潮汐汊道及其沙滩的安全风险和动力机制

为提高海水浴场的安全性,避免发生溺水事故,文章以潮汐汊道及其沙滩的动力地貌结构和发育演变为基础,研究青岛市灵山湾城市阳台海水浴场沙滩的安全风险和动力机制,并提出风险防范建议。研究结果表明:河口潮汐汊道落潮流三角洲的潮汐水道延伸至沙滩滩面,高潮时淹没,落急时水流集中,形成流向外海的高速水流,极易引发海水浴场安全事故;区域落潮流与汊道落潮流相叠加、落潮流三角洲阻挡沿岸输沙造成下游局部岸段侵蚀以及沿岸输沙变化导致水道迁移摆动等因素进一步加大潮汐汊道附近沙滩的安全风险;安全风险最大的地点位于沿岸输沙下游与区域落潮流流向一致的潮汐水道末端附近沙滩,且该位置不稳定,随波浪场发生年际和季节变化;在潮汐汊道沙滩岸段设置海水浴场前应研究其动力地貌和发育演变,划分危险区和安全区,浴场设置后定期监测并确定危险区的位置,并在沙滩安全维护和质量评价等方面将潮汐汊道作为重要判定指标。     

纽约长岛一个小型潮汐汊道的水力学与地貌动力之间的短期相互作…

为了研究潮汐通道水力学与地形变化的机制及汊道对邻近海滩的影响，我们详细观测了一个小型潮汐汊道水力学与地貌的演变过程。由于波浪输沙大于潮流冲刷，汊道的水文与地貌发生了剧烈的变化，最后在观测的第八天就座淤闭了。波浪输沙形成汊道内的浅滩，汊道口门断面面积，引起了摩擦效应加大，使汊道水流经历了由落潮为主向涨潮为主的转化过程。     

海南岛万泉河口博鳌潮汐汊道演变及沿岸输沙率的计算

通过收集不同时期的遥感资料,结合已往的研究,分析了海南岛万泉河口博鳌潮汐汊道演变的年际与季节性变化规律;根据实测波浪资料计算了年沿岸输沙率及沿岸输沙率的季节变化。结果表明,博鳌潮汐汊道的演变具有周期性的规律,年际特征为南、北侧沙嘴分别向口门进积、口门总体变窄;从10a以上的尺度来看,封堵口门的趋势不断被洪季时的洪水和风暴潮增水所打断。另外通过沙嘴体积变化反推了博鳌近岸的沿岸输沙率,其结果与CERC公式计算结果一致,表明此公式在博鳌岸段有较好的适用性。     

用一维水力学方程求取泻湖水位及潮汐汊道断面流速——以海南陵水新村港为例

本文通过一维水力学运动方程及连续性方程,得出一个反映泻湖水位变化的二阶非线性有阻尼的强迫振动方程,采用龙格-库特四步格式进行求解,并以海南陵水新村港为例,计算了泻湖水位及潮汐汊道的断面流速.研究结果表明:(1)一维水力学方程可容易地求得泻湖-潮汐汊道体系中泻湖内的水位及汊道的断面流速,计算简单快捷.(2)一维水力学方程可分析潮汐汊道体系中的一些基本现象.如潮汐汊道对潮波的"过滤器"特征;由于泻湖-潮汐汊道体系的阻尼系数较大所导致的潮波自外向泻湖传播时衰减剧烈;径流对泻湖水位及汊道流速产生有利于落潮优势的影响;风可使泻湖水位抬升或下降等.(3)无论是否考虑泻湖与潮汐汊道面积随水位的变化,一维水力学方程都具有相当大的缺陷.由于其不能反映泻湖内地形的空间变化,也不能解决漫滩与归槽等过程,在外海潮波无次生波的情况下,它本身不能产生次生潮波,因而不能正确地反映潮汐汊道体系的涨落潮历时与流速不对称,从而不能分析泥沙的净输运及潮汐汊道的稳定性问题.(4)新村港泻湖-潮汐汊道体系中潮汐汊道的断面面积大小对整个体系的稳定性及演变趋势起着控制作用.     

