Permafrost‐thaw‐induced land‐cover change in the Canadian subarctic: implications for water resources     

W.L. Quinton  M. Hayashi  L.E. Chasmer 《水文研究》2011,25(1):152-158

Climate warming and human disturbance in north‐western Canada have been accompanied by degradation of permafrost, which introduces considerable uncertainty to the future availability of northern freshwater resources. This study demonstrates the rate and spatial pattern of permafrost loss in a region that typifies the southern boundary of permafrost. Remote‐sensing analysis of a 1·0 km² area indicates that permafrost occupied 0·70 km² in 1947 and decreased with time to 0·43 km² by 2008. Ground‐based measurements demonstrate the importance of horizontal heat flows in thawing discontinuous permafrost, and show that such thaw produces dramatic land‐cover changes that can alter basin runoff production in this region. A major challenge to northern water resources management in the twenty‐first century therefore lies in predicting stream flows dynamically in the context of widely occurring permafrost thaw. The need for appropriate water resource planning, mitigation, and adaptation strategies is explained. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献   

Cultural land use and vegetation dynamics in the uplands of northern Portugal from the Middle Ages to the Modern period     

Carla Sá Ferreira  Gill Plunkett  Luís Fontes 《第四纪科学杂志》2020,35(5):695-705

In Europe, mountain landscapes have evolved in a long-term relationship with human communities and present-day landscapes reflect that ancient interaction. The present study aims to reconstruct human activity in two mountain areas in northern Portugal using palynological analysis integrated with the available regional historical, archaeological and palaeoenvironmental archives. Pollen records from two sedimentary sequences span the Medieval and Modern periods and show that mixed agriculture and livestock grazing were consistently present in both regions throughout these times. Variations in cultural indicators show that the extent of farming fluctuated throughout time, with a general increase in cultivation during the Medieval period but with contractions likely coinciding with times of social disturbance. Historical sources suggest that sociopolitical factors and population pressure were fundamental in the utilisation of upland spaces. This study did not find any convincing evidence to suggest that fire was a fundamental factor in heathland spread. We conclude that long-term occupation of the uplands was sustained by low-intensity land use throughout the Medieval to post-Medieval periods, and that the present landscape has assumed a very different character following depopulation of the mountain areas and a shift towards commercial forestry.  相似文献   

A conceptual hydrogeological model of ophiolitic aquifers (serpentinised peridotite): The test example of Mt. Prinzera (Northern Italy)          下载免费PDF全文

Stefano Segadelli  Paolo Vescovi  Kei Ogata  Alessandro Chelli  Andrea Zanini  Tiziano Boschetti  Emma Petrella  Lorenzo Toscani  Alessandro Gargini  Fulvio Celico 《水文研究》2017,31(5):1058-1073

The main aim of this study is the experimental analysis of the hydrogeological behaviour of the Mt. Prinzera ultramafic massif in the northern Apennines, Italy. The analysed multidisciplinary database has been acquired through (a) geologic and structural survey; (b) geomorphologic survey; (c) hydrogeological monitoring; (d) physico‐chemical analyses; and (e) isotopic analyses. The ultramafic medium is made of several lithological units, tectonically overlapped. Between them, a low‐permeability, discontinuous unit has been identified. This unit behaves as an aquitard and causes a perched groundwater to temporary flow within the upper medium, close to the surface. This perched groundwater flows out along several structurally controlled depressions, and then several high‐altitude temporary springs can be observed during recharge, together with several perennial basal (i.e., low altitude) springs, caused by the compartmentalisation of the system because of high‐angle tectonic discontinuities.  相似文献   

