荒漠戈壁区地表疏松层中元素的分布规律

通过对荒漠戈壁区不同矿区地表疏松层中元素的分布规律研究发现:主要成矿元素和指示元素均在近地表疏松层中富集,同时,在粒级分布上又倾向于细粒级(-160目)富集,可见,在对荒漠戈壁区进行区域地球化学调查中,采集弱胶结层(10~40 cm)细粒级样品(-160目)为最佳采样介质,这样能有效地捕捉深部含矿信息。     

策勒绿洲与荒漠交错带达木沟剖面近4ka来干湿波动记录

位于塔克拉玛干沙漠南缘策勒绿洲与荒漠交错带的达木沟剖面高分辨率地记录了这一区域近４ｋａ来的环境演变历史。虽然,可以反映干湿波动的Ｒｂ／Ｓｒ比值曲线明显地反映了近４ｋａ来本地区持续干旱化的特征,且有后期加剧的趋势。但年代学及剖面沉积特征的研究还表明,在此期间仍有若干次相对湿润与干旱化加剧时期的波动。     

Sex expression and growth rates in natural populations of the desert soil crustal mossSyntrichia caninervis

The low elevation Mojave Desert cryptobiotic crust is dominated by the mossSyntrichia caninervis. In 16 populations of this moss, stem height and population were significantly associated with sex expression, with longer stems expressing sex more frequently and producing more perichaetia. The above-ground age of stems ranged up to 10 years, with a mean growth rate across populations of 0.36 mm year⁻¹. The overall stem sex ratio, as a proportion of the total number of stems, was 0.30♀: 0♂: 0.70 non-expressing. The probability of expressing sex in a given season was 0.09. The absence of sexual reproduction (no sporophytes) and likely absence of the male sex from the area indicate that the non-expressing plants are female individuals. The slow growth rates, low rates of sex expression, absence of male plants, and absence of sexual reproduction in this crustal species may help explain why re-establishment of mosses on desert soils can take decades.     

Processes of the deposition and vicissitude of Mu Us Desert, China since 150 ka B.P.

“Milanggouwan stratigraphical section” named lately takes down 27 cycles of alternately evolutionary histories of desert depositions in the Mu Us area with the fluviolacustrine facies and palaeosols since 150 ka B. P. Studies show that the sedimentary form was induced by the growth and decline and confrontation each other between the winter monsoon and the summer monsoon of East Asia in the past 150 ka.

腾格里沙漠地区水化学特征

水资源极为匮乏的腾格里沙漠区内所赋存的水主要有两种类型。一种是沙下潜水 ,主要是周边山区由高向低缓慢地向沙漠区运移所致 ,分布较为普遍 ;另一种是沙漠湖水 ,它是在沙漠区内之低洼地段 ,由于沙下潜水的长期溢出汇集于大小不等的长条状湖泊之中 ,以湖表水 (咸水和卤水 )的形式存在。沙下潜水矿化度在 0 .5～ 1 g/L之间 ,为本区的饮用水。湖表水咸苦 ,矿化度较高 ,就同一湖区而言 ,也有咸水和卤水之分 ,咸水矿化度为每升数十克 ,卤水则在 1 0 0～ 440 g/L之间 ,已达到了盐湖类沉积阶段     

绿洲与荒漠相互影响下大气边界层特征的模拟

用发展的二维中尺度土壤－植被－大气连续体数值模式模拟了绿洲与荒漠相互影响下的大气边界层特征。得到了绿洲和临近荒漠之间的边界层高度、风螺线、风速廓线、位温廓线和比湿廓线的差别,并给出了绿洲对其上游和下游荒漠大气的不同影响。基本再现了白天绿洲大气逆温和临近绿洲的荒漠大气逆湿。模拟实验研究不仅验证了外场观测结果,而且也使我们对复杂下垫面边界层结构有了一些新的认识。     

Water balance change for a re-vegetated xerophyte shrub area/Changement du bilan hydrique d’une zone replantée d’arbustes xérophiles

Abstract

Abstract Water balances for a re-vegetated xerophyte shrub (Caragana korshinskii) area were compared to that of a bare surface area by using auto-weighing type lysimeters during the 1990–1995 growing seasons at the southeast Tengger Desert, Shapotou, China. The six-year experiment displayed how major daily water balance components might vary for a bare and a re-vegetated sand dune area. Evapotranspiration from the C. korshinskii lysimeter represented a major part of the water balance. The average annual ET/P ratios varied between 69 and 142%. No seepage was observed for the vegetated lysimeter. For the bare lysimeter, on the other hand, 48 mm or 27% of observed rainfall per year occurred as seepage. These results suggest that re-vegetating large sandy areas with xerophytic shrubs could reduce soil water storage by transpiration. Also, the experimental results indicate that re-vegetating large sandy areas could significantly change groundwater recharge conditions. However, from a viewpoint of desert ecosystem reconstruction, it appears that natural rainfall can sustain xerophytic shrubs such as C. korshinskii which would reduce erosion loss of sand. However, re-vegetation has to be balanced with recharge/groundwater needs of local populations.     

不同石漠化等级的孢粉组合特征及其生态指示意义——以花江实验区为例

以贵州省关岭县南部北盘江试验示范为例,分析了不同等级石漠化土地上的表土孢粉组合特征,揭示了孢粉组合特征与石漠化等级的相互关系。结果显示:石漠化地区的孢粉组合具有鲜明的特征,乔木与灌木合占16.1%,草本与蕨类植物合占58.9%,这反映了石漠化地区以草蕨类植物为主的植被状况;孢粉组合与石漠化等级呈良好的相关性,草蕨类植物随石漠化等级的升高比重由41%增加到77.6%,种类由14种增加到27种,乔木花粉所占比重由6.9%降到2.6%,植物种类不变;孢粉组合反映出三出凤尾蕨等蕨类植物对岩溶石漠化生态环境的适应性和代表性。

乌兰陶勒盖水源地地下水开采的植被生态风险研究

乌兰陶勒盖水源地位于毛乌素沙漠腹地,地表水体不发育,植被生态相对脆弱。水源地大规模开采引发的地下水位下降将会对区内的植被生态造成一定的破坏。采用样方调查方法,对区内植被生态现状进行了调查,将区内植被分为荒漠、低湿和沙地三种植被类型;对植被覆盖度与地下水位的关系进行了探讨,得出植被生存的最佳水位是1.1～3.0m;运用GIS软件对区内植物现状与地下水位埋深进行了敏感性分区研究。试探性的建立开采条件下的植被生态风险指数,并根据指数值的大小进行风险性分区,结果表明,在选定的开采方案下,高风险区和中风险区的分布面积较小,而低风险区的面积最大,从而说明在乌兰陶勒盖水源地新增地下水开采量11.82万m3/d的情况下,不会对生态植被造成大的影响。
