乌兰布和沙漠沿黄段不同治理措施的风沙运移特征及其防护效果

为科学治理黄河乌兰布和沙漠沿岸风沙入黄问题,以该河段沿线流沙为对照,开展了麦草沙障、沙柳沙障、葵花杆沙障和梭梭林为代表的工程与植物固沙实验,对不同治理措施下的风速廓线、粗糙度、风沙流结构、防护效果及其相互关系进行了野外观测与室内分析。结果表明:1)各沙障和梭梭林内风速廓线发生改变,近地表风速显著降低,地表粗糙度和摩阻风速显著增加。2)流沙表面输沙量分布随高度增加呈对数递减,90%集中在0~10cm范围,98%分布在0~30m范围内。3)不同措施的输沙率随风速的增加呈增加趋势,但输沙率仅为流沙的1.07%~38.27%,可很好的控制近地表的流沙活动。4)各类固沙措施的实施效果排序葵花杆沙障>梭梭林>沙柳沙障>麦草沙障,控制流沙效果均达到75%以上,对固定流沙均能起到积极作用。综合考虑固沙效果、成本、运输以及使用寿命等,该地区选择葵花杆沙障和梭梭较为合适。该研究结果可为解决风沙入黄问题、完善黄河沿岸风沙防护体系提供参考。     

格状沙障内风速波动特征初步研究

通过对不同孔隙度格状沙障内风沙流中风速波动特征研究发现:风沙流中各高度层风速波动具有很好的相关性,其波动幅度随孔隙度的增加而减小;瞬时风速在时间序列上波动的均一性随不同高度间距离增加呈递减趋势;瞬时风速的波动性一方面受下垫面性质及外在环境条件的影响,另一方面与其所在高度层沙粒数量和运动状态有关.     

砂粒胶结体盖度与床面风沙活动关系的风洞模拟

塔克拉玛干沙漠腹地部分垄间地表发育了一种由众多砂粒胶结而成的大颗粒物质,称为砂粒胶结体(sand cemented bodies,缩写为SCD),其直径达到粗砂级、极粗砂级和砾石级.为研究其对地表风沙活动的影响,以野外采集SCD颗粒为实验材料,对不同SCD盖度下输沙通量垂直分布及输沙率变化进行了风洞实验.结果表明:风沙通量在SCD盖度沙床面表现为指数变化,主要集中在风沙活动底部.同时,随着SCD盖度的增加,总输沙量降低,部分沙量运移到较高层面,输沙率随SCD盖度变化可分成3个梯度区域,且曲线斜率反映不同风速等级下,SCD盖度对地表沙物质沉积过程的影响.当SCD盖度小于10％时,风沙活动强烈且风速在输沙过程中起主导作用.当SCD盖度在10％ ～ 40％时,随着SCD盖度增加输沙率降低,盖度对地表风沙活动的影响更为明显,特别是对近地表风沙活动的影响.当SCD盖度大于40％时,床面风沙活动趋于稳定,输沙率变化微弱,随SCD盖度变化输沙率保持不变,沙床面不易受侵蚀.因此,砂粒胶结体覆盖沙床面能够有效降低地表风蚀,且在一定盖度下还能捕获流沙颗粒.塔克拉玛干沙漠腹地丘间地天然发育的SCD对于地表风蚀过程具有重要的影响,可作为一种新型固沙材料进行开发.     

黑河中游荒漠-绿洲过渡带斑块状植被区积沙量的空间异质性分析

基于2012-2013年黑河中游荒漠-绿洲过渡带斑块状植被区的野外观测资料,并结合临泽内陆河流域综合野外气象观测站资料,利用空间异质性方法对积沙量进行分析.分析结果表明:1)2012年和2013年各月积沙量均存在着明显的空间异质性,2012年各月(除8月外)的积沙量变异主要为随机变异(83.00％-93.04％),起沙风速、起沙风频率的增加或RDP/DP的减小,有利于积沙量的增加,而降雨及降雨过程对积沙量具有消减作用;2012年8月2013年各月的积沙量变异为结构性变异(88.38％-94.85％),变异主要受到表层土壤干湿状况,植被分布和走向、微地形变化的影响.2)2012年和2013年积沙量分布各有特点,2012年积沙量空间分布呈片状分布,从西北向东南递减;而2013年各月积沙量呈带状分布,临近样地中央的两条样带积沙量较高,与植被和微地形走向较为一致.3)积沙量的变异类型与模型类型具有一致性,2012年各月(除8月外)变异类型为随机变异,变异模型为Linear型;2012年8月2013年各月变异类型为结构性变异,变异模型为Exponential型.这种一致性与积沙过程相关,尤其与风蚀积沙的积累效应(经数月的风沙物质积累,在春季得到放大)有关.     

