Springs of Great Britain     

J. B. W. Day 《Environmental Geology》1996,27(2):77-78

Predictably, in a country such as Britain, with its preponderance of consolidated, sedimentary, mainly fissure-flow aquifers, there is a very large number of springs, many of which are, or have been, used for public supply. Migratory springs are a feature of the British (Ur. Cretaceous) Chalk, the most important British aquifer. The Chalk's low specific yield and high capillary moisture retention together give rise to very considerable fluctuations (more than 33 m in some areas) of the unconfined water table. Along the gentle dip slopes of the Chalk (North and South Downs of southern and southeastern England) springs may migrate laterally for several miles, giving rise to seasonal streams locally known as bournes or lavants. However, springs such as at Duncton, West Sussex, at the base of the much steeper scarp slopes of the Chalk, form point sources, the flows from which tend to be relatively steady; such springs commonly supply and are the original reason for the existence of many of the small towns and villages which nestle along the bases of the chalk scarps of Sussex and Kent.Where the Chalk forms coastal cliffs, a number of springs break out at the base of the cliff between high and low tide levels; there are major chalk coastal springs, for instance, at St. Margaret's Bay (Kent) and at Arish Mells, east of Lulworth Cove, Dorset. Such springs are not used for direct supply (their salinity is usually too high) but are indicators of the presence of local reserves of groundwater for possible future development.  相似文献

EAR70、CLDAS和ERA Interim表层土壤温度在中国地区的评估     

单帅  师春香  沈润平  白磊 《气象科技》2021,49(6):830-837

本文利用2010—2015年2400多国家气象站逐小时观测数据对覆盖中国的EAR70、CLDAS和ERA Interim 3种表层土壤温度进行了评估和对比。结果表明：空间上CLDAS表层土壤温度精度最高（平均误差为-0.5 ℃，均方根误差为3.0 ℃，相关系数为0.96），受益于CLDAS高精度的陆面初始场，EAR70平均误差得到了改善；时间上ERA Interim再分析表层土壤温度在6:00和夏、秋季精度会明显下降，再分析表层土壤温度在数值较高时段表现出冷偏差，原因是模拟的土壤温度数值上升速度慢，对应的参数化方案有待改进。再分析表层土壤温度在东北地区冬季存在冷偏差，可能和积雪覆盖有关，陆面参数化方案也有待提高。在地形复杂的青藏高原地区，融合地面观测的CLDAS提高了大气驱动的质量进而改进了土壤的模拟。ERA Interim分辨率较粗不适合在青藏高原或者沿海地区使用，结合了CLDAS的EAR70在青藏高原精度提高。土壤表层温度的精度随着高精度的土壤状态初始场进入模式中时间延长会显著下降。因此，CLDAS的实时同化方式，能够有效提高在分析数据的精度。  相似文献   

施工顺序对软土地坪复合地基的影响探讨     

魏海涛  蔡智 《岩土工程技术》2021,(1)

场地回填土与搅拌桩施工顺序将直接影响软土地坪复合地基的处理效果,其中沉降控制是影响地坪安全运行的关键。以近海软土地区工业厂房水泥土搅拌桩复合地基工程为例,探讨了复合地基水泥土搅拌桩、回填土两种不同施工顺序的影响因素及相应处理效果;通过数值模拟试验,计算分析了不同填土厚度下两种工况的地基固结总沉降、施工沉降、工后沉降。结果表明,采用“先土后桩”的施工顺序的施工期沉降大于“先桩后土”,但工后沉降大大减小,提高了软土地坪地基处理效果,有利于处理后地坪的安全运行,验证了前述分析结论,为合理设计方案的确定提供了重要的参考依据。  相似文献

何世达  徐忠  李燕枫 《岩土工程技术》2021,(1)

在深厚软土地区的基坑,对基坑底软土进行搅拌加固形成强度较高的底板而保证坑底稳定,侧壁采用支护桩支护保证侧壁的稳定使其不倾倒,支护桩与加固底板两者共同作用形成的船状结构支护体系类似轮船的船侧壁及船底板,以保证基坑的稳定。结合具体的工程实例,介绍了船式支护的侧壁及底板的设计方法。工程案例成功实施,监测结果表明,船式支护既可避免支护桩嵌固深度过长,又利于软土的土方施工及工程桩的保护,是安全可靠的,对类似工程有一定的参考意义。  相似文献

