕效应   总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0  
冰川表碛区冻融过程的观测分析有助于厘清各层之间能量和水分传输的关系,从而为构建相应的能量平衡模型以及冰川径流模型提供理论支持。基于2015年10月至2016年11月嘎隆拉冰川表碛区自动气象站气象资料,对表碛区冻融过程进行分析,结果表明:表碛中出现冻土中常见的秋季和春季零点幕效应,秋季零点幕持续时间32天,春季零点幕持续58天;春季零点幕期间,气温和地表温度均呈现清晨低,午后高的日变化特征,而表碛层内温度没有明显的日变化特征,其体积含水率呈“脉冲式”变化;春季零点幕效应结束,底层冻结层破坏后,冰川冰消融才开始;嘎隆拉冰川表碛对冰川冰消融的影响不仅是因为表碛较厚,在消融量上抑制了冰川冰的消融,而且更重要的是表碛产生零点幕效应,延迟了表碛下冰川冰开始消融的日期,在时间上抑制了冰川冰消融。  相似文献

In this work, ground penetrating radar (GPR) data, global position system (GPS) data, Landsat remote sensing images and digital elevation model (DEM) SRTM were used to study the Muz Taw glacier in the Sawir Mountains. By a variety of interpolation methods, spatial pattern of thickness of the Muz Taw glacier was obtained. The results show that there are obvious differences between the available GPR transverse profiles. The lower transverse profile has typical “U”-type topographic feature, the maximum glacier thickness is up to 116.4 m; glacier thickness distribution in the higher profile is relatively flat, with an average about 70–90 m. The longitudinal profile forms a ladder-like distribution, which in the middle of the ice bedrock topography has obvious depression. The average longitudinal ice thickness is about 80.89 m; the maximum ice thickness is up to 122.61 m. In addition, the preliminary estimation of the average thickness and total terminus ice volume were approximately 60.5 m and 0.195 km3, respectively.  相似文献

探地雷达因其快速、准确、无损、高分辨率等优势而被广泛应用于冰川学领域。以天山托木尔峰青冰滩72号冰川为例,着重介绍了探地雷达在冰川厚度及冰下地形探测中的应用。通过对雷达图像的处理和解译,获取了高精度的冰川厚度数据,恢复了冰下地形,计算了冰储量,并分析了冰川厚度变化对气候变化的响应。结果表明:冰舌厚度为0~148 m;冰储量为0.055 860 km3,折合成水为0.050 274 km3。近50年来,该冰川呈现强烈消融,与冰川区气温快速上升有直接关系,雷达探测为研究此响应机制提供了定量化的科学依据。  相似文献

西天山托木尔峰南麓大型山谷冰川冰舌区消融特征分析   总被引:4,自引:3,他引:1  
基于对托木尔峰南麓托木尔型山谷冰川的野外考察和典型冰川的定位观测,对冰面被表碛广泛覆盖的所谓“托木尔型”冰川冰舌区表碛与冰面消融的关系进行了研究. 结果表明:表碛对冰面消融、冰川水文过程、冰川变化等均具有重要影响,当表碛厚度超过3 cm时,表碛对冰面消融就产生明显抑制作用,且随着厚度增加,冰面消融显明减弱. 科其喀尔冰川表面的观测表明,由末端向上,表碛厚度逐渐减薄. 受表碛影响,科其喀尔冰川区最大的消融量出现在海拔3 800~3 900 m之间、表碛物厚度小于10 cm的区域内;冰川消融强度由此向上随着海拔的升高而下降,向下随表碛厚度的增大而减弱. 冰面湖的发育是表碛覆盖冰川的又一主要特征,湖水对冰面的融蚀和快速排泄成为冰面产汇流的主要过程. 科其喀尔冰川研究表明,两三个冰面湖排泄形成的融蚀冰量就相当于冰川末端退缩造成的冰量损失. 因此,冰面湖等热喀斯特地形的形成、扩张融蚀、融穿排泄、形成湖区低地,这一周而复始的过程不仅是其主要消融方式之一,而且也强烈的影响着冰川水文及冰川变化. 托木尔峰南麓地区大型冰川变化主要以厚度减薄为主,而不是像大多数冰川显著的变化主要表现在末端和面积减少方面.  相似文献

