影响海岸线位置的因素,既有全球尺度因素,如海平面升降,又有区域尺度因素,如泥沙沉积、地壳运动、人类活动等导致的陆面升降。最新研究表明,冰盖消融形成的消融区内,冰盖重力导致的岩层形变缓慢恢复,持续影响着该范围的海岸线位置。距今约1.8万年,北美冰盖开始消融,形成广大消融区。图7显示甲(位于太平洋北岸阿拉斯加的基岩海岸区)、乙(位于墨西哥湾密西西比河的河口三角洲)两站监测的海平面的相对变化。海平面的相对变化是陆面和海平面共同变化的结果。
说明导致乙站所在区域海岸线变化的主要人为影响方式。
正确答案及解析
正确答案
大量排放温室气体,导致气候变暖,加速冰川消融和海水热膨胀,导致海平面上升;密西西比河流域内水利设施拦水拦沙,导致河口三角洲萎缩,海岸线向陆地推进。
