基于Sentinel-2影像的巴尔托洛冰川冰面湖研究

冰面湖是冰川的重要组成部分,是冰川消融的指示器,不仅对全球气候变化响应迅速,而且对了解和掌握区域水资源信息意义重大。本文基于Sentinel-2遥感数据,利用随机森林算法,对巴尔托洛冰川冰面湖进行识别提取,并基于提取结果分析研究区冰面湖的空间分布特征,以及冰面湖面积、数量与冰川高程的关系。本文冰面湖提取的准确率达96.07%,完整率达92.18%,错误率为11.59%;识别出巴尔托洛冰川冰面湖567个,面积为249.46～37 134 m²;冰面湖多分布在距冰川末端3～26 km处,其中海拔3800～4300 m之间冰面湖数量最多,面积普遍较大,平均面积为1922 m²;随着高程的升高,冰面湖的数量和面积逐渐减少,在高程5300 m以上冰面湖数量仅为15个,平均面积为356 m²;高程升高导致冰面温度降低,是冰面湖数量和面积骤减的主要原因。     

Surface velocity monitoring of Skamri Glacier from 2018 to 2021 based on Landsat-8 images北大核心CSCD

Skamri Glacier is the largest glacier in China, and it is a surge-type glacier. The study on the charac⁃ teristics of glacial movement is of great significance for early warning of glacial disasters caused by glacier surge. In this paper, 20 pairs of Landsat-8 images from 2018 to 2021 were selected to extract the surface veloci⁃ ty of Skamri Glacier using optical image feature tracking method, analyze the uncertainty of velocity, and ana⁃ lyze the temporal and spatial changes characteristics of velocity of the glacier. The results show that there are ob⁃ vious spatial differences in the surface velocity of Skamri Glacier. During the period from January 2018 to June 2019, the velocity of the south tributary of Skamri Glacier is much greater than that of its north tributary（west）, while during the period from June 2019 to November 2021, it presents completely opposite spatial characteris⁃ tics, which is mainly due to the sudden increase of the velocity of the north tributary（west）in June 2019. Ac⁃ cording to the results of velocity changes from 2018 to 2021, it is found that the north tributary（west）surges in June 2019 and is still in the surge period until November 2021. The north tributary（west）glacier terminus will advance about 320 m towards the main glacier from August 2020 to September 2021;The velocity of the south tributary has been very large during the study period, and the maximum velocity reaches 441 m·a-1;The veloci⁃ ty of the north tributary（east）of Skamri Glacier increased sharply in July 2021, and the tributary may surge;The velocity of the main glacier of Skamri Glacier increased significantly after the confluence of the south tribu⁃ tary and the surge of the two north tributaries. In addition, there are temporal and spatial differences in the eleva⁃ tion distribution of the maximum velocity of the main glacier and its tributaries in this area. © 2022 Science Press (China).