Ground-penetrating radar (GPR) is a useful tool for mapping the thickness, morphology and structure of alpine glaciers. Englacial information obtained during a field survey of the Koxkar Glacier in Tian Shan, China, in June 2008 was retrieved from GPR profile data. At least four specific types of structures can be identified from the GPR reflection image: (1) hyperbolae from point sources, (2) irregular linear distributed features, (3) a dense chaotic return zone above a clearly defined bed reflection and (4) linear reflection within the ice body. The interpretation of a typical GPR image was validated using waveform analysis and a finite-difference time-domain numerical model. Through a series of data analyses, these types of reflection characteristics were strongly related to englacial melting. Considering also the GPR result of the debris thickness distribution at the terminus, it is concluded that strong glacial ablation does not occur at the terminus but at a position higher than the terminus where there is a thin layer of debris and relatively high temperatures. Meanwhile, there are many lakes receiving mostly englacial discharge that greatly erode the ice body through melt-water discharge in some regions, and a thick layer of debris insulating the ice body at the terminus; these features may differentiate the retreat of the Koxkar Glacier from the general retreat of glaciers. In the future, with the ablation of glaciers, the central positions of intense ablation may be disconnected and there may be a dead zone at the terminus.  相似文献

天山南坡科其卡尔巴契冰川度日因子变化特征研究   总被引:14,自引:7,他引:7  
度日模型是估算冰川消融的一种简单而有效的方法.根据科其卡尔巴契冰川2003年的观测资料,分析了该冰川度日因子的空间变化规律及其影响因素.研究表明:各高度上的度日因子,介于2.0~9.7mm·℃-1·d-1之间变化,平均值为5.7mm·℃-1·d-1,与青藏高原各冰川及其它地区冰川相比较小;随着海拔的增高,度日因子随之递增;随平均气温的升高而随之递减.由于冰面状况复杂,度日因子变化幅度较大,裸冰区的度日因子明显大于表碛覆盖区.人为测量误差、反照率、地形等对度日因子的影响也不容忽视.  相似文献

表碛下冰面消融的模拟与估算   总被引:4,自引:3,他引:1  
根据热传导理论和能量平衡原理建立了一个简单的数学模型,对表碛下冰面的融化热进行了估算.模型将表碛分为三层:第一层冰碛以剧烈的温度变化和夜间负温梯度的存在为特征;第二层为中间过渡层,温差和温度变化都较小;第三层为靠近下伏冰体的薄层冰碛,以温度低和变化稳定为特征.模型仅以地表温度时间序列、表碛厚度和导热系数、土壤热容量等参数为计算输入,即可对表碛不同层位的土壤温度及其下部冰体融化所需热量进行模拟估算.在科其喀尔冰川表碛区选取了3个具有不同表碛厚度的试验点(Spot1,0.8m;Spot2,1.5m;Spot3,2.1m)进行了模型测试.模型试验表明,模型对于不同厚度表碛下冰面融化热的模拟是较好的,然而对于不同层位地温序列的模拟仍有一定的偏差,造成这些偏差的原因主要是来自于模型假设和土壤温度垂向上的时间相位差.模拟结果同时也显示了不同表碛厚度下冰面消融的差异,冰面消融热平均分别为:Spot1:26.87W·m-2,Spot2:9.81W·m-2,Spot3:6.92W·m-2.  相似文献

The landform evolution of the Klutlan moraines is described and explained primarily with respect to processes that cause voids in which debris is deposited. Morainal deposits of different ages provide examples of landforms at different stages of development, so that continuous ideal evolutionary sequences can be inferred. Specific features are classified as those on material of the same depositional age that develop mostly in a vertical direction with numerous topographic reversals, and those cross-cutting materials of different depositional age that develop primarily in a horizontal direction. The evolution of slopes is often terminated by their destruction as the underlying ice melts, but former slopes on morainal debris are traceable to ice-ridge slopes on the original glacier surface. The general process of evolution is one of downwasting by surficial icemelt, in which a grand topographic reversal takes place as the original ice mass with a gently convex surface melts to leave a basin floored by a concave mantle of morainal debris. The primary glacial process of melting differs from the primary karst process of solution, but many minor glacial processes and major glacial forms are similar to minor karst processes and major karst forms.  相似文献