潮汐汊口水流结构和动力特性研究

潮汐汊口作为河网的重要单元,关系到水沙以及可溶污染物、营养物质的输运和分配,对河口三角洲的水文过程、地貌沉积和生态环境,都有至关重要的影响。本文选取国内最大的珠江河网的分汊顶点-马口、三水分汊,基于一个大潮潮周期内走航ADCP测量,分析潮汐汊口各个支汊的流速过程及三维流速的时空分布特征;结合非稳态的调和分析算法和小波连续变换确定汊口处主要的潮汐组分,利用潮流分离技术,剥离出占主导作用的潮波信号并探讨潮波动力在潮汐汊口处的空间分布形态。研究发现,由于潮波在西江马口和北江三水汊道内传播的不对称性,两汊间的流速过程存在1.5 h左右的相位差。而连接西北江的岗根汊道,由于存在频繁的水体交换和弯道水流的特性,岗根断面的动力作用较为复杂,其最大垂向平均流速在涨落急时刻分别向左、右岸偏移,横向断面均出现了显著的顺时针二次流。     

黄渤海沿岸海湾─溺谷型潮汐汊道的地貌结构

本文以丁字湾等基岩海湾为例，论述了黄渤海沿岸海湾－溺谷型潮汐汉道的地貌结构，尤其着重于口门段深槽及涨、落潮三角洲。认为涨、落潮三角洲的发育状况与入湾河流的供沙量、纳潮水域容量、被浪作用、潮差以及口少卜海域的开阔程度有关；泻湖型潮汐汉道的落潮三角洲的典型模式可以应用于海湾－溺谷型潮汐汉道，但涨潮三角洲因受基岩海湾的复杂岸线的限制而不能充分发育。本文还讨论了海湾型潮汐汉道与半开敞海湾在动力和形态中的差异。     

基于EFDC模型研究文昌清澜潮汐汊道人类活动对水交换速率的影响

文中利用水龄浓度概念,结合计算水交换时间的水质模型公式,在EFDC(环境流体动力学模型)水动力基础上,分别计算了1965年和2006年清澜潮汐汊道的海湾水交换时间。研究结果表明,2006年的平均水交换时间为107d,1965年的平均水交换时间为114d,发生变化的主要原因是清澜港航道被浚深至7~8m,潮汐动力显著增强,纳潮量增加了4.3%所致。     

海南新村港潮汐汊道波流联合作用下的动力特征及其沉积动力学意义

基于ADCIRC与STWAVE模型,对海南新村港潮汐汊道的波浪-潮流联合作用进行了数值模拟,结果表明,S、SE向的平均浪与风暴浪在汊道近岸以产生西向沿岸流为主,SSW向平均浪与风暴浪作用时,在落潮主水道西侧形成东向沿岸流与西向沿岸流的交汇带。风暴浪作用下波生流与潮流的相互作用使瞬时流场与余流场均发生相应的变化。在平均浪作用时,汊道附近流速变化很小,而在风暴浪作用时流速增大,汊道内的涨、落潮流速不对称更为显著。在落潮主水道两侧由于波流联合作用产生涡漩,使动力减弱,从而造成泥沙落淤,而西向沿岸流的存在,使落潮主水道南侧边缘沙坝持续西移,泥沙沿落潮三角洲末端与冲流坝转运,导致新村港汊道口门西侧发育了规模较大的堆积地貌。     

Process-based modeling of morphodynamics of a tidal inlet system

The morphodynamic evolution of an idealized inlet system is investigated using a 2-D depthaveraged process-based model,incorporating the hydrodynamic equations,Englund-Hansen’s sediment transport formula and the mass conservation equation.The model has a fixed geometry,impermeable boundaries and uniform sediment grain size,and driven by shore-parallel tidal elevations.The results show that the model reproduces major elements of the inlet system,i.e.,flood and ebb tidal deltas,inlet channel.Equilibrium is reached after several years when the residual transport gradually decreases and eventually diminishes.At equilibrium,the flow field characteristics and morphological patterns agree with the schematized models proposed by O’Brien (1969) and Hayes (1980).The modeled minimum cross-sectional entrance area of the tidal inlet system is comparable with that calculated with the statistical P-A relationship for tidal inlets along the East China Sea coast.The morphological evolution of the inlet system is controlled by a negative feedback between hydrodynamics,sediment transport and bathymetric changes.The evolution rates decrease exponentially with time,i.e.,the system develops rapidly at an early stage while it slows down at later stages.Temporal changes in hydrodynamics occur in the system;for example,the flood velocity decreases while its duration increases,which weakens the flood domination patterns.The formation of the multi-channel system in the tidal basin can be divided into two stages;at the first stage the flood delta is formed and the water depth is reduced,and at the second stage the flood is dissected by a number of tidal channels in which the water depth increases in response to tidal scour.     

