泥石流源区崩滑土体粒度特征及其产沙特性

泥石流形成与崩滑土体的存在密切相关,大量崩滑土体堆积在泥石流源区,为泥石流形成提供了丰富的固体物质。通过对云南东川蒋家沟泥石流源区崩滑土体的粒度特征分析,探讨了源区崩滑土体粒度特征与泥石流颗粒组成的关系。结果表明,源区崩滑土体和泥石流机械组成相似,粒度分布主要为单峰分布,说明泥石流粒度组成继承了源区崩滑土体的性质。同时对源区崩滑土样进行室内小型水槽冲刷实验,研究其产沙特性,分析表明:一定流量的径流冲刷作用下,崩滑土体的产沙过程满足关系式y=a+bt-1+ct-2,土体的抗冲系数k与大于2 mm的砾石含量和小于0.005 mm的黏粒含量相关,呈现出分别随着二者含量的增加而先增大后减小的变化趋势。     

高速远程崩滑动力学的研究现状及发展趋势

高速远程崩滑动力学机理的研究,一直是国内外工程地质与山地灾害领域崩塌、滑坡灾害研究的前沿热点问题。对这一研究领域,最近几十年来所取得的研究成果、研究现状及发展趋势进行了述评。厘定了高速远程崩滑的定义;详细地阐述了国内外众多典型重大高速远程崩滑灾害事件的几何学、运动学特征;概述了迄今为止所提出的高速远程崩滑形成的各种动力学机理;分析与讨论了高速远程崩滑动力学机理研究的发展趋势与动向;提出了今后进一步研究的总体思路、目标与应重点解决的关键问题。     

崩滑土体坡面运动过程研究现状与展望

崩滑土体坡面运动包括刚性块体整体滑动、崩滑泥流、崩滑破碎3种形态;根据粗颗粒间介质差异,崩滑破碎运动可分为无粘碎屑崩滑运动、粘性碎屑崩滑运动;根据运动过程不同形态,将崩滑破碎运动分为崩滑破碎、粗颗粒与泥浆混合运动、泥石流3个阶段。概述崩滑土体坡面运动过程调查实验研究现状;分析块体滑动摩擦理论、流体理论、散粒体理论在崩滑土体坡面运动过程应用情况,指出块体滑动摩擦理论、流体理论在描述崩滑破碎运动过程的不足;分析崩滑破碎后,间隙介质对粗颗粒运动的影响,指出目前散粒体理论描述崩滑土体坡面运动过程的不足,提出通过设定颗粒间的细观力学参数来再现崩滑土体复杂破碎运动过程的思路和重点研究的内容,为下一步研究提供依据。     

陕西南宫山南坡火山岩崩塌景观地貌形成演化

南宫山国家地质公园景观地貌是研究崩塌地貌形态、成因和动力机制的典型野外实例。该地貌呈现出火山沉积砂砾岩的岩性特征及后期营力作用,属于典型基岩崩塌地貌。按照地貌各类要素的表现形态及分布特征,划分出崩塌母岩地貌、崩塌残存地貌、崩塌垮落地貌和崩塌堆积地貌四种类型,崩塌体典型运动方式为"解体→位移→崩落→堆积",其演化阶段可划分为解体、崩离、垮落、堆积及崩滑五个阶段。重力崩塌地貌易诱发地质灾害,应进行详细勘查,采取野外监测、设牌警示和工程治理等防治措施,保护人员及财产安全。     

三峡库区坡地地貌过程的速率

在重庆奉节至湖北巴东一带三峡库区,存在两类坡地,分别是深层风化坡地与崩积—残坡积坡地。这两类坡地上,堆积物的稳定性差,表现为剥蚀、堆积的速率大。堆积物的累积速率可粗略地依据热释光年龄来估计。据此我们推测深层风化坡地的浅层滑坡周期大约是1.5ka,对应的堆积速率大约是33cm/ka。崩积—残坡积坡地上主要的陡崖崩塌发生周期是40ka⁶0ka,坡地中部的累积速率大约是4cm/ka。在崩积—残坡积坡地上常见生长的树木因堆积物蠕滑而变形,树木变形程度反映了蠕滑速率,据此估算的蠕滑速率是非常可观的,这既是坡地中部的剥蚀速率,可能也在一定程度上反映了坡地下部堆积物的物质供应速率。这些认识可能对滑坡与水土流失的治理有参考价值。     

陕北洛川塬黄土崩滑及谷坡扩展模式

陕北洛川黄土塬是水土流失严重的地区。通过野外调查发现黄土崩滑作用是造成该区水土流失的主要之一，发育于黄土塬-沟谷过渡地带。该区黄土崩滑首次被划分为单面崩滑及栅格崩滑两种基本类型。黄土单面崩滑主要分布于冲沟、切沟地貌环境，而栅格崩滑主要分布于级别较高的沟道之中，活跃于区域Ⅲ、Ⅳ级沟道，显示出黄土崩滑与区域水文网之间的对应关系。根据地貌景观和沟谷几何特征第一次提出洛川黄土塬河道谷坡以陡倾加宽和鱼鳞状后退扩展为模式。黄土崩滑是蚕塬的重要方式，在水土保持过程中，就加强不同类型崩滑的针对性研究、预报和防护治理，促进水保效益的提高。     

基于丰宁满族自治县六道沟排土场滑坡灾害特征及治理方案研究

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.
