中文摘要
建议为一项快速反应提案提供资金,以研究9月中旬飓风弗洛伊德和随后席卷北卡罗来纳州海岸的洪水的沉积学后果。有两个问题需要解决:1)100-500年的洪水事件会在外滩堰洲岛留下什么样的沉积特征?2)河口地区临时储存的近期细粒沉积物是否被广泛动员?沉积物的积累和再活化过程不仅对沉积物、金属和有机污染物的封存很重要,而且对养分的储存和释放也很重要。这项研究提供了一个独特的机会来回答一些与大风暴对沉积物的封存和再悬浮/重新定位有关的更重要的问题。
英文摘要
Funding is recommended for a Rapid Response Proposal to study the sedimentological aftermath of the mid-September Hurricane Floyd and the flood that followed and crossed the coast of North Carolina. Two questions are to be addressed: 1) What kind of sedimentary signature does a 100-500 year flooding event leave behind the Outer Banks barrier inslands? and, 2) Is there widespread mobilization of fine-grained recent sediments from temporary storage in estuarine areas? Sedimentary accumulation and remobilization processes are important to understand not only for the sequestration of sedimens and metallic and organic pollutants, but also for nutrient storage and release. The study provides a unique opportunity to answer some of the more important questions related to sequestration and resuspension/redoposition of sediments by major storms.
