摘要
中国边缘海大陆架在晚更新世时期曾是海岸平原,在古长江、古黄河泥沙填充下形成了陆架堆积体,并在全新世发育了南黄海辐射沙脊群、废黄河三角洲和长江三角洲。根据点状的地质钻孔分析和重建,对南黄海—江苏海岸的沉积体系的分布和变化机制尚不明了。作为动力机制探讨,基于气候—海面—沉积系统,根据气候水文学、沉积学原理以及泥沙沉积面的动态高程计算,构建了气候冰川驱动—东黄海地海系统响应—河流沉积建造的数值模式,模拟了14万年、4万年和1万年不同时间尺度江苏海岸线和长江三角洲沉积的变化过程和分布,进而对冰川气候、构造沉降、沉积压实等复杂效应下的海面特征、陆源泥沙沉积和海岸线进行分析。模拟结果与地质钻孔资料揭示的层序和埋深能够进行对比。
There had been a coastal plain in a continental shelf of the Yellow Sea during the late Pleistocene,on which filled abundant terrestrial-sourced sediments under transportation and deposition of ancient Yangtze River and Yellow River. The South Yellow Sea Radial Sand Ridges,the Yangtze River Deltas and the abandoned Yellow River Deltas were developed on the sediment system. However the evolution patterns and mechanisms are hardly understood if only based on discrete evidence from geological cores. To recognize key issues on the glaciation sea levels and costal sedimentation changes,on the basis of hydrology,sedimentology,and geomorphologic elevations,this study attemptes to construct a numeric model to simulate the changes in the processes and patterns. The model is constructed in two modules: one submodel is built for the glacial-driven sea level and post-tectonic and sediment compaction-impacted relative sea level. The other submodel is for coastal sedimentation under varied sea levels and with river mud-transportation. Three coastal types in the South Yellow Sea radial sand ridges,the Yangtze River deltas and the abandoned Yellow River deltas were prescribed,and the Holocene boundaries of coastal lines that were reconstructed by geological evidence were also prescribed. The model was run by glaciation and climate forces of the late Pleistocene,and simulated the patterns and processes of sea levels,coastal lines and coastal-estuaries sediment flux since 140 ka B.P.,40 ka B.P. and 10 ka B.P. respectively. The results showed that seal levels were the lowest in 19 ka B.P. when it was during the last maximum glaciation,which inland lakes were formed between continental coasts and the Ryukyu Islands. During the late glaciation ca.14 ka B.P.,the sea level started to rise and the inland lakes were formed in sea areas of the Yellow Sea. Between the early Holocene and the mid-Holocene,the sea transgression was occurred to the low plains of Jiangsu,and the coastal lines arrived the west to Fangong Dam,ca 6ka B.P.. Furth
