植被沙障对近地表风沙流特征影响的风洞实验

植被沙障在一些地区已成为沙害防治的有效手段,其应用也越来越广泛,但对其治沙机理尚不很清楚.在盖度为10%,15%,20%,30%,40%,60%情况下,对植被沙障的防风固沙效益进行了风洞试验.实验风速设置为6,8,11 m/s,测定不同植被盖度的风速廓线特征、风沙流结构特征及其防沙效果.实验结果表明:①积沙总量随盖度增加而逐渐降低,风沙流中的砂粒分布在一定的高度范围内,但分布的高度随盖度的增加呈下降趋势;②植株的茂密程度对风沙流的结构有明显影响,盖度越高,积沙量越集中在下部;③盖度并不是导致积沙量为零的唯一指标,风蚀是否发生,还与植被的疏透度、防护林的高度等有关.

乌兰布和沙漠天然灌丛防风阻沙效益研究

对乌兰布和沙漠封沙育草带内的天然灌丛周围风速及输沙量的野外观测结果表明,天然白刺灌丛沙堆对风沙流具有阻滞作用,风沙流在迎风面受阻堆积,在背风面风速下降40.3~42.1%,并形成低速区,引起沙粒堆积;沙蒿灌丛对2m高处风速没有影响,但可引起灌丛背风面近地表0.5m处风速下降20.5%。灌丛的迎风面存在一个减速区,灌丛顶部及两侧为加速区,灌丛背风面存在一个静风区和一个尾流区。灌丛侧面的输沙量最大,背风面输沙量最小,迎风面2H处输沙量大于1H处,这与各点的风速变化是一致的。对不同盖度沙地的输沙量进行的观测表明,输沙能力随植被盖度的增加而减小,流动沙地输沙量最大,在5.6~9.4m/s风速范围内输沙量为2.25~21.75g,半固定沙地的输沙量次之,为0.32~13.58g,固定沙地最小,为0.06~2.29g。

来流廓线对风沙流场和风沙堆积影响的数值模拟——以挡沙墙为例

来流风速廓线是控制与影响风沙流场变化的关键因素。基于CFD欧拉非定常模型,通过对不同来流廓线形式在特定粗糙度下垫面的数值分析,探究来流廓线对流场风速与积沙形态的影响。结果表明:2种来流廓线形式均在挡沙墙周围形成速度分区。其中,在背风侧,均匀流时回流区不明显,对数流时则回流区较明显;在迎风侧,均匀流时速度发生突变,对数流时则呈对数规律递增;不同来流形式下挡沙墙积沙分布不同,均匀流时只在背风侧形成积沙,而对数流时两侧均有积沙,且迎风侧积沙多于背风侧,来流速度越大,迎风侧积沙减小,而背风侧增多。     

土壤水分对毛乌素沙地油蒿群落演替的影响

采用空间代替时间的方法,对毛乌素沙地三种不同演替阶段的油蒿(Artemisia ordosica)群落(半固定沙地油蒿群落、具生物结皮的油蒿群落、油蒿+本氏针茅群落)的群落特征及生物量、叶片气体交换过程、不同土层(0-10cm、10-20cm、20-40cm、40-60cm、60-80cm)土壤含水量、根系垂直分布等进行测定.结果表明:油蒿群落演替是油蒿与草本植物竞争、生物结皮发育、土壤发育以及土壤水分垂直变化等生物非生物因素综合作用的结果.随着油蒿群落演替的发展,群落物种数、草本层盖度和生物量、群落总盖度逐渐增加,而油蒿个体数、油蒿盖度、油蒿叶生物量以及生物土壤结皮盖度则先增加后减少,油蒿根系有向下分布的趋势,0-10cm土层逐渐以草本植物根系占优势.土壤水分是毛乌素沙地油蒿群落演替的主要驱动力,通过影响油蒿叶片气孔导度和净光合速率,以及根系垂直分布影响油蒿在群落中的竞争力.不同演替阶段油蒿群落土壤水分低值区不同,半固定沙地油蒿群落0-10cm和20-40cm土壤含水量最低,具生物结皮的油蒿群落10-20cm土壤含水量最低,而油蒿+本氏针茅群落60-80cm土壤含水量最低.     

