基于遥感和GIS的我国季风海洋型冰川区冰碛物覆盖型冰川边界的自动识别

冰碛物覆盖型冰川边界的自动识别是冰川遥感监测的难点,综合遥感图像和DEM等多种数据,提出了一种基于遥感和地理信息系统的改进的半自动集成分类方法.该方法选择NDSI、NDVI作为分类指标,通过栅格DEM反演地表现象,并利用处于热红外波段的TM6探测地物的热辐射差异,应用栅格图像和GIS进行邻接空间分析,将冰川及冰碛物覆盖型冰川进行区别和分类.选择我国典型的季风海洋型冰川区——贡嘎山地区大量冰碛物覆盖的贡巴冰川作为实例进行研究,取得了较好的分类结果.该方法比Frank Paul提出的方法更适合于我国海洋型冰川的遥感研究,同时也提出了存在的问题.     

玉龙雪山冰川稳定同位素分馏冬夏对比

利用玉龙雪山白水1号冰川区冬季和夏季表面积雪、雪坑、融水以及白水河河水中δ¹⁸O资料,对比分析了冬季和夏季我国典型季风温冰川系统内稳定同位素分馏行为的差异。分析结果表明,夏季冰川系统内各水体相变过程中稳定同位素分馏程度均比冬季强烈,指示出夏季季风海洋型冰川强烈消融的特点。另外,不论是冬季还是夏季,从表面积雪到融水再到由融水补给的河流,δ¹⁸O垂直变化梯度依次增大,反映了从固态降雪向冰川融水补给的河流河水转换过程中,稳定同位素分馏程度逐渐增强,体现了沉积后过程对海洋型冰川区同位素记录的影响具有空间差异性。

Comparisons of stable isotopic fractionation in winter and summer at Baishui Glacier No. 1, Mt. Yulong, China

Based on the data of δ18O in surface snow, snow pits, meltwater and the glacier-fed river water at Baishui Glacier No.1, Mt. Yulong, the isotopic fractionation behaviors in the typical monsoonal temperate glacier system in winter and summer were compared. The results indicate that the isotopic fractionation degree in summer is greater than that in winter, suggesting that the snow/ice melting is more intense in summer. Moreover, whenever it is in winter or summer, from surface snow to meltwater, and to glacier-fed river water, the gradient of δ18O with altitude gradually increases. This shows that the degree of isotopic fractionation gradually strengthens when surface snow is being converted into meltwater and finally into glacial river water, which suggests that the influence of post-depositional processes on δ18O gradient in the monsoonal temperate glacier region differs spatially.