南海北部东沙海域天然气水合物分解事件及其与海底滑塌的关系     

黄怡  王淑红  颜文  程俊 《热带海洋学报》2018,37(4):61-69

东沙海域是南海北部一个重要的天然气水合物成藏区, 其陆坡广泛发育滑塌构造。文章对采自东沙陆坡中部973-4柱样和下部平坦区973-5柱样开展了沉积学粒度、底栖有孔虫种属特征和稳定同位素等的综合分析。研究结果表明: 两个柱样中底栖有孔虫的δ¹³C在末次冰期均出现明显负偏现象, 同时δ¹⁸O增高, 指示该时期东沙海域存在持续的天然气水合物分解事件; 末次冰消期以来, δ¹³C负偏现象逐渐消失, δ¹⁸O值降低, 可能是由于海平面上升阻止了天然气水合物分解。973-4柱样仅在末次盛冰期对应层位440~600cm段存在明显的滑塌沉积, 且该层段对应的特征底栖有孔虫Uvigerina spp.和Bulimina spp.的数量突增, 推测该区的海底滑塌可能是由于末次盛冰期海平面大幅度下降引起天然气水合物大量分解诱发所致; 973-5柱样同样记录到了海底滑塌现象, 但其滑塌沉积晚于973-4柱样的滑塌时间, 且其规模较小。  相似文献   

内蒙古乌拉特中旗北七哥陶辉长岩SHRIMP锆石 U-Pb年龄、地球化学特征及其地质意义   总被引：12，自引：3，他引：9

内蒙古乌拉特中旗温更地区北七哥陶辉长岩岩体由橄榄辉长岩和角闪辉长岩组成,主要造岩矿物为橄榄石、辉石、斜长石及角闪石等.锆石SHRIMP U-Pb同位素定年结果表明,橄榄辉长岩形成于269±8Ma,为晚古生代华北板块北缘岩浆活动的产物.橄榄辉长岩和角闪辉长岩具有相似的稀土元素、微量元素以及同位素特征,即:轻稀土元素( LREE)富集的右倾平滑配分模式;大离子亲石元素(LILE)K、Sr、Ba明显富集,高场强元素(HFSE) Nb、Ta、U、Th相对亏损,但Zr-Hf不亏损;87Sr/86Sr(t)平均值分别为0.706776和0.706960,εNd(t)平均值分别为-8.8和-8.9,206pb/204Pb、207pb/204Pb、208Pb/204Pb比值的平均值分别为17.2019和17.2277、15.4252和15.4524、37.3082和37.4724,在s7 Sr/86Sr(t)-143Nd/144 Nd (t)图解上,北七哥陶辉长岩都落在了EMI型富集地幔附近.根据以上事实,结合区域资料表明,橄榄辉长岩和角闪辉长岩产于后碰撞的构造环境,并且来自相同的岩浆源区,主要继承了华北陆块内部EMI型富集地幔,可能受到了古亚洲洋俯冲消减过程中再循环下地壳组分对岩石圈地幔的改造.  相似文献

通过对浙北平原土壤调查与研究,发现一种新类型富硒土壤,其特征为环太湖周边断续出现。土壤硒全量为(0.084~1.296)×10^-6,平均值为0.399×10^-6,标准离差为0.037,变异系数为0.094;土壤有效硒与有机质关系密切,与土壤pH不相关;在土壤有机质丰富和氧化条件下,稻米、玉米、豆类和叶菜类等农产品富硒效果较好。进一步研究表明,该富硒土壤的形成与湖沼相沉积有关,据此提出湖沼相富硒土壤新类型。  相似文献

伸展盆地构造演化的数值模拟——以南海北部白云凹陷为例     

廖杰  周蒂  赵中贤  张云帆  徐子英 《地质通报》2011,30(1):71-81

介绍了瞬时均匀拉伸模型、挠曲悬臂梁模型和多幕伸展模型,特别强调各种模型的基本假设和适用条件,以及基于这些模型发展出的二维正反演模拟和一维应变速率模拟的方法。这些方法在计算岩石圈伸展系数和盆地张裂的过程中,具有一定的优越性。在盆地的数值模拟中,有时需要综合运用多种数值模型来突破单个模型假设条件的约束。为了研究南海北部白云凹陷的裂后沉降特点,分别应用二维正反演和一维应变速率正反演方法计算岩石圈的伸展系数,并计算理论热沉降,与实测裂后沉降进行对比。模拟结果表明,白云凹陷岩石圈的伸展系数大致呈钟形分布,在凹陷中心处最大,大约为3.5;凹陷的实测裂后沉降远大于理论值,即存在裂后异常沉降,裂后期的异常沉降总量在凹陷中心和南部在2km以上。  相似文献
