Theoretical System and Research Progress of Eolian Deposits
摘要
Abstract
[Significance]Eolian deposition,a product of wind erosion,transportation,and accumulation on the surface of the Earth,has a wide spatiotemporal distribution in geological history.Its formation and evolution are close-ly related to arid climatic conditions and the relatively continuous subsidence of paleogeographic backgrounds,mak-ing it an important carrier and ideal material for regional paleogeography and paleoclimatology research.After nearly a century of research,a relatively complete theoretical system of eolian deposition has been formed internationally,effectively promoting the identification and interpretation of ancient eolian deposits.Given the lack of a systematic in-troduction to eolian deposition theory in China,it is necessary to provide a review to enhance understanding of eolian deposition theory and research methods.[Progress]By reviewing previous literature and drawing upon personal re-search experience,a comprehensive review of the theoretical framework of eolian deposition was conducted,focusing on aspects such as atmospheric flow characteristics,fluid properties and wind fields,sediment transport,composi-tion and structure of eolian deposits,eolian bedforms,eolian stratigraphy,eolian bounding surfaces,eolian deposi-tional systems,and the formation and preservation of eolian deposits.[Conclusions and Prospects]Inverse grain size sequences in wind ripple marks,wind ripple strata,desert varnish on particle surfaces,dish-shaped impact cra-ters,crescent-shaped impact craters,graded arcs,and overturned laminations in quartz microtextures can serve as absolute indicators for identifying eolian deposition.A comprehensive analysis of aeolian stratigraphy and erosional bounding surfaces is a fundamental method for reconstructing ancient dune types.Using interdisciplinary approach-es,it is possible to effectively extract paleogeographic and paleoclimatic information contained within eolian depos-its,which is of great scientific significance for studying regional and global geological events.关键词