A continuing prehistoric ice stream network between the Karakorum main crest and the Nanga Parbat massive has been evidenced, which, flowing down from the current Baltoro- and Chogolungma glaciers and filling the Shigar valley as well as the Skardu Basin, has flowed together with the Gilgit valley glacier to a joint Indus parent glacier through the Indus gorge. The ice stream network received an influx by a plateau glacier covering the Deosai plateau, which was connected through outlet glaciers to the ice filling of the Skardu Basin and the Astor glacier at the Nanga Parbat, as well as to the lower Indus glacier. The field observations introduced here in part confirm the results as to the Ice Age glacier surface area of Lydekker, Oestreich and Dainelli, but go beyond it. In additon, a reconstruction of the surface level of this ice stream network and its glacier thicknesses up to the highest regions of the present-day Karakorum valley glaciers has been carried out for the first time. In the area under investigation the Karakorum ice stream network showed three ice cupolas, culminating at an altitude of 6200–6400 m. Between the mountain groups towering 1000–2000 m higher up, they communicated with each other over the transfluence passes in a continuous glacier surface without breaks in slope. In the Braldu- and Basna valley ice thicknesses of 2400–2900 m have been reached. In the Skardu Basin, where the glacier thickness had decreased to c. 1500–1000 m, the ELA at an ice level of 3500-3200 m asl had fallen short to the extent that from here on down the Indus glacier a surface moraine cover has to be suggested. However, 80% of the surface of the ice stream network was devoid of debris and had an albedo of 75-90%. The lowest joint glacier terminus of the ice stream network was situated - as has already been published in 1988 – in the lower Indus valley at 850–800 m asl. The reconstructed maximum extension of the ice stream network has been classified as belonging to the LGM in the wider sense (60–18 Ka BP). Four Late Glacial glacier positions (I–IV), with a decreasing ice filling of the valleys, have been differentiated, which can be locally recognized through polish lines and lateral moraine ledges. The valley (trough-) flanks with their ground moraine covers, oversteepened by glacier abrasion, have been gravitationally destroyed by crumblings, slides and rock avalanches since the deglaciation, so that an interglacial fluvial-, i.e. V-shaped valley relief has been developed from the in part preserved glacial relief. The contrast of the current morphodynamics with regard to the preserved forms is seen as an indication of the prehistorically completely different - namely glacigenic – valley development and the obvious rapidity of this reshaping at still clearly preserved glacial forms provides evidence of their LGM-age. In an additional chapter the lowest ice margin positions, so far unpublished, are introduced, which have been reconstructed for the Hindukush, Central Himalaya and on the eastern margin of Tibet.  相似文献

Englacial debris structures, morphology and sediment distribution at the frontal part and at the proglacial area of the Scott Turnerbreen glacier have been studied through fieldwork and aerial photograph interpretation. The main emphasis has been on processes controlling the morphological development of the proglacial area. Three types of supraglacial ridges have been related to different types of englacial debris bands. We suggest that the sediments were transported in thrusts, along flow lines and in englacial meltwater channels prior to, and during a surge in, the 1930s, before the glacier turned cold. Melting-out of englacial debris and debris that flows down the glacier front has formed an isolating debris cover on the glacier surface, preventing further melting. As the glacier wasted, the stagnant, debris-covered front became separated from the glacier and formed icecored moraine ridges. Three moraine ridges were formed outside the present ice-front. The further glacier wastage formed a low-relief proglacial area with debris-flow deposits resting directly on glacier ice. Melting of this buried ice initiated a second phase of slides and debris flows with a flow direction independent of the present glacier surface. The rapid disintegration of the proglacial morphology is mainly caused by slides and stream erosion that uncover buried ice and often cause sediments to be transported into the main river and out of the proglacial area. Inactive stream channels are probably one of the morphological elements that have the best potential for preservation in a wasting ice-cored moraine complex and may indicate former ice-front positions.  相似文献