饱和软土压缩曲线的“反常”现象     

冯铭璋  王兴涛 《上海国土资源》1990,(3):30-37

饱和软土压缩试验时,经常出现压缩曲线“反常”、压缩系数“倒大”的现象。它是土的原始结构发生破坏前后的不同压缩性的客观反映。饱和软土的结构力很微弱,唯质量好的原状土才能见到这种“反常”。应从成孔、取样、测试及资料整理等多个环节保证其工程意义。  相似文献   

西安南郊丰水年秋季土壤水分研究   总被引：4，自引：0，他引：4  

李艳花  赵景波 《中国沙漠》2006,26(1):113-116

 通过对西安南郊丰水年秋季土壤含水量的测定，研究了地下0~6 m之间土壤含水量的变化与土壤干层的恢复问题。研究结果表明，丰水年西安南郊人工林下2~3 m的土壤含水量在20％左右，远远高于正常年份的土壤含水量，而且大于表层和深层的土壤含水量。分析得出，土壤干层发育较弱的地区在降水丰富的年份可以得到一定程度的恢复；西安地区基本适合进行人工造林；通过人工措施，增强降水入渗和土壤含水量，对树木成活和长期的生长应当具有明显的作用。  相似文献   

土壤颜色——一个可靠的气候变化代用指标   总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3  

陈一萌  陈兴盛  宫辉力  魏明建  李小娟 《干旱区地理》2006,29(3):309-313

将研究剖面自上而下以2cm间隔采取的样品,烘干并研磨至小于45μm,此时,土壤的颜色将不再发生变化。将处理好的样品分别测土壤颜色指标亮度、红度和黄度,将测得的亮度、红度和黄度指标分MIS4、MIS3、MIS2和MIS14个阶段,通过与研究剖面的气候指标磁化率、粒度和CaCO_3在百年尺度、千年尺度上的对比分析,以及在万年尺度上与高纬格陵兰GRIP冰芯记录和反映全球冰量变化的SPECMAP曲线进行对比分析表明：土壤颜色指标作为气候变化的代用指标无论在百年尺度、千年尺度还是在万年尺度上均是可靠的,这种可靠性在末次冰期阶段表现得更为显著,这一结论是否适用于整个第四纪冰期间冰期旋回,尚需更多黄土剖面的研究事实来加以证明。  相似文献   

Exposure ages from relict lateral moraines overridden by the Fennoscandian ice sheet     

Derek Fabel  David Fink  Jon Harbor  Arjen P. Stroeven 《Quaternary Research》2006,65(1):136-146

Lateral moraines constructed along west to east sloping outlet glaciers from mountain centred, pre-last glacial maximum (LGM) ice fields of limited extent remain largely preserved in the northern Swedish landscape despite overriding by continental ice sheets, most recently during the last glacial. From field evidence, including geomorphological relationships and a detailed weathering profile including a buried soil, we have identified seven such lateral moraines that were overridden by the expansion and growth of the Fennoscandian ice sheet. Cosmogenic ¹⁰Be and ²⁶Al exposure ages of 19 boulders from the crests of these moraines, combined with the field evidence, are correlated to episodes of moraine stabilisation, Pleistocene surface weathering, and glacial overriding. The last deglaciation event dominates the exposure ages, with ¹⁰Be and ²⁶Al data derived from 15 moraine boulders indicating regional deglaciation 9600 ± 200 yr ago. This is the most robust numerical age for the final deglaciation of the Fennoscandian ice sheet. The older apparent exposure ages of the remaining boulders (14,600-26,400 yr) can be explained by cosmogenic nuclide inheritance from previous exposure of the moraine crests during the last glacial cycle. Their potential exposure history, based on local glacial chronologies, indicates that the current moraine morphologies formed at the latest during marine oxygen isotope stage 5. Although numerous deglaciation ages were obtained, this study demonstrates that numerical ages need to be treated with caution and assessed in light of the geomorphological evidence indicating moraines are not necessarily formed by the event that dominates the cosmogenic nuclide data.  相似文献
