天山东部喀尔里克山峰区的冰川作用

喀尔里克山和巴尔库山位于新疆哈密地区天山最东端。山势较为低缓,海拔一般在4000米左右。高山地带固态降水的长期积累,发育了现代冰川。雪冰融水孕育着河流下游片片绿洲。峰区现代冰川的分布呈现大集中、小分散的特征。悬冰川115条,占冰川总数的50％以上,广泛地悬挂在两山的南北坡。长度在3公里以上的较大冰川有24条,其中96％分布在喀尔里克山,而且集中于东径94°16′—34′之间的南坡。为了进一步揭示我国天山东部冰川作用的特征,我们选择喀尔里克峰区进行有关问题的讨论。     

1990-2015年喜马拉雅山冰川变化的遥感监测及动因分析

采用Landsat TM/ETM+/OLI影像数据,结合比值阈值法与目视解译提取冰川边界,分析了喜马拉雅山冰川在1990-2015年的进退变化。结果表明：近25 a来喜马拉雅山冰川整体呈退缩趋势,冰川面积由23 229.27 km2减少至20 676.17 km2,共减少2 553.10 km2,退缩率为10.99%,研究时段喜马拉雅山冰川加速退缩,尤其是近5 a来,加速退缩的趋势尤为显著。研究区冰川主要分布在海拔4 800~6 200 m范围内,且随着海拔升高冰川分布面积呈先增加后减小趋势,综合分析喜马拉雅山山体海拔特征可知,5 200~5 600 m很可能是研究区的“第二大降水带”。依据山岳冰川分布特征,我们将研究区冰川分为山谷冰川、冰斗冰川、冰斗-山谷冰川、悬冰川和平顶冰川,其中悬冰川的数量最多,山谷冰川的分布面积和平均规模最大。结合研究区周边气象格点数据,同时以12a为滞后期发现,近25a来喜马拉雅山冰川持续退缩很可能是气温升高和降水减少共同作用的结果,且未来十几年内冰川仍可能处于持续退缩的状态。     

关于南国冰臼群成因的商榷之二

南国冰臼群分布区大量冰川堆积、冰川条痕石及变形砾石的发现，再次有力地证明是“冰臼”不是“壶穴”的正确结论，由冰川漂砾经融冻作用形成的“石海”，与化学风化作用产生的花岗岩“石蛋”地貌特征，有天渊之别，不应混为一谈；边滩是由河流冲积物组成，不能与基岩冰床相提并论；圆滚水钻与急流旋涡及风蚀作用，形成的动力学性质、方向和方式完全不同，不该阴错阳差；节理、构造只影响冰臼的形态和发育程度，不是控制形成的动力学性质、方向和方式完全不同，不该阴错阳差；节理、构造只影响冰臼的形态和发育程度，不是控制冰臼的发育部位，不致于是非不辨，南国地区古冰川遗迹的大量发现，证明距今约二三百万年的第四纪早期确实曾发生过大规模的古冰川运动，为争论了半个多世纪的中国东部中低山区有无第四纪冰川问题，从此画上一个圆满的句号。     

白马雪山发育现代冰斗冰川的条件基础及其发育特征

位于横断山脉中部的白马雪山是著名的世界遗产地——三江并流中澜沧江与金沙江的分水岭。依据2011年5月对白马雪山冰川环境的考察,发现白马雪山4200m以上部分区域有终年积雪覆盖,根据Ohmura对70条中高纬现代冰川的相关研究所得出的山岳冰川雪线处降水量与气温的关系（此关系也被Hebenstreit用于计算台湾部分偏低纬度的山地现代雪线计算）并结合当地的气候数据,计算出白马雪山现代理论雪线位置大概为4800m,低于山体顶峰海拔高度。且位于4800m以上的部分地形适合冰川发育,依据这些可形成冰川的理论条件,可见白马雪山部分较高地区至今仍有小规模的现代冰川发育。白马雪山现代冰川变化以及终年积雪分布特征反映了一段时间内当地的气候环境变化。     

冰川及其径流对气候变化响应过程的模拟模型

用冰川动力模型对乌鲁木齐河源１号冰种东支进行模拟计算结果表明：１号冰川东支在维持目前气候变化水平下还将继续退缩到约１６００ｍ长度，若气温升高１℃，１号冰川将退缩为约只有３００ｍ长的悬冰川。     

冰川及其径流对气候变化响应过程的模拟模型——以乌鲁木齐河源1号冰川为例

用冰川动力模型对乌鲁木齐河源１号冰川东支进行模拟计算结果表明：１号冰川东支在维持目前的气候变化水平下还将继续退缩到约１６００ｍ长度；若气温升高１℃，１号冰川将退缩为约只有３００ｍ长的悬冰川。随着冰川退缩，冰川冷却作用减弱，冰川区的升温将高于非冰川区。１号冰川目前的冰川径流是处在一个高值期（相对于它的稳定状态），若气候继续变暖，冰川径流还将继续增大，达到一峰值后将迅速减小。     

天山冰川资源及其分布规律

本文从天山冰川数量，冰储量、类型以及分布特征等方面系统地分析了天山冰川的资源及其分布规律，为经济建设提供可靠的山地水资源论据。     

青藏高原可可西里地区现代冰川发育特征

经野外考察和室内分析计算，青藏可可西里地区发育现代冰川４３７条，覆盖面积达１５５２．３９ｋｍ＾２，冰储量为１６２．８３４９ｋｍ＾３，成为本区众多河湖泊水体的重要补给源泉。     

独龙江流域地貌

文章首先概述独龙江流域的地貌基本形态结构，分析现代地貌作用的外营力，讨论地质构造和地表物质对研究区地貌形成的作用和影响。作者着重根据现代冰川分布及其特征、古冰川遗迹、冰缘地貌类型和古冰缘地貌遗迹，研究独龙江流域全新世以来的构造抬升和气候演变。最后分析研究区坡地形成过程，河流地貌的发展与演变，阐述独龙江流域的地貌发育史。总之，文章坚持将今及古的观点，反对泛冰川和泛构造的解释     

点苍山大理冰期研究回顾、讨论与展望

大理冰期作为第四纪末次冰盛期,在了解历史环境变化方面具有很高的研究价值,多年来中国学者用各种传统研究方法对大理冰期的起源地——点苍山的末次冰期进行了研究,并获取了大量科学成果。回顾这一历史进程,重点对航空遥感、地质地貌结构、冰川地貌特征、区域尺度等方面的研究方法及结果进行了总结。并在此基础上讨论了一些存疑,分析了运用3S技术进行冰川研究和古冰川模型重建的基础问题及可行性。

Deserts and Aeolian Desertification in China: Book review and some thoughts

Desertification is a global phenomenon that affects about two billion people. It occurs in arid zones where the annual precipitation is below 400 mm, partic- ularly in the marginal areas of the world＇s largest deserts. It is a result of water and wind erosion, over- grazing, global warm-ing, improper soil cultivation, and increased pressure ot population growth, and it causes degradation of soil and natural and agricultural vegetation. The direct result is less food for people and livestock, which influences pop- ulation and animal husbandry fluctuations. Despite ef- forts to combat and reduce desertification, the affected areas are annually increasing.