Controlled moraines are supraglacial debris concentrations that become hummocky moraine upon de-icing and possess clear linearity due to the inheritance of the former pattern of debris-rich folia in the parent ice. Linearity is most striking wherever glacier ice cores still exist but it increasingly deteriorates with progressive melt-out. As a result, moraine linearity has a low preservation potential in deglaciated terrains but hummocky moraine tracts previously interpreted as evidence of areal stagnation may instead record receding polythermal glacier margins in which debris-rich ice was concentrated in frozen toe zones. Recent applications of modern glaciological analogues to palaeoglaciological reconstructions have implied that: (a) controlled moraine development can be ascribed to a specific process (e.g. englacial thrusting or supercooling); and (b) controlled moraine preservation potential is good enough to imply the occurrence of the specific process in former glacier snouts (e.g. ancient polythermal or supercooled snouts). These assumptions are tested using case studies of controlled moraine construction in which a wide range of debris entrainment and debris-rich ice thickening mechanisms are seen to produce the same geomorphic features. Polythermal conditions are crucial to the concentration of supraglacial debris and controlled moraines in glacier snouts via processes that are most effective at the glacier–permafrost interface. End moraines lie on a process–form continuum constrained by basal thermal regime. The morphological expression of englacial structures in controlled moraine ridges is most striking while the moraines retain ice cores, but the final deposits/landforms tend to consist of discontinuous transverse ridges with intervening hummocks, preserving only a weak impression of the former englacial structure. These are arranged in arcuate zones of hummocky moraine up to 2 km wide containing ice-walled lake plains and lying down flow of streamlined landforms produced by warm-based ice. A variety of debris entrainment mechanisms can produce the same geomorphic signature. Spatial and temporal variability in process–form relationships will lead to the sequential development of different types of end moraines during the recession of a glacier or ice sheet margin.  相似文献

Despite a long history of glaciological research, the palaeo‐environmental significance of moraine systems in the Kebnekaise Mountains, Sweden, has remained uncertain. These landforms offer the potential to elucidate glacier response prior to the period of direct monitoring and provide an insight into the ice‐marginal processes operating at polythermal valley glaciers. This study set out to test existing interpretations of Scandinavian ice‐marginal moraines, which invoke ice stagnation, pushing, stacking/dumping and push‐deformation as important moraine forming processes. Moraines at Isfallsglaciären were investigated using ground‐penetrating radar to document the internal structural characteristics of the landform assemblage. Radar surveys revealed a range of substrate composition and reflectors, indicating a debris‐ice interface and bounding surfaces within the moraine. The moraine is demonstrated to contain both ice‐rich and debris‐rich zones, reflecting a complex depositional history and a polygenetic origin. As a consequence of glacier overriding, the morphology of these landforms provides a misleading indicator of glacial history. Traditional geochronological methods are unlikely to be effective on this type of landform as the fresh surface may post‐date the formation of the landform following reoccupation of the moraine rampart by the glacier. This research highlights that the interpretation of geochronological data sets from similar moraine systems should be undertaken with caution.  相似文献

The cataclysmic eruption of Mount St. Helens on May 18, 1980, resulted in a large, north-facing amphitheater, with a steep headwall rising 700 m above the crater floor. In this deeply shaded niche a glacier, here named the Amphitheater glacier, has formed. Tongues of ice-containing crevasses extend from the main ice mass around both the east and the west sides of the lava dome that occupies the center of the crater floor. Aerial photographs taken in September 1996 reveal a small glacier in the southwest portion of the amphitheater containing several crevasses and a bergschrund-like feature at its head. The extent of the glacier at this time is probably about 0.1 km2. By September 2001, the debris-laden glacier had grown to about 1 km2 in area, with a maximum thickness of about 200 m, and contained an estimated 120,000,000 m3 of ice and rock debris. Approximately one-third of the volume of the glacier is thought to be rock debris derived mainly from rock avalanches from the surrounding amphitheater walls. The newly formed Amphitheater glacier is not only the largest glacier on Mount St. Helens but its aerial extent exceeds that of all other remaining glaciers combined.  相似文献

