琵琶湖中浊度的季节变化

Seasonal variation of the turbidity (suspended substance) has been investigated in Lake Biwa. During the last five years, vertical and horizontal distributions of water temperature, turbidity, electric conductivity and chlorophyll-a have been obtained both in the south basin and the southern part of the north basin of Lake Biwa. The benthic nepheloid layer (BNL) developed in the seasons of thermal stratification, and is not detectable in the non-stratification period (winter). The BNL is mainly maintained by the organic matter such as phytoplankton under decomposition. However, the turbidity in the nepheloid layer was much affected by the turbid water from rivers after heavy rainfall. In this case, the major component of the suspended substance (SS) in the nepheloid layer was inorganic soil. The particulate P concentration, which is originated from phytoplankton, also increased after a rain fall. This suggests that phytoplankton in the surface layer sinks with clay and silt coming through rivers. From summer to the end of the stratification period, another kind of turbidity appeared in the bottom layer. This is caused by the chemical reaction of manganese under the anoxic condition. The resuspension of bottom sediment by strong currents also occurred, but it is not a major process for maintaining the BNL.     

Development of a real-time forecasting model for turbidity current arrival time to improve reservoir desilting operation

ABSTRACT

Among various strategies for sediment reduction, venting turbidity currents through dam outlets can be an efficient way to reduce suspended sediment deposition. The accuracy of turbidity current arrival time forecasts is crucial for the operation of reservoir desiltation. A turbidity current arrival time (TCAT) model is proposed. A multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA), a support vector machine (SVM) and a two-stage forecasting technique are integrated to obtain more effective long lead-time forecasts of inflow discharge and inflow sediment concentration. The multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA) is applied for determining the optimal inputs of the forecasting model, support vector machine (SVM). The two-stage forecasting technique is implemented by adding the forecasted values to candidate inputs for improving the long lead-time forecasting. Then, the turbidity current arrival time from the inflow boundary to the reservoir outlet is calculated. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the TCAT model, it is applied to Shihmen Reservoir in northern Taiwan. The results confirm that the TCAT model forecasts are in good agreement with the observed data. The proposed TCAT model can provide useful information for reservoir sedimentation management during desilting operations.     

鄂尔多斯盆地南部延长组浊积岩体系及油气勘探意义

鄂尔多斯盆地南部的浊积岩体系主要发育于三叠系延长组长7、长6油层组。按其沉积特征可分为坡移浊积扇和滑塌浊积扇,前者相带发育相对齐全,垂向上多期互相叠加,可划分为:斜坡—槽道—内扇相、辫状水道、辫状水道间、辫状水道前缘—中扇相、外扇相和盆地平原相,后者多呈透镜状夹于较深湖亚相的深灰色泥岩中,相带分异不明显,仅可分为中心相和边缘相。两类浊积扇主要分布在近源斜坡带及远源末梢斜坡带。滑塌浊积岩主要由阵发性的偶然因素诱发而成,规模相对较小,储集物性较差;而坡移浊积扇则与地形坡度的有利配置和较稳定的物源补给有关,其沉积厚度大,分布广,储集物性好,是深湖区岩性油藏勘探的主要目标。

鄂尔多斯盆地西峰油田三叠系延长组发育典型的浊流沉积体。本文通过对西峰油田延长统野外露头的观察和室内岩心的描述与分析,根据钻井、测井资料,识别出了层状浊积岩、浊流水道、辫状浊流水道。槽状充填浊积岩以及滑塌浊积岩等浊流微相。并基于浊流的两种形成机制(洪水 沉积物→浊流和滑塌沉积物 水→浊流)和沉积动力学原理在该区建立了陆相湖盆浊流沉积模式,即洪水型浊流成因模式和滑塌型浊流成因模式,在此基础上探讨了浊流沉积对构造环境的沉积响应,认为构造背景在宏观上控制了浊积砂体的时空展布,鄂尔多斯盆地该时期的前陆发展演化特征构筑了其浊流沉积地层层序的充填特色。     

椒江河口洪季最大浑浊带核部的悬沙分选机制

以实测悬沙粒径、流速、含沙量资料为基础,通过悬沙不同粒级组分、中值粒径以及粒度参数的统计,分析椒江河口最大浑浊带核部悬沙粒径分布变化特性。研究表明,悬沙粒径分选主要受物质来源、潮流动力作用下底部部分物质再悬浮和絮凝沉降3个因素的影响。其中第二个因素起主导作用,大潮期比小潮期显著,第三个因素的作用主要发生在涨落憩前后低流速期,并在表层较近底层的水体明显。     

沉积物对珊瑚礁及礁区生物的影响

海水中日益增多的悬浮物和泥沙沉降是导致珊瑚礁严重衰退的原因之一。沉积物覆盖在珊瑚礁生物表面,影响其呼吸作用,而海水浊度的增加会减少光合作用的可利用光。过多的沉积物改变了礁区的物理以及生物过程,从而对珊瑚礁生态系的结构和功能产生不利影响。为了有效评估珊瑚礁的变化趋势,如优势种丰度以及空间分布的变化等,应用标准的监测方法进行长期监测对于掌握这一复杂生态系统的变化是非常关键的。综述了沉积物对珊瑚生长率、生长形态、代谢和繁殖与补充以及礁区生物的影响,并指出未来的研究方向,以期为珊瑚礁的保护提供参考。     

夏初海坛岛邻近海域上升流分布特征与叶绿素a、浊度关系

2005年6月初在台湾海峡海坛岛邻近海域进行了3个断面的水体温度、盐度、浊度、荧光叶绿素a调查,通过上述要素分析,阐述了该海域上升流发生阶段的分布特征以及荧光叶绿素a、水体浊度的变化规律,指出荧光叶绿素a的分布特征除与营养盐的限制相关外,水体浊度对荧光叶绿素a的分布也起着控制作用,同时在上升流涌升最强烈的地区往往出现了浊度最大值,可能与底层物质的再悬浮相关。该研究对于深化认识区域海洋学过程以及影响具有积极意义。
