The Bunger Hills in East Antarctica occupy a land area of approximately 400 km2. They have been exposed by Holocene retreat of the Antarctic ice sheet and its outlet glaciers. The accompanying sea level rise flooded the marine inlets that now separate the northern islands and peninsulas from the major part of the hills. During deglaciation the continental ice sheet margin retreated south‐eastwards with several temporary halts, during which ice‐dammed lakes were formed in some valleys. These lakes were maintained long enough to permit formation of beaches of sand and gravel, and for the erosion of shore platforms and low cliffs in bedrock. Around the western end of Fish Tail Bay impressive shoreline features 20 m above sea level define a former ice‐dammed lake that was 5.5 km long. A similar 7 km long former ice‐dammed lake was formed at Lake Dolgoe. The more extensive and deeper glacial lake is revealed by well‐developed and preserved shoreline features cut at 29 m which is 16 m above present lake level. In addition, several small ice‐dammed lakes existed temporarily near Lake Shchel and in the valley to the west. Lake Fish Tail existed more than 6,900 14C years ago and Lake Shchel probably more than 6,680 14C years ago. It is inferred that the shore platforms and beaches were formed by lake ice and wave action over considerable periods when the lakes were impounded by steep cold ice margins. There appears to have been a balance between meltwater input and evaporative loss from the lakes in the cold dry continental climate. There is no evidence for rapid lake level fluctuations, and there was very little input of clastic sediment. This resulted in poor development of deltaic and rhythmically laminated lake floor deposits. It is suggested that such deposits are more characteristic of ice‐dammed lakes formed in association with wet‐based temperate ice than those associated with dry‐based polar ice.  相似文献

风力搬运过程中存在的物质分选极可能导致沉积区与物源区沉积物性质出现差异,对于研究物源示踪具有重要的意义。选取阿拉善地区古水下沉积物和风沙沉积物,进行磁学参数测定,调查分选作用对沉积物性质的影响,并探讨对中国黄土高原黄土物源研究的启示。结果表明:古水下沉积物与风沙沉积物的细砂组分磁学性质基本一致,但粉砂组分则存在明显差别,古水下沉积物的磁性矿物浓度显著低于风沙沉积物,风力分选作用可能是风沙沉积物粉砂组分磁性强的主要原因;古水下沉积物中高矫顽力矿物浓度较低,受沉积后改造作用微弱,指示古水下沉积物可用于黄土物源示踪研究。阿拉善地区沉积物和黄土高原黄土的磁学性质对比表明:风沙沉积物与黄土高原黄土磁学性质存在明显差别,但古水下沉积物与黄土高原黄土磁学性质却十分相似。这一地质证据支持阿拉善地区是黄土高原黄土沉积物的重要物源区,同时暗示古水下沉积物在黄土物源示踪方面的巨大潜力。  相似文献

腾格里沙漠东南部野外风沙流观测   总被引:9,自引:5,他引:4  
张正偲  董治宝 《中国沙漠》2013,33(4):973-980
风沙流是一种沙粒的群体运动,是风沙物理研究的重要内容之一。开展风沙流研究,能够为风沙运动理论与工程实践提供理论支持。由于自然界风的阵性、地表湿度、下垫面属性和风程长度等影响因子的时空变化对风沙流运动的影响,以及长期野外观测的限制,对风沙流的研究目前还不是很完善。本文依据中国科学院风沙科学观测场2005-2009年的长期观测资料,采用赤池信息量准则(Akaike information criterion),对5种风沙流通量研究常用的拟合模型进行对比分析。结果表明,指数函数模型(q(z)=ae-z/b)是平坦沙地上风沙流的最佳表示方式,该模型拟合系数a值在0~600之间,但主要分布在0~100之间,占64.40%,其次为100~150之间,占18.24%;系数b值在0~0.06之间,主要分布在0.015~0.040之间,占91.21%,其中0.025~0.030占26.37%,其次为0.030~0.035,占24.40%。风沙流中的沙粒平均跃移高度与拟合系数b相同。风沙流在运动过程中,主要在高度20 cm以下传输。风沙流对地表的风蚀和堆积机率几乎是相等的。  相似文献