Ice‐cored lateral and frontal moraine complexes, formed at the margin of the small, land‐based Rieperbreen glacier, central Svalbard, have been investigated through field observations and interpretations of aerial photographs (1936, 1961 and 1990). The main focus has been on the stratigraphical and dynamic development of these moraines as well as the disintegration processes. The glacier has been wasting down since the ‘Little Ice Age’ (LIA) maximum, and between 1936 and 1990 the glacier surface was lowered by 50–60 m and the front retreated by approximately 900 m. As the glacier wasted, three moraine ridges developed at the front, mainly as melting out of sediments from debris‐rich foliation and debris‐bands formed when the glacier was polythermal, probably during the LIA maximum. The disintegration of the moraines is dominated by wastage of buried ice, sediment gravity‐flows, meltwater activity and some frost weathering. A transverse glacier profile with a northward sloping surface has developed owing to the higher insolation along the south‐facing ice margin. This asymmetric geometry also strongly affects the supraglacial drainage pattern. Lateral moraines have formed along both sides of the glacier, although the insolation aspect of the glacier has resulted in the development of a moraine 60 m high along its northern margin.

基于2009年5月至2011年10月科其喀尔冰川的花杆观测资料,对其消融区的表面运动特征进行分析. 结果表明:冰川消融区的年水平运动速度最大值为86.69 m·a-1,年垂直运动速度最大值为15.34 m·a-1,均出现在冰川海拔4 000~4 200 m的消融区上部;在靠近冰川末端的冰舌下部,受冰量补给减弱、厚层表碛覆盖等影响,冰川运动缓慢,年水平运动速度小于5 m·a-1,而垂直运动速度值小于2 m·a-1. 大多数横剖面的水平运动速度具有从中部向边缘逐渐减小的特征,而有的剖面却出现局部速度增大的区域. 整体而言,冰川水平及垂直运动速度随海拔降低而减小,符合冰川运动的一般规律,但主要受地形作用的影响,垂直运动速度随海拔的变化会出现波动. 消融期月水平运动速度与同期气温和降水的变化具有一定的相关性,可能反映出气候快速变化对冰川运动的影响.  相似文献

Rock avalanches are common in the Mont Blanc massif, which is bordered by valleys with large resident and tourist populations and important highways. This paper combines historical data with detailed geomorphological mapping, stratigraphic observation, and absolute and relative dating, to interpret several deposits resulting from rock avalanching onto glaciers.Nineteen rock falls and rock avalanches are described, ranging in volume from 10,000 m3 to 10 × 106 m3. They occurred between 2500 BP and AD 2007 at six sites. The events at three sites (Miage and Drus Glaciers, and Tour des Grandes Jorasses) are characterised by short travel distances; those at Brenva, Triolet, and Frébouge Glaciers exhibit excessive travel distances.Interactions between rock avalanches and glaciers are of four types: (i) rock-avalanche triggering, where glacial and paraglacial controls include debuttressing of rockwalls due to glacier thinning and retreat, oversteepening of rock slopes by glacial erosion, and effects of glaciers on permafrost; (ii) rock-avalanche mobility, in which mobility and travel distance are modified by channelling of rock-avalanche debris by moraines and valleys, incorporation of ice and snow (often >50% for large events), and irregularities on the glacier surface; (iii) deposit sedimentology, where melting of incorporated ice transforms the final deposit by reducing its thickness typically to <5 m, and debris of variable thicknesses is juxtaposed in a hummocky deposit with chaotic piles of angular rock debris; and (iv) glacier dynamics where insulating debris deposited upon a glacier produces a debris-covered glacier of different dynamics, and high elevated scars can favour the formation of small glaciers.  相似文献
