随着现代海洋观测技术的发展,通过海岸海洋地貌调查获得的数据急剧增长。运用地理信息系统(GIS)将不同学科、不同来源、不同格式的数据进行集成管理、分析和表达已成为当前海岸海洋地貌研究的重点。系统介绍了GIS技术在海岸海洋地貌研究中新的方法体系,包括数据获取、数据处理、数据分析和数据表达四个部分,重点研究了GIS空间技术、海底地形建模和用三维可视化技术解译海洋地学,探索陆海交互作用中隐含信息的方法,并将其应用到沿海城市规划、海港选址、大陆架岛礁地貌环境研究的具体实例中,研究范围从陆到海涵盖整个海陆交互作用带,为海岸海洋社会发展、经济建设及外交权益提供科学基础和决策支持。通过上述方法体系与应用研究说明,以GIS为核心建立的多源地理空间信息平台使传统海岸海洋地貌研究的范围、内容及方法都发生了重大变化,但多源数据信息的精确解译和成功应用必须同时具有空间信息学和地貌学专家知识。  相似文献   

Multiple longshore sand bars in the upper Chesapeake Bay     

Thomas J. Dolan  Robert G. Dean 《Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science》1985,21(5):727-743

In the upper Chesapeake Bay (Maryland, U.S.A.) field surveys were conducted at 18 multiple longshore sand bar sites. The multiple bar systems were found in water depths less than approximately 2 m (mean sea level), and exhibited mild bottom slopes of 0·0052 or less. The number of bars composing each system ranged from four to 17 and the spacing between the crests typically increased in the offshore direction, ranging from 12 to 70 m. Bar height also typically increased with distance offshore and ranged from 0·03 to 0·61 m. A grain size analysis of crest and trough sediment did not reveal any significant differences and the sediment was categorized as ‘fine sand’. A review of the literature data indicated that the Chesapeake Bay multiple bars possessed similar characteristics to those found in Gelding Bay (Baltic Sea); similarities in fetch, wave height and tidal range between the two bays may account for this finding. The surf-scaling parameter indicated that the multiple bar systems were extremely dissipative with regard to wave energy, and wave height appeared to be an important factor in controlling bar spacing and bar height. A multiple wave break point hypothesis was discussed as a possible mechanism for the formation of Chesapeake Bay multiple longshore bars, and limited observational evidence appeared to support such a mechanism.  相似文献   

The application of geographic information technology to coastal geomorphology     

GUOWei  LIShuheng  ZHUDakui 《海洋学报(英文版)》2009,28(5):49-57

With the development of modern oceanic observation technologies,coastal survey data have been experiencing a substantial growth.The integration management of the data from different disciplines,different sources and different formats has become a major research field in coastal geomorphology by using Geographic Information System (GIS).This paper puts forward a new methodology framework of GIS techniques in coastal ocean geomorphology,including data acquisition,process,analysis,and representation.It focuses on some major GIS techniques to study the land-ocean interaction mechanism,such as spatial analysis,submarine topography model and three-dimension (3D) visualization,and apply its result to coastal urban planning,harbor site selection and geomorphology environment about coral reef and islands on the continental shelf.The case studies cover the whole coastal ocean to serve the social community,economical development and diplomatic rights for decision-making all round in the coastal zone.The research shows clearly that the application of coastal multi-source geospatial platform has changed the traditional coastal geomorphology science dramatically from its research scope,fields and methods,however,as made clear in this paper,extracting accurate information from remote sensing data and GIS databases for coastal geomorphological applications is a nontrivial challenge that requires the combined knowledge and skills of information scientists and geomorphologists.  相似文献   

Evolution of the late Quaternary San Gregorio Magno tectono‐karstic basin (southern Italy) inferred from geomorphological,tephrostratigraphical and palaeoecological analyses: tectonic implications     

G. Aiello  A. Ascione  D. Barra  R. Munno  P. Petrosino  E. Russo Ermolli  F. Villani 《第四纪科学杂志》2007,22(3):233-245

The Pantano di San Gregorio Magno is a 4.7 km² large tectono‐karstic basin located in the axial belt of the Southern Apennines, an area affected by intense seismicity. The basin was formed in the Middle Pleistocene and is presently undissected. It is filled by lacustrine sediments (clays, silts and pyroclastic sands) passing laterally into alluvial fan deposits. Geomorphological investigations were integrated with tephrostratigraphical, palynological and palaeoecological analyses of a 61 m thick core (not reaching the bedrock). The multiproxy analysis of the S. Gregorio Magno record shows that, over the last 200k yr, the basin hosted a freshwater lake with an oscillating level. Age constraints provided by the tephrostratigraphic record allowed estimation of the sedimentation rate, which varied strongly through time. Evolution of the basin resulted from the complex combination of tectonic subsidence, karst processes and changing amounts of sedimentary inputs. The latter was influenced by allogenic contributions related both to primary and reworked volcanoclastic inputs and was climate‐driven. The overall evidence, which indicates that in the long‐term the accumulation rate substantially counterbalanced the accommodation space created by faulting, suggests that the basin evolution was also modulated by changing subsidence rates.