Feedback between tidal hydrodynamics and morphological changes induced by natural process and human interventions in a wave-dominated tidal inlet: Xiaohai, Hainan, China

The feed back between morphological evolution and tidal hydrodynamics in a wave-dominated tidal inlet,Xiaohai,China is investigated through data analysis and numerical model experiments.His-torically,Xiaohai Inlet had two openings,located at the north and south of Neizhi Island(a rocky outcrop),respectively.The evolution of Xiaohai Inlet was dominated by the natural process before 1972.In addition to the natural process,human interventions,including the closure of the north opening,50% of fresh water reduction,and increase of land reclamation,have altered tidal hydrodynamics and morphological evolution since 1972.A series of numerical model simulations were conducted to investigate the influence of morphological changes on the hydrodynamics and the influence of human activities on the inlet evolution.The natural process has caused narrowing and shoaling of the inlet throat,development of theflood-tidal delta,and shoaling of the tidal channel in side the lagoon.Human intervention shave accelerated these changes.Consequently,the tidal propagation from the offshore into the lagoon has been impeded and the tidal energy has been dissipated substantially.Tidal current has changed from ebb-dominant to flood-dominant in most parts of the inlet system where as the inlet throat has remained as ebb-dominant,the tidal prism has decreased consistently,and sediment has continued to deposit in side the inlet.As a result,the changes of morphology,hydrodynamics,and sediment transport show a positive feedback.The human interventions have had both advantageous and adverse influences on the stability of the inlet.The closure of the North Opening has decreased the longshore sediment input to the inlet,and increased the tidal prism,ebb velocity,and sediment transport in the south opening,thus enhancing the inlet’sstability.However,reducing the river discharge and landfill of the tidal flats has resulted in a decrease of the tidal prism,the ebb velocity,and the ability to export sediment,thus having the tendency to deteriorate the inlet’sstability.As tability analysis based on a closure curve methodology has shown that Xiaohai Inlet is in a state of dynamic equilibrium at present.     

长江口潮沼植物对动力沉积过程的影响

为探讨潮沼植物对动力沉积过程的影响,在长江口南汇东滩沼泽和邻近的光滩上进行了近底层流速、波浪、悬沙浓度、沉积物粒径和滩面淤积速率等对比实验,并在九段沙潮沼中做了两种先锋植物黏附悬沙的实验.结果表明,沼泽和同高程的邻近光滩近底层平均流速的比值为0.16～0.84;两种环境平均波周期、平均波高和平均悬沙浓度的比值分别为1.4,0.43,和0.71.波浪传入沼泽后,一方面波高大大降低,另一方面变得规则有序.海三棱草和草两种先锋植物群落黏附的悬沙分别达到298和40g/m2.由于水动力降低和植物的捕沙功能,细颗粒泥沙易于在沼泽中沉积下来,导致沼泽环境沉积物明显较相邻光滩细;沼泽中沉积速率加快,侵蚀受到抑制.     

用活有孔虫分布指示三亚汊道外港潮流格局

由因子分析得知,海南岛三亚湾汊道外港海底分布有四个主因子活有孔虫群,它们分别代表海湾内水体、湖冲出半盐水水体、湾外内陆架水体及内陆架与海湾水相混的过渡水体.这些水体在潮汐作用下的运动、相互混合,可由各水体的有孔虫指示.由每个主因子因子得分最高的三个属种百分含量之和等值线图所指示的外港潮流循环格局,与海洋学研究所得的结果相当一致.利用有孔虫指示潮汐汊道潮流格局尚属首次尝试,这方法对海岸开发分析泥沙运动、污染物排放等有实践意义.     