乌兰布和沙漠风沙流结构的研究

库布齐沙漠机械防沙措施的防护效益

在库布齐沙漠风沙防治试验场,开展了机械防沙措施的防护效益观测。结果表明:防风效益、阻沙效益和表土含水率等随沙障材料、规模和结构发生变化。1 1 m×1 m植物纤维网沙障和高密度聚乙烯(HDPE)网沙障风速降低比(K值)分别为58.5%和55.7%,均高于同规格的沙柳沙障的18.3%,说明同一规格下植物纤维网防风效果要优于其他材料;2 1 m×1 m植物纤维网沙障和1 m×1 m HDPE沙障的K值均小于相同材料8 m×8 m沙障的K值,说明小规格低立式沙障防风效应,低于相同材料较大规格高立式沙障;3月积沙量数据分析表明,阻沙栅栏能有效减小积沙量,而固沙沙障内积沙量受风向和局部地形影响较大;4不同材料与不同规格沙障内的表土含水率均高于对照区裸沙地,说明防沙措施对保持土壤水分也起到了一定作用。     

风速对海岸沙丘表面风沙流结构影响的实证研究

在河北昌黎黄金海岸形态典型的横向沙脊顶部,对不同风速下的风沙流结构进行了观测。结果表明:随着风速的增加,风沙流中40 cm高度内的绝对输沙量增加,40~60 cm高度内各层的绝对输沙量减少;相对输沙量,在0~4 cm高度内减少,4~20 cm高度内增加,20~44 cm高度内变化较小,44~60 cm高度内减少;风沙流结构模式在0~40 cm高程内为指数分布,但在0~60 cm高程内随风速增大由幂函数分布转变为指数函数分布,在40~60 cm高程内则转变为相关性更强的多项式函数分布。风速变化对风沙流结构的上述影响,主要与随风速增加增大了沙粒的搬运高度以及气流搬运沙物质的粒度组成有关。     

尼龙网方格沙障防风效应复变规律

方格沙障的布设参数直接影响防风效应的复变作用,定量表达其复变规律,对于沙障配置模式的确定具有重要意义。在乌兰布和沙漠机械整平的风沙观测场,铺设9种不同高度、规格的尼龙网方格沙障,观测其在不同风速背景下的风速流场特征,揭示方格沙障防风效应的复变规律。结果表明:尼龙网方格沙障防风效应复合变化受不同指示风速下,沙障高度与规格共同的影响。沙障内部0. 1 m高度的风速随防护宽度的增加呈对数函数递减,指示风速增大1 m·s~(-1),风速衰减率增加0. 07倍;沙障高度增大0. 1 m,风速衰减率增加0. 20倍;方格边长增大1 m,风速衰减率减小0. 07倍。观测的9种规格方格沙障,30 cm高度1 m×1 m规格沙障复变作用最强,15 cm高度2 m×2 m规格沙障复变作用最弱。该结果可为确定沙障合理防护宽度、节约沙障铺设成本、优化沙障布设技术提供基础数据和理论支撑。     

吸沙式挡沙墙设计及防护效益分析

为了解决沙粒掩埋挡沙墙造成挡沙墙防护效果降低,文中基于k-ε湍流模型的RANS方法和多孔介质模型对不同参数的吸沙式挡沙墙进行数值模拟计算,并采用风洞试验验证文中所选湍流模型和网格划分策略的正确性。研究结果表明：风沙流经过挡沙墙会形成速度分区,分别为墙前减速区、墙后墙体结构导致的局部加速区、墙体正上方加速区、墙后涡流区以及恢复区。随着挡沙墙孔隙率减小,背风侧有效遮蔽区域越大,背风侧积沙位置离墙体越近,吸沙式挡沙墙的最优孔隙率在25%～35%,考虑到制造工艺,孔隙率选35%为宜;文中所设计挡沙墙的吸沙功能良好,吸沙量的大小正相关于孔隙率和来流风速;吸沙式挡沙墙周围的水平风速随高度增加逐渐从“U”型转变为“V”型分布,风速廓线在垂直方向上呈现倒“S”形分布。当风速一定时,有效防护距离随着挡沙墙高度的增加而增大,积沙范围增大;当高度一定时,积沙位置随着来流风速的增大逐渐向下风向转移。挡沙墙高度越高,承受的风压越大,工程造价上升,从防护距离和工程造价两方面考虑,四块挡沙板是吸沙式挡沙墙最合理阻沙高度。     

