簡(jiǎn)要介紹
1) 飽和-非飽和流與水氣二相流參數(shù)模型研究
非飽和滲透系數(shù)是含水層中飽和-非飽和流與水氣二相流的關(guān)鍵參數(shù)。已有的非飽和滲透系數(shù)模型，對(duì)于飽和-非飽和流低估了實(shí)測(cè)值；對(duì)于水氣二相流則高估了實(shí)測(cè)值。不準(zhǔn)確的非飽和滲透系數(shù)可能是制約數(shù)值模擬精度的瓶頸。匡星星團(tuán)隊(duì)改進(jìn)了van Genuchten模型，新模型改進(jìn)了非飽和滲透系數(shù)對(duì)實(shí)測(cè)數(shù)據(jù)的吻合程度。成果發(fā)表在國(guó)際土壤學(xué)重要期刊《European Journal of Soil Science》?？镄切菆F(tuán)隊(duì)推導(dǎo)出了一個(gè)新的非飽和空氣滲透系數(shù)模型，提高了計(jì)算值與實(shí)測(cè)值之間的吻合程度。成果發(fā)表在國(guó)際水文水資源頂級(jí)期刊《Water Resources Research》。
滲透系數(shù)是控制地殼中流體流動(dòng)的最重要的參數(shù)。地殼的滲透系數(shù)隨深度衰減。已有的描述這種衰減關(guān)系的模型要么在地表數(shù)值趨于無(wú)窮大，要么隨深度衰減得太快。匡星星團(tuán)隊(duì)提出了一個(gè)新的模型，該模型克服了現(xiàn)有模型的缺點(diǎn)，可用于描述整個(gè)地殼的滲透系數(shù)隨深度的變化。成果發(fā)表在國(guó)際地球科學(xué)綜合重要期刊《Geophysical Research Letters》。
2) 飽和-非飽和流與水氣二相流試驗(yàn)與數(shù)值模擬
試驗(yàn)研究和數(shù)值模擬是研究地下水資源、地下水水質(zhì)的不可或缺的重要手段。上覆低滲透性地層的二元結(jié)構(gòu)潛水含水層在自然界普遍存在。研究這種二元結(jié)構(gòu)潛水含水層抽水試驗(yàn)引起的水、氣流動(dòng)機(jī)理以及空氣流對(duì)抽水試驗(yàn)的影響變得非常重要?？镄切菆F(tuán)隊(duì)通過(guò)室內(nèi)試驗(yàn)研究與數(shù)值模擬，從機(jī)理上闡明了這種二元結(jié)構(gòu)潛水含水層抽水試驗(yàn)引起的水氣二相流機(jī)理，包括雙層砂柱排水試驗(yàn)與模擬、雙層砂箱抽水試驗(yàn)與模擬、以及雙層潛水含水層抽水試驗(yàn)數(shù)值模擬。相關(guān)成果發(fā)表在國(guó)際水資源著名期刊上，包括《Water Resources Research》、《Hydrological Processes》、以及《Hydrogeology Journal》。
3) 多孔介質(zhì)溶質(zhì)運(yùn)移數(shù)值模擬
三角洲地區(qū)的含水層系統(tǒng)往往呈現(xiàn)出多層的特征，含水層與弱透水層交替出現(xiàn)。由于三角洲地區(qū)在經(jīng)濟(jì)社會(huì)中的重要性，三角洲地層中的溶質(zhì)運(yùn)移過(guò)程是一個(gè)受到廣泛關(guān)注的問(wèn)題?；趯?duì)二元結(jié)構(gòu)潛水含水層的研究，建立了一個(gè)考慮連續(xù)沉積過(guò)程的溶質(zhì)運(yùn)移模型，并將該模型運(yùn)用于模擬珠江三角洲含水層-弱透水層系統(tǒng)中氯離子和氫氧同位素的運(yùn)移機(jī)理。相關(guān)成果發(fā)表在國(guó)際水資源重要期刊《Hydrological Processes》和《Hydrogeology Journal》。
4) 地下水對(duì)氣候變化的響應(yīng)
由于全球氣候變暖，高海拔地區(qū)的冰川正在后退，凍土正在退化。作為水循環(huán)中至關(guān)重要的一環(huán)，地下水也正在受到氣候變暖的影響。由于高海拔地區(qū)往往是大江大河的源頭地區(qū)，因此，研究高海拔地區(qū)氣候變暖對(duì)地下水流系統(tǒng)的影響，具有重要的意義?？镄切菆F(tuán)隊(duì)正在研究全球氣候變暖引起的青藏高原冰雪融化對(duì)地下水流系統(tǒng)的影響。由于全球氣候變暖，青藏高原上的冰雪和冰川正在融化。這種冰雪的融化可能對(duì)地下水流系統(tǒng)產(chǎn)生重大的影響。相關(guān)成果發(fā)表在該領(lǐng)域重要期刊《Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres》。