青海湖湖东风成剖面化学元素特征及其环境指示意义   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
通过对青海湖湖东沙地风成沉积剖面化学元素特征的分析,结合光释光测年结果,并和已有研究进行对比,探讨了青海湖区12.5 ka BP以来的气候环境变化过程,将其划分为5个阶段:12.5 ka BP前气候寒冷干燥,青海湖应处于冰川消退的寒冷期,风沙活动强烈;12.5~11.9 ka BP气候向暖湿转变,其中12.2~11.9 ka BP发生一次寒冷事件,对应于新仙女木事件;11.9~8.0 ka BP气候冷暖波动频繁,期间出现了3次寒冷事件;8.0~2.6 ka BP是一个持续时间较长的温暖湿润期;2.6 ka BP至今,气候以干冷为主,与现代气候相近。  相似文献

在青藏高原中央、普若岗日冰原西侧流石坡地带山麓面上,分布有约100 km2的由戈壁与沙丘组成的地貌,这是世界罕见的、也是我国发现的首例中纬度、高海拔地区冰前沙漠沉积。野外地貌、地层测量和室内样品的粒度、矿物、14C测年分析等结果表明,其形成时代约为16 ka BP以来;沉积特征在沙丘沉积序列中表现为风成砂夹零星腐殖质层,在戈壁中表现为砾石表面具次生方解石或碳酸钙沉淀层;演化模式为冷直线式;形成条件为以下伏冰碛物为主要砂源,以行星西风环流和高原冬季风引起的地面西风为主要动力,以持续的寒冷半干旱为气候背景;成因主要与冰原西缘冰川作用形成丰富的冰碛物砂源有关;因此,这类沙漠与一般冰缘沙漠以河湖相砂为源具有显著区别,可称为"冰川型沙漠"。由于其形成兼与冰原、气候和环流的变化密切相关,所以它是高原腹地全新世气候环境变化的重要记录。  相似文献

青海湖湖东沙地典型剖面的AMS14C测年数据表明该剖面记录了当地约10 ka BP的风沙活动及环境变化。对沉积物的粒度组成特征、粒度参数、粒度环境敏感指标等分析,并结合沉积物磁化率和青海湖盆地相关研究中风成砂、黄土和弱发育古土壤、古土壤的OSL、AMS14C年代数据等,进行全新世以来的风沙活动及气候环境变化讨论。结果表明:(1)粗颗粒敏感组分(138~156μm)可以用来指示风沙活动的强弱,细颗粒敏感组分(2~5 μm)可以用来指示成壤作用。(2)10~9ka青海湖盆地气候状况较全新世之前略有好转,暖湿程度增加,部分区域开始发育古土壤,但总体上古土壤、弱发育古土壤、黄土、风成砂共存;9~4.2 ka青海湖盆地水热组合条件较好,风沙活动弱,大部分沙丘固定成壤,但9~8 ka和4.2 ka左右风沙活动较为频繁的特征可能指示了8.2 ka和4ka冷事件;4.2 ka之后特别是2 ka之后风沙活动显著增强,气候朝干冷化发展。  相似文献

青海湖西岸风成沙丘特征及成因   总被引:15,自引:6,他引:9  
沙漠化是青海湖周围生态环境恶化中一个非常突出的问题,尤其湖西岸沙丘是近十多年来才形成的风沙堆积,并逐年扩大,已成为青海湖区第二大风沙堆积区。通过对青海湖西岸沙丘的分布、形态、物源及粒度特征的分析,对其形成进行了研究,并对布哈河三角洲的形成发育与沙漠化之间的关系进行了初步探讨。认为河流的自然摆动和截直造成了该三角洲东北缘的停止发育,加之气候的持续干旱和严重的鼠害,是导致研究区土地沙化、沙漠面积不断扩大的一个主要因素。  相似文献