呼伦贝尔沙质草原风蚀坑地表风沙流结构特征

在呼伦贝尔沙质草原北部沙带中段风蚀坑集中分布区内,选取不同发育阶段的风蚀坑,通过同步观测风蚀坑地表(0～200 cm)风速及输沙通量,分析并比较风沙流结构特征,为呼伦贝尔沙质草原风蚀坑治理提供理论依据。研究表明:在裸地沙斑、活跃发展、固定阶段及重新活化阶段的风蚀坑,风速廓线基本遵循对数分布规律;而在未风蚀草地、消亡阶段的风蚀坑,气流受下垫面扰动,呈"S"形分布。风蚀坑各发育阶段输沙量与高度的最优拟合模型为负指数模型,不同发育阶段风蚀坑内部风沙流输沙量差异较为明显;超过95%的输沙量均在地表0～30 cm高度内,且63. 97%～90. 96%的输沙量集中分布在距地表10 cm高度内。风沙流跃移高度与风速正相关,依次为:活跃发展重新活化裸地沙斑固定阶段消亡阶段未风蚀草地。通过分析风沙流通量系数,可知在裸地沙斑、活跃发展及重新活化阶段,输沙量有向高层移动的趋势;而在其他阶段,由于植被盖度较高,使得风沙流多集中在近地层。     

Effects of different types of guardrails on sand transportation of desert highway pavement

Guardrail, an important highway traffic safety facility, is mainly used to prevent vehicles from accidentally driving off the road and to ensure driving safety. Desert highway guardrails hinder the movement of wind-blown sand, resulting in the decline of sand transportation by the pavement and the deposition of sand gains on the pavement, and endangering traffic safety. To reveal the influence of guardrails on sand transportation of desert highway pavement, we tested the flow field and sand transport volume distribution around the concrete, W-beam, and cable guardrails under different wind velocities through wind tunnel simulation. Wind velocity attenuation coefficients, sand transportation quantity, and sand transportation efficiency are used to measure sand transportation of highway pavement. The results show that the sand transportation of highway pavement was closely related to the zoning characteristics of flow field and variation of wind velocity around the guardrails. The flow field of the concrete guardrail was divided into deceleration, acceleration, and vortex zones. The interaction between the W-beam guardrail and wind-blown sand was similar to that of lower wind deflector. Behind and under the plates, there were the vortex zone and acceleration zone, respectively. The acceleration zone was conducive to transporting sand on the pavement. The cable guardrail only caused wind velocity variability within the height range of guardrail, and there was no sand deposition on the highway pavement. When the cable, W-beam, and concrete guardrails were used, the total transportation quantities on the highway pavement were 423.53, 415.74, and 136.53 g/min, respectively, and sand transportation efficiencies were 99.31%, 91.25%, and 12.84%, respectively. From the perspective of effective sand transportation on the pavement, the cable guardrail should be preferred as a desert highway guardrail, followed by the W-beam guardrail, and the concrete guardrail is unsuitable. The study results provide theoretical basis for the optimal design of desert highway guardrails and the prevention of wind-blown sand disasters on the highway pavement.     

青藏铁路沱沱河路段流场特征及沙害形成机理

通过对青藏铁路沱沱河路段路基流场结构、风速廓线特征的风洞模拟实验研究,发现气流在途经铁路路基时,路基断面对近地表流场改变极大,在其两侧形成明显的遇阻抬升区、集流加速区、减速沉降区以及消散恢复区。铁路沙害的形成主要是路基迎风侧气流由于遇阻抬升和集流加速,对路肩和路基中上部产生风蚀;随着气流加速抬升,底层砂粒以跌落沉降的方式堆积在路基迎风坡坡脚,造成路基沙埋;当气流越过路基,在背风侧由于减速沉降和涡旋运动,风沙流处于过饱和状态,将所携带的大量砂粒堆积在背风坡。

Interactive effects of wind speed,vegetation coverage and soil moisture in controlling wind erosion in a temperate desert steppe,Inner Mongolia of China

The rapid desertification of grasslands in Inner Mongolia of China poses a significant ecological threaten to northern China. The combined effects of anthropogenic disturbances(e.g., overgrazing) and biophysical processes(e.g., soil erosion) have led to vegetation degradation and the consequent acceleration of regional desertification. Thus, mitigating the accelerated wind erosion, a cause and effect of grassland desertification, is critical for the sustainable management of grasslands. Here, a combination of mobile wind tunnel experiments and wind erosion model was used to explore the effects of different levels of vegetation coverage, soil moisture and wind speed on wind erosion at different positions of a slope inside an enclosed desert steppe in the Xilamuren grassland of Inner Mongolia. The results indicated a significant spatial difference in wind erosion intensities depending on the vegetation coverage, with a strong decreasing trend from the top to the base of the slope. Increasing vegetation coverage resulted in a rapid decrease in wind erosion as explained by a power function correlation. Vegetation coverage was found to be a dominant control on wind erosion by increasing the surface roughness and by lowering the threshold wind velocity for erosion. The critical vegetation coverage required for effectively controlling wind erosion was found to be higher than 60%. Further, the wind erosion rates were negatively correlated with surface soil moisture and the mass flux in aeolian sand transport increased with increasing wind speed. We developed a mathematical model of wind erosion based on the results of an orthogonal array design. The results from the model simulation indicated that the standardized regression coefficients of the main effects of the three factors(vegetation coverage, soil moisture and wind speed) on the mass flux in aeolian sand transport were in the following order: wind speedvegetation coveragesoil moisture. These three factors had different levels of interactive effects on the mass flux in aeolian sand transport. Our results will improve the understanding of the interactive effects of wind speed, vegetation coverage and soil moisture in controlling wind erosion in desert steppes, and will be helpful for the design of desertification control programs in future.