瓯江口外潮汐通道区滩槽冲淤演变分析及其调整机制的探讨

基于瓯江口外潮汐通道区的历史水深地形资料,利用地理信息系统技术,建立不同年份的数字高程模型(DEM),利用DEM进行数字化冲淤定量计算,分析特征地貌冲淤演变过程,并结合水文泥沙条件,对其演变和调整机制进行了初步探讨。结果表明:(1)1933—2005年的72 a间,瓯江口外潮汐通道区底床总体表现为微量冲刷,平均冲刷厚度为27 cm,冲刷速率为0.375 cm/a。(2)特征地貌单元经历了较大幅度的冲淤演变和形态调整,深槽处于较稳定的冲刷拓展过程;温州浅滩持续淤积,近年来人类活动的影响加快其淤积;中沙浅滩和重山沙嘴受冲刷移动最终合二为一。(3)在自然的潮流动力作用下,浅滩与深槽之间进行泥沙交换运移,是研究区滩槽冲淤演变的主要调整机制。     

径流和风对涌潮影响的数值模拟

由于实际江道中地形和江道轮廓等复杂性,难以分析涌潮演变规律。以钱塘江河口为基础,建立了概化河口的水动力数学模型,将复杂问题简单化,通过数学模型计算分析了径流和风况对潮差、涨潮历时、涌潮高度和涌潮传播速度的影响。结果表明,不同河段存在涌潮高度最大值的相应临界流量,越往下游,临界径流量越大;涌潮高度随风向变化规律是"逆风"<"无风"<"顺风";顺风条件下,风速越大,涌潮高度越大。     

波状涌潮在变化地形上的水动力研究

本文采用非静压单相流模型（NHWAVE）研究了波状涌潮在变化地形上的传播演变特性。通过设置合理的计算工况,系统分析了涌潮高度、潮前水深和斜坡坡度对波状涌潮水动力特性的影响。计算结果表明,涌潮高度和潮前水深对波状涌潮在变化地形上的水动力特性影响显著,不同的地形坡度对波状涌潮水动力特性影响较小。变化地形的存在可导致涌潮高度显著增大,引起沿程最大水位的剧烈变化,并且使涌潮传播速度降低。随涌潮高度的逐渐增加,斜坡前后潮差持续增大,同时表层速度与水深平均速度均呈现增大趋势。当增加潮前水深时,斜坡前后潮差减小,表层速度与水深平均速度单调递减。本文研究成果对于正确认识波状涌潮在变化地形上的传播演变规律有一定的参考意义,为波状涌潮河段涉水建筑物的工程设计及安全评估提供了科学依据。     

Tracer studies on the updrift margin of a complex inlet system

Three sediment transport studies using tracers were performed at Ancão Inlet (southern Portugal). The objectives of the experiments were to understand the sediment transport pathways and to determine their magnitudes on the updrift margin of an inlet. In order to apply the traditionally used Space Integration Methodology to the tracer experiments, adaptations were required. The study area was divided into four morphologically defined sectors and this was found to be a key factor for the applicability of tracers in a complex area. The four sectors are as follows: sector A is the straight part of the updrift beach; sector B is the upper area of the swash platform; sector C is the lower area of the swash platform; and sector D represents the inner parts of the inlet margin. The integrated analysis of all collected data (forcing mechanisms, tracer distribution and topographic evolution) led to the determination of the sediment pathways. A semi-quantitative conceptual model was developed in order to explain the sediment transport pathways and magnitudes that a known mass of sediment would follow after arriving at the swash platform. It was found that the areas with the largest sediment accumulation were sectors B and C, while almost no sediment was retained in sector D, which experienced significant erosion. According to the model, 53% of the initial mass of sediments remain in the system after two tidal cycles. It is hypothesised that sediment losses are caused by sediment transport towards the ebb delta and by sediment bypassing occurring from the ebb delta to the downdrift beach through swash bar processes. The herein defined conceptual model represents a useful tool that could be applied to other tidal inlets under similar conditions, facilitating sediment budget studies around tidal inlets.