The varved sediments of the dimictic Lake Sihailongwan (Long Gang mountain area, Jilin Province, Northeast China) represent a palaeoclimatic archive which documents the local precipitation frequency during the summer monsoon, and variations in the aeolian flux of dust with their remote sources in the arid and semi-arid regions of inner Asia. Based on a detailed discussion of sediment genesis in Lake SHL, dust flux rates and palaeohydrological conditions were reconstructed on a decadal scale over the past 220 years. The aeolian influx by dry and wet deposition was quantified and characterised in its chemical composition. Photosynthetic production in the lake is positively correlated with the inflow of nutrient-rich groundwater. The groundwater discharge largely reflects the strength of the summer monsoon. Net accumulation rates for biogenic silica were determined for annually laminated sediments from the centre of the U-shaped lake basin based on sediment data. In a Si-balance model of the modern lake, the depositional flux of biogenic silica could be independently quantified on the base of hydrochemical monitoring data. Comparison of the both estimates allowed to asses the focussing of the particle flux in the lake. Though water retention in Lake SHL is rather high (ca. 30 years), changes in the hydrological conditions are sensitively recorded in the sediments because (i) nutrient-rich groundwater discharges into the productive zone of the lake, (ii) a substantial proportion of the total dissolved Si-inventory of the mixed lake (ca. 30%) is annually consumed by diatom growth, and (3) sediment accumulation is substantially focussed towards the flat bottom of the lake basin. The bulk siliciclastic sediment fraction (ca. 75 wt.%) largely originates from influx of dust of remote provenance. In sediment thin-sections, the dry-deposited dust fraction is microscopically identifiable as seasonal silt layer. Aeolian input by wet-deposition shows a distinctly higher variability than the influx of dust by dry-deposition. As diatom production, wet-deposition of dust is positively correlated with the rainfall during the summer monsoon. The inferred positive correlation between rainfall and dust flux during the summer monsoon implies that dust deposition is determined by the out-wash efficiency of mineral particles for a permanent high atmospheric dust concentration over Northeast China in the last 220 years.  相似文献

Rapid urbanization around Palm Springs, California has encroached upon the sand habitats of the endangered Coachella Valley fringetoed lizard (Uma inornata). The Nature Conservancy and the Coachella Valley Preserve System are concerned about maintaining an adequate sediment supply to the dune environments that urban growth might interrupt. Determining the source of the existing aeolian sediments is a critical first step toward ensuring a perpetual sediment supply. Geochemical links between the aeolian sediment sources and the Coachella Valley Preserve dunes were discovered by mapping the aeolian sand distribution and analyzing trace elements using multivariate statistical techniques.  相似文献

海岸是陆、海、气相互作用的地带。海岸风沙沉积是这一特殊动力环境的产物,是研究海岸环境演变及海平面变化的良好信息载体。中国海岸主要存在3种风沙沉积,分别为“老红砂”、沙丘岩及海岸沙丘。本文通过比较已报道的风沙堆积的物质组成、地层变化等,进一步总结了海岸风沙沉积的特征;选择已开展绝对测年的沉积剖面,利用概率密度函数分析了风沙沉积年代的分布特征,考察了中国海岸风沙活动历史,结合其他气候记录,探讨了不同地质历史时期海岸风沙堆积的关键影响因素。结果表明:“老红砂”沉积主要记录了冰期-间冰期尺度的风沙活动,在120 ka BP前后、73—55 ka BP等时期,风沙活动主要与海平面下降时陆架提供的丰富沙源和强盛的冬季风有关;而在105 ka BP、80 ka BP前后,风沙活动与高海平面时期丰富的沙源或季风气候的季节性增强有关;55 ka BP以来风沙活动强度降低更多地反映了沉积记录保存环境的变化,末次冰期海岸风沙沉积大多分布在现代海面之下,并不代表实际的海岸风沙活动减弱。相比之下,海岸沙丘沉积所记录的风沙活动主要发生在近3 000 a,可能与中国海岸冬季风的增强有关。  相似文献