策勒不同下垫面风速廓线时空差异研究

通过对新疆策勒4个下垫面10m高风速廓线及粗糙度、摩阻风速等分析,探讨不同时空条件下植被和地形对风场的影响。结果表明:在中性层结下,从流沙前沿到半固定沙地、固定沙地扬沙天气风速廓线斜率依次降低,风速较大时基本符合对数关系,其拟合程度依次是半固定沙地﹥固定沙地﹥流沙地,绿洲内部2m以上高度的风速较大时与高度基本符合对数关系。春季沙尘暴期间风速较小时半固定沙地0-10m高及绿洲内部2m以上高度风速与高度变化接近对数关系,当夏季沙尘暴风速较大时,4个下垫面不同高度风速与高度之间都不呈现对数关系。随着地表植被覆盖度的增加,粗糙度和摩阻风速也迅速增加,绿洲内部夏季沙尘暴天气近地表粗糙度比春季地表粗糙度增加较为显著。     

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.

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 flexible and rigid roughness elements on aeolian sand transport

In developing countermeasures to reduce the negative effects of strong dust events, the fundamental relationship between surface conditions and sand transport remains problematic. We conducted field observations and wind tunnel experiments to examine the effect on sand transport efficiency of actual frontal area when using flexible roughness elements (artificial grass) and rigid roughness elements (tufts of stiff wire). In the field observations, the sand trap ratio approached a limit as the frontal area of artificial grass, measured as the Actual Frontal Area Index (AFAI), approached 25%, equivalent to a vegetation cover of 20%. The wind tunnel experiments showed that the height of deposited sediment decreased downwind with both roughness elements, due to their reduction of both shear velocity and sand transport rates. The sediment flux decreased as the AFAI increased, and the rigid roughness element trapped more sand particles than the flexible one except at higher wind speeds and lower AFAI values. The sand trapping efficiency was greater for rigid roughness elements than for flexible ones, probably due to their high aerodynamic resistance, and thus wire tufts were more effective for trapping sand than artificial grass at higher AFAI values.     

毛乌素流动沙地飞播后基质的变化与播区植被的演变

流动沙地飞播以后，随着基质稳定性的不断增强，即随着沙地由流动到半固定和固定状态的变化，沙地的物理和化学性质都会发生一系列的变化，而群落环境的变化又往往对飞播植物产生不利的影响。研究表明，毛乌素流动沙地飞播以后植物群落自身引起的群落环境的改变主要表现在地表０—１０ｃｍ深度内土壤粘粒含量、有机质含量、水解Ｎ含量和ＰａＯ５含量的增加以及盐酸和碳酸钙的淋洗。沙地的这些理化性质的变化又正是群落进展．演替的动力，而群落的进展演替则表现在飞播植物的衰退和天然植物油蒿以及草本植物盖度和群落丰富度的增加。本文研究了毛乌素流动沙地飞播以后沙地理化性质的变化以及这些变化对植物群落本身的影响。

Effects of sand-fixing and windbreak forests on wind flow: a synthesis of results from field experiments and numerical simulations

Sand-fixing and windbreak forests are widely used to protect or/and improve the ecological environments in arid and semi-arid regions. A full understanding of wind flow characteristics is essential to arranging the patterns of these protective forests for enhancing the effectiveness. In this study, the wind velocity over the underlying surface with sand-fixing forests and windbreak forests at the heights of 1–49 m was monitored from two 50-m high observation towers in an oasis of Minqin, Gansu Province of China. The wind velocities were simulated at different locations over these protective forests between those two towers by a two-dimensional Computational Fluid Dynamics(CFD) model. The results showed that at the heights of 1–49 m, the wind velocity profiles followed a classical logarithm law at the edge of the oasis and a multilayer structure inside the oasis. With increasing number of sand-fixing forest and windbreak forest arrays, the wind velocity at the heights of 1–49 m generally decreased along the downstream direction of the prevailing wind. Specifically, below the height of windbreak forests, the wind velocity decelerates as the airflow approaches to the windbreak forests and then accelerates as the airflow passes over the windbreak forests. In contrast, above the height of windbreak forests, the wind velocity accelerates as the airflow approaches to the windbreak forests and then generally decelerates as the airflow passes over the windbreak forests. Both the array number and array spacing of sand-fixing and windbreak forests could influence the wind velocity. The wind protection effects of sand-fixing forests were closely related to the array spacing of windbreak forests and increased with the addition of sand-fixing forests when the array of the forests was adequately spaced. However, if the array spacing of windbreak forests was smaller than seven times of the heights of windbreak forests, the effects were reduced or completely masked by the effects of windbreak forests. The results could offer theoretical guidelines on how to systematically arrange the patterns of sand-fixing and windbreak forests for preventing wind erosion in the most convenient and the cheapest ways.