Effect of the W-beam central guardrails on wind-blown sand deposition on desert expressways in sandy regions

Many desert expressways are affected by the deposition of the wind-blown sand,which might block the movement of vehicles or cause accidents.W-beam central guardrails,which are used to improve the safety of desert expressways,are thought to influence the deposition of the wind-blown sand,but this has yet not to be studied adequately.To address this issue,we conducted a wind tunnel test to simulate and explore how the W-beam central guardrails affect the airflow,the wind-blown sand flux and the deposition of the wind-blown sand on desert expressways in sandy regions.The subgrade model is 3.5 cm high and 80.0 cm wide,with a bank slope ratio of 1:3.The W-beam central guardrails model is 3.7 cm high,which included a 1.4-cm-high W-beam and a 2.3-cm-high stand column.The wind velocity was measured by using pitot-static tubes placed at nine different heights(1,2,3,5,7,10,15,30 and 50 cm)above the floor of the chamber.The vertical distribution of the wind-blown sand flux in the wind tunnel was measured by using the sand sampler,which was sectioned into 20 intervals.In addition,we measured the wind-blown sand flux in the field at K50 of the Bachu-Shache desert expressway in the Taklimakan Desert on 11 May 2016,by using a customized 78-cm-high gradient sand sampler for the sand flux structure test.Obstruction by the subgrade leads to the formation of two weak wind zones located at the foot of the windward slope and at the leeward slope of the subgrade,and the wind velocity on the leeward side weakens significantly.The W-beam central guardrails decrease the leeward wind velocity,whereas the velocity increases through the bottom gaps and over the top of the W-beam central guardrails.The vertical distribution of the wind-blown sand flux measured by wind tunnel follows neither a power-law nor an exponential function when affected by either the subgrade or the W-beam central guardrails.At 0.0H and 0.5H(where H=3.5 cm,which is the height of the subgrade),the sand transport is less at the 3 cm height from the subgrade surface than at the 1 and 5 cm heights as a result of obstruction by the W-beam central guardrails,and the maximum sand transportation occurs at the 5 cm height affected by the subgrade surface.The average saltation height in the presence of the W-beam central guardrails is greater than the subgrade height.The field test shows that the sand deposits on the overtaking lane leeward of the W-beam central guardrails and that the thickness of the deposited sand is determined by the difference in the sand mass transported between the inlet and outlet points,which is consistent with the position of the minimum wind velocity in the wind tunnel test.The results of this study could help us to understand the hazards of the wind-blown sand onto subgrade with the W-beam central guardrails.     

Dynamic changes of a typical linear dune in the Tengger Desert

The dynamical processes of a typical linear dune including morphological features, dune ridge swing range and crest height were investigated at different monitoring periods in the hinterland of Tengger Desert. The results indicated that the development of linear dune depends on not only the northwesterly prevailing wind, but also the winds from northeast and southwest. The dune ridge swayed along its fundamental strike and took on an eastward movement gradually. The original dune strike was NW70° on August 3, 1994, and then changed to NE15° on April 21, 2001. The dune crest increased by 1.8 m longitudinally, which manifested strong wind-blown sand activities in this region. Wind erosion frequently occured at the bottom of sand dune, while sand accumulation appeared on its mid-upper section. The mean wind erosion depth was 25 cm on the bottom of linear dune and the height difference of the control points on the dune's ridge was 1.13 m. Although the linear dune swayed laterally, the horizontal displacement of its ridge moved eastward 5.8 m averagely. The swing range of the dune crest line is very distinct, with a maximum value of 13.2 m. The highest site on the K-profile swayed on both sides of the dune ridge and the heights were 19.88 m at the control point K5, 19.61 m at K6 and 19.05 m at K7, respectively. The results indicated that the lateral swing of the linear dune was distinct under the northwesterly wind and it moved toward east gradually.
