内蒙古东部近54年气候变化对生态环境演变的影响   总被引：14，自引：2，他引：14  

白美兰  郝润全  邸瑞琦  高建国 《气象》2006,32(6):31-36

利用4个代表站1951—2004年温度和降水资料，通过气候统计诊断分析方法，从气候要素变化趋势、基本气候状态特征以及生态环境演化趋势等方面，研究气候变化对生态环境演变的影响。结果表明：（1）近54年来东部区温度呈显著的升高态势。降水量波动性较大，总体上呈缓慢的增加趋势，但趋势不明显，属于气候自然波动的范围，而1998年至本世纪降水量呈下降趋势，并存在11年和22年的周期性变化。（2）无论是温度还是降水，目前都处于高的气候基本态和高气候变率时期，致使极端气候事件呈增加趋势。气候的变干、变暖以及变率的增大，加剧了内蒙古东部地区干旱化的程度。由此引起一系列生态环境问题，如湿地萎缩、草场退化等。（3）从示范区卫星遥感资料获悉，固定沙地面积的增加，说明科尔沁沙地沙漠化整体出现生态良性好转，但各类沙地图斑数的增加，表明在目前的气候条件下，沙地破碎化程度加剧，沙漠化局部有所恶化。  相似文献   

玉龙雪山冰川崩塌成因分析   总被引：4，自引：0，他引：4  

张宁宁  何元庆  和献中  庞洪喜  赵井东 《山地学报》2007,25(4):412-418

玉龙雪山是亚欧大陆距赤道最近的海洋型冰川分布区。2004-03-12上午,玉龙雪山东坡干河坝山谷上方漾弓江5号冰川区发生一次剧烈的的崩塌,2005年又有小规模的崩塌发生。通过实地考察认为,这是冰岩体崩塌事件。通过对气象资料的分析发现,区域气候变暖对冰川和永冻带稳定性的干扰是崩塌发生的主要原因,特别因为2003年和2005年为两个极端干热的年份。通过与本区其他冰川的变化对比,说明这次冰川崩塌可能是本区一些小冰川对区域变暖响应的另一种方式。同时发现,这次崩塌在现场留下的堆积物,在合适的天气条件下极易形成泥石流。  相似文献

方爱民  刘小汉  黄费新 《极地研究》2007,19(1):61-68

地处东南极内陆的格罗夫山地区是研究南极冰川进退和气候演化的理想场所。我国第22次南极考察(2005/2006)进行了该地区冰盖进退和古气候演化专题研究。笔者在野外考察过程中,对格罗夫山地区新生代冰川活动记录(包括冰川侵蚀地貌及冰川堆积物)进行了详细的观测,获得了很多有关该地区冰盖进退及古气候演化方面的第一手材料,同时系统回收了对反映该地区古冰川活动具有重要意义的新生代沉积岩漂砾。本文简要报道本次野外考察在冰盖进退和古气候演化方面所取得的主要成果。  相似文献   

The influence of micro-climate, snow cover, and soil moisture on ecosystem functioning in high mountains     

J?rg L?FFLER 《地理学报》2007,17(1):3-19

The dynamics of water and energy fluxes in the high mountains of central Norway was studied along micro-spatial topographic gradients in different altitudes and regions of the Scandes. Landscape ecological processes like snow accumulation during winter, snow melting, evaporation, percolation, soil moisture variability and temperature variations were quantified. Combining spatio-temporal data on physical environment functioning and vegeta-tion patterns resulted in a process-oriented characterisation of high mountain ecosystems. Extensive data from long-term measurements were synthesised illustrating the influence of micro-climate, snow cover, and soil moisture on high mountain ecosystem functioning. The results reveal that the micro-climatic impact on the vegetation is predominantly determined by snow cover overlaying soil moisture gradients. Water only becomes superior where near-surface water saturation and flooding occur. A lack of soil moisture availability was not found during any time of the year even under driest site conditions. Contrasting literature, the Norwegian mountain vegetation was found to be interpreted by environmental variable con-stellations excluding drought stress.  相似文献   

Climatic trends over the Tibetan Plateau during 1971-2000     

WU Shaohong  YIN Yunhe  ZHENG Du  YANG Qinye 《地理学报》2007,17(2):141-151

Trends of annual and monthly temperature, precipitation, potential evapotranspi-ration and aridity index were analyzed to understand climate change during the period 1971–2000 over the Tibetan Plateau which is one of the most special regions sensitive to global climate change. FAO56–Penmen–Monteith model was modified to calculate potential evapotranspiration which integrated many climatic elements including maximum and mini-mum temperatures, solar radiation, relative humidity and wind speed. Results indicate gen-erally warming trends of the annual averaged and monthly temperatures, increasing trends of precipitation except in April and September, decreasing trends of annual and monthly poten-tial evapotranspiration, and increasing aridity index except in September. It is not the isolated climatic elements that are important to moisture conditions, but their integrated and simulta-neous effect. Moreover, potential evapotranspiration often changes the effect of precipitation on moisture conditions. The climate trends suggest an important warm and humid tendency averaged over the southern plateau in annual period and in August. Moisture conditions would probably get drier at large area in the headwater region of the three rivers in annual average and months from April to November, and the northeast of the plateau from July to September. Complicated climatic trends over the Tibetan Plateau reveal that climatic factors have nonlinear relationships, and resulte in much uncertainty together with the scarcity of observation data. The results would enhance our understanding of the potential impact of climate change on environment in the Tibetan Plateau. Further research of the sensitivity and attribution of climate change to moisture conditions on the plateau is necessary.  相似文献   

Climate change comparison between Arctic and other areas in the Northern Hemisphere since the last Interstade     

XU Juan  WANG Guo  ZHANG Baiping 《地理学报》2007,17(1):43-50

Based on temperature reconstruction and proxy data from 14 sites in the Northern Hemisphere, this paper focused on comparing the cycles of temperature variations between the Arctic and other areas, including Atlantic, Europe, China, Asia, Pacific, Indian Ocean, and America during the transition from the last Interstade to the Last Glacial Maximum, from the Last Glacial Maximum to megathermal period in Holocene and the transition of the Little Ice Age (LIA) by the methods of Singular Spectrum Analysis (SSA) and Maximum Entropy Spec-trum (MES). The results showed that environmental changes in the Arctic are most similar to that in the North American and better similar to Asia, Atlantic and Pacific, the least similar to Indian Ocean and Europe. The 1500-year oscillation of temperature existed both in Arctic and Europe.  相似文献   

8.2ka BP冷气候事件确实在中国发生过吗？          下载免费PDF全文

金章东 Jimin YU吴艳宏  王苏民 《地质论评》2007,53(5):616-623

综合迄今中国境内湖泊沉积、冰心、泥炭、石笋、古土壤和洪积物获得的全新世数据及序列表明,早全新世气候变化是不稳定的,至少存在一次明显的降温事件,且表现为区域差异,其根本原因是受不同气候系统、复杂地形（特别是高原）的制约。但是,将不同地区、存在于9.0～7.6ka BP期间、500a至200a不等的气候突变或波动和记录与环北大西洋的8.2ka BP气候突变事件相对应,并归因于Laurentide冰盖的崩塌冰融水注入北大西洋造成的降温显然是草率的。中国主要地处季风气候区,加上目前我们所得序列的不同年代、样品精度、不同材料以及缺乏对气候事件前后精确的年代数据的控制,对于中国是否存在相同的或相似的气候降温事件是值得商榷的。如果真的存在,其时间跨度、降温幅度以及诱发机制又是什么,均需进一步认真研究。  相似文献
