摘要:

通过野外实地考察、实验模拟,在黄河三角洲发现了一种非常特殊的、冰-(水-)泥共同作用而形成的冰携泥现象。冬末春初,冰雪融化,位于冰层底部的细粒碎屑沉积物质(粉砂或粘土)常被冰向上携起。研究认为,冰携泥的发育过程可以分为三个阶段:沉积物的破碎、冰层底部融化-泥沙被冰垂向搬运及泥沙下落-冰成球粒等的形成。在冰携泥的整个过程中可产出冰劈裂缝、冰成球粒和冰成泥沙片等特殊的沉积现象(构造),它们是冰携泥现象留下的重要的地质记录,对于恢复这一特殊现象及其形成的环境条件具有重要的指示意义。另外,初步探讨了冰携泥现象形成的两种可能机制:毛细作用和冰融水对流作用,并认为在冰融水能及时渗漏或排出的开放系统中,只有毛细作用机制发生作用;在冰融水不能被渗漏或排出的密闭系统中,两种机制共同发生作用。

Abstract:

A special phenomenon, ice-carrying-particles vertical movement, resulted from interactions among ice, water and silt (mud) particles is found in the Yellow river delta through field observations and simulation experiments. In late winter and early spring, ice melts and the fine sediments (silt or mud particles) under the ice layer are carried upwards with the melting of ice. Studies show that the processes of ice-carrying-particles vertical movement may be divided into three stages, i.e. fragmentation of sediments, part melting of ice and vertical carrying of silt or mud particles, silt or mud particles falling and some ice induced sedimentary structures forming. These sedimentary structures, ice-split seams, ice-induced pellets and ice-induced silt or mud slices, are important records for existing of ice and reconstruction of sedimentary environment and climate. In addition, the dynamical mechanism of this special movement is discussed in this paper, and two dynamical mechanisms are worked out. The first one is capillary action, and the second thermal convection of ice-melt water. Capillary action is the only dynamics in the open system where the ice-melt water can be discharged or leaked out, and the two dynamical mechanisms contribute together to the special movement in the close system where the ice-melt water can not be discharged or leaked out.