为探讨黄河源区玛多盆地风沙沉积物分异特征,采集玛多盆地不同沙漠化程度、不同地貌部位、不同动力条件的沉积物样品进行粒度分析。结果表明:(1)玛多盆地沉积物随沙漠化程度增加,平均粒径增大,粗颗粒组分增多,分选性变好,偏度向负偏靠拢,峰态逐渐转向平坦,频率分布曲线也由双峰态转变为单峰态。(2)流动沙丘以中沙和细沙组分为主,分选性好,偏度近对称,峰度为中等尖锐。各个沙丘不同地貌部位沉积物粒度参数分异受风向改变的影响,变化规律不明显。流动沙丘沉积物相较于流动沙地沉积物的粒径更粗,分选性更好,可能是沙丘形成过程中风对沉积物颗粒的再次分选所致。(3)河流阶地剖面沉积物的主要粒级为中沙和细沙,分选中等偏差,偏度为正偏,峰尖锐,河流阶地沉积物的粒度组成与周围风成作用形成的流动沙丘(地)的粒度组成高度相似,极有可能是当地风沙活动的主要物源。  相似文献

Sandy desert landscape is a geological product of arid climate and abundant sand materials supply in natural conditions, therefore the formation of sandy desert is an ideal studying object for understanding the interaction between various stratigraphic/epigenetic spheres of the earth system. However, until now, the knowledge about the provenance and formation of these deserts in Xinjiang, Central Asia is diverse and inconsistent, a systematic review is necessary. Ancient aeolian sand sediments in the internal areas of these deserts and their twin dust deposits in the Cenozoic strata surrounding the Xinjiang deserts are direct and indirect clues reflecting the provenance of sand materials and the formation and evolution of deserts. Based on the geochemical, mineralogical and isotopic evidences of desert sands and relevant deposits in the peripheral regions, this paper reviews the research progress on the development of the sandy deserts in Xinjiang, Northwest China. Many proofs proposed that desert sands in Xinjiang were mainly sourced from the ancient pluvial, alluvial and fluvial sediments and were eventually achieved because of the local sand supply. It pointed out that the settings of tectonic structure in Xinjiang had made sediments both in the Tarim Basin and the Junggar Basin being influenced greatly by regional hydrological system and aeolian processes originated from the planetary wind system of westerly, the East Asian winter monsoon and the topographical mountain-valley winds. However, the directions of transpor- tation paths are different between the hydrological dynamics and the aeolian dynamics, which are decided by the slantwise structures of the basins tectonics and the regional atmospheric circulation routes, respectively, and have determined anisotropies of the transport pathway of these sediments delivered by different agents. This results in a geological cycle of detrital sediment transportation in the two large sediment mixing, alternation and recycle basins and thus largely increases the degree of between younger and older sediment sources, as well as the complexity and diversity of sand provenances.  相似文献

Glaciomarine sedimentation in a modern fjord environment, Spitsbergen   总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6  
By means of high resolution acoustic profiling and correlation of echo character and sediment lithology, fjords in western and northern Spitsbergen are shown to be blanketed by a 5-20 m layer of acoustically transparent sediments consisting mainly of soft homogeneous mud with ice rafted clasts. Acoustically semi-transparent material is found on slopes and sills reflecting their coarser composition. The areal average depositional rate in the outer fjord is in the range of from 0.1 to 1.0 mm/year, increasing towards the glaciers. In Kongsfjorden, 50-100 mm/year of muddy sediments is deposited at a distance of 10 km from the calving Kongsvegen glacier. Close to the ice front (<0.5 km) coarser grained, interbedded (sand/mud) sediments are deposited. The main sediment sources are from settlement out of the turbid surface sediment plume, combined with various types of gravity flow (sediment creep, minor slides, and slumping). Material deposited from turbidity current is probably of minor importance. On shallow sills the sediments are remobilized by icebergs. The sediment adjacent to the ice front is reworked and compacted during surges, a common form of glacial advance for Spitsbergen glaciers. During the surge considerable amounts of coarse-grained sediment are deposited by meltwater in front of the ice margin.  相似文献

根据实测数据,对磁化率与粒度、矿物之间的关系进行了探讨。结果表明,沉积物粒度与磁化率的关系,与物源及沉积动力密切相关。因此,在一定条件下,可利用两者关系来反映物源或沉积动力。碎屑沉积物的磁化率主要取决于磁铁矿的含量,并由此建立了磁化率(S,10^-7m^3kg^-1)与磁铁矿的百分含量(Pm)之间的回归方程S=49.18Pm+49.5。由于磁铁矿为重矿物,在沉积物中常常与钛铁矿、磷钇矿、独居石、锆  相似文献