上海城市地貌形变与防汛墙地理工程透析   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2

从城市地貌学角度分析了上海城市地貌形变的阶段性、致灾性,探讨了防汛墙与地貌形变的相互关系、工程特点及存在问题,提出了阶段性地貌形变对市区河流沉积控制的概念模式。同时认为,上海高强度人类活动对自然地理系统的最大影响莫过于自然地貌面相对于周边地区的阶段性沉降变形(即地貌形变),并由此造成其他自然地理要素的相应变化;地貌形变发生后很难修复并具有明显的致灾性,使地势本来低平的上海受到来自洪水的更大威胁;作为地貌形变后的防汛墙治理工程其设计标高在近期是有效的,但从长期看存在局限性。上海城市地貌环境问题只有从宏观和长远的城市规划层面上去认识才能从根本上得以缓解。  相似文献

Structure,Timing, and Mechanism of the Pliocene and Late Miocene Uplift Process of the Ailao Shan-Diancang Shan,SE Tibet,China   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2

The uplift of the Ailao Shan-Diancang Shan(ASDS) along the Ailao Shan-Red River(ASRR) shear zone is an important geological event in the southeastern margin of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau tectonic domain in the Late Cenozoic,and it preserves important information on the structures,exhumational history and tectonic evolution of the ASRR shear zone.The uplift structural mode and uplift timing of the ASDS is currently an important scientific topic for understanding the ASDS formation and late stage movements and evolution of the ASRR shear zone.The formation of the ASDS has been widely considered to be the consequence of the strike-slip movements of the ASRR shear zone.However,the shaping of geomorphic units is generally direct results of the latest tectonic activities.In this study,we investigated the timing and uplift structural mechanism of the ASDS and provided the following lines of supportive evidence.Firstly,the primary tectonic foliation of the ASDS shows significant characteristic variations,with steeply dipping tectonic foliation developed on the east side of the ASDS and the relatively horizontal foliation on the west side.Secondly,from northeast to southwest direction,the deformation and metamorphism gradually weakened and this zone can be further divided into three different metamorphic degree belts.Thirdly,the contact relationship between the ASDS and the Chuxiong basin-Erhai lake is a normal fault contact which can be found on the east side of the ASDS.40Ar/39 Argeochronology suggests that the Diancang Shan had experienced a fast cooling event during 3–4 Ma.The apatite fission track testing method gives the age of 6.6–10.7 Ma in the Diancang Shan and 4.6–8.4 Ma in the Ailao Shan,respectively.Therefore the uplift of the ASDS can be explained by tilted block mode in which the east side was uplifted much higher than the west side,and it is not main reason of the shearing movements of the ASRR shear zone.The most recent uplift stages of the ASDS happened in the Pliocene(3–4 Ma) and Late Miocene(6–10 Ma).  相似文献   

地形地貌对地震波放大效应数值模拟研究   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2

采用FLAC3D 软件进行大量数值模拟,研究了地形地貌对地震波放大效应规律。结果表明:对于单面坡模型,斜坡较低时,坡体对天然地震波和简谐波的峰值加速度在竖直向和顺坡面向产生线性放大效应。斜坡较高时,若坡角低,两种波形的加速度等值线近似平行于坡面,天然地震波坡顶正下方极值性不明显,但随坡角增大而明显,坡面正下方可见若干条与坡面相平行具节律性的极小值条带,随坡角增大向一条极值带转化,简谐波在高低坡脚时坡顶面正下方区域内都出现等间距相间分布具节律性的极值条带,坡面正下方的极值带状性不如天然地震波明显,随坡角增大而消失; 若坡角高,两波形加速度放大系数顺坡面呈相间的极值圈分布。双面坡坡顶宽度越小,山脊越单薄,加速度放大效应越强烈,随坡顶宽度增大,坡肩加速度放大系数趋于稳定,双面坡对加速度放大效应强于单面坡。对加速度放大效应,多峰形双峰形单峰形,坡顶越不规则,加速度放大效应越强烈。V形河谷坡面上半部分加速度放大效应要强于U形河谷,U形河谷的谷底中部对地震波动力响应要强于V形谷。坡面局部不规则性只影响到坡面局部范围内的峰值加速度分布,坡高、坡角、坡顶几何特征为整个峰值加速度分布的控制因素。  相似文献   

大巴山国家地质公园构造地貌景观构造变形期次研究   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

通过野外路线考察,典型地区填图,地质、地形图判读发现,大巴山国家地质公园主要构造地貌景观横向分布呈现由NE至SW即从造山带向前陆盆地方向逐渐减弱特征;纵向上明显受早期构造格局和岩石类型约束,在区域上呈现NW—SE向延展的平行岭谷地貌,山峰和谷地的走向与地质构造线基本一致。通过对主要构造地貌景观构造应力和变形期次判别探讨,确定构造地貌景观形成的构造期次大致为三期,应力主要来自于NE—SW、SE—NW向,反映该区不仅受到NE—SW向的冲断挤压变形作用,还受到SE—NW向的右旋剪切挤压变形作用,推测是由多期受力叠加改造而成。通过ESR及14C定年确定距今12 Ma以来,该区在500 kaBP、278 kaBP、29 kaBP分别出现三次规模较大的快速抬升运动,提供了与其构造景观形成密切相关的新构造运动年代学证据。  相似文献
