文摘全球气候变暖严重影响冰川的稳定性,南极多条冰川表面发生塌陷。由于缺少高空间和高时间分辨率的南极地表高程模型DEM(Digital Elevation Model),目前单支冰川表面时空变化的研究不充分。利用2011年—2016年11期南极参考高程模型REMA(The Reference Elevation Model of Antarctica)数据,开展东南极达尔克冰川表面塌陷区域的高程变化监测,并利用Landsat 7/8和Worldview-2光学影像等数据分析塌陷过程和原因。结果表明,达尔克冰川在2013年发生了一起严重的塌陷事件,塌陷深度最大约45.29 m,造成了约26.29×10^(6)m^(3)的水体损失;塌陷发生后,该区表面高程不断增加,于2016年恢复至塌陷前的高程。塌陷区具有明显的整体性沉降特征,并存在融水聚集,推测塌陷和达尔克冰川冰下湖的排水过程存在密切的联系。本研究证明达尔克冰川存在较大的不稳定性,同时验证了REMA数据监测冰川表面塌陷的可行性,为未来精细化监测南极冰盖/冰架响应气候变化提供技术参考。
