Observation and Research on Gravitational Erosion Process of Bank Slopes in Headstream Area of Jiangjia Ravine, Yunnan, China

To reveal the gravitational erosion process in the headstream area of Jiangjia Ravine, continuous observation was conduced duing the rainy season. The observation and research show that the change of water content of the bank slope lags the precipitation process, the infiltration water concentrates mainly in the shallow layer of the bank slope, also the bank slope was unsaturated, the floods and debris flows in the gully down cut the gully bed, and scour the foot of the bank slope. These results in many collapses, which is the main type of gravitational erosion process, and it provides large amounts of loose solid materials for the eruption of debris flows.

云南省水蚀荒漠化遥感调查及成因分析

采用RS及GIS技术,对云南省水蚀荒漠化进行遥感调查,综合分析其分布规律及成因,提出防治对策。研究表明:云南省2008年水蚀荒漠化土地面积为35 949.69 km2,占云南省土地面积的9.39%;地质环境、地形地貌等自然因素决定了云南省水蚀荒漠化的整体空间分布特征,人为因素可诱发水蚀荒漠化或加剧水蚀荒漠化程度。建议优先部署滇东、滇中典型高原中山地貌区内沉积岩中泥岩、粘土岩、碳酸盐岩分布区,第四系松散沉积物分布区,以及金沙江—红河断裂带南段等7条活动断裂附近区域的水蚀荒漠化防治工作,完善已有生态环境保护工程,减轻人口压力,规范矿业开发等工业活动,防止人为因素诱发和加剧水蚀荒漠化。
