摘  要:We present the results of two ground-based radio-echo-sounding(RES) and GPS surveys performed in the vicinity of new Chinese Taishan station,Princess Elizabeth Land,East Antarctica,obtained in two austral summers during CHINARE 21(2004/2005) and CHINARE 29(2012/2013).The radar surveys measured ice thickness and internal layers using 60- and 150-MHz radar systems,and GPS measurements showed smooth surface slopes around the station with altitudes of 2607-2636 m above sea level(a.s.l.).Radar profiles indicate an average ice thickness of 1900 m,with a maximum of 1949 m and a minimum of 1856 m,within a square area measuring approximately 2 km × 2 km in the vicinity of the station.The ice thickness beneath the station site is 1870 m.The subglacial landscape beneath the station is quiet sharp and ranges from 662 to 770 m a.s.l.,revealing part of a mountainous topography.The ice volume in the grid is estimated to be 7.6 km^3.Along a 60-MHz radar profile with a length of 17.6 km at the region covering the station site,some disturbed internal layers are identified and traced;the geometry of internal layers within the englacial stratigraphy may imply a complex depositional process in the area.中国第21次(2004/2005,CHINARE 21)和第29次(2012/2013,CHINARE 29)南极科学考察在东南极冰盖伊丽莎白公主地中国泰山考察站站址所在区域,通过探地冰雷达和GPS进行了两次地球物理探测。使用中心频率分别为60MHz和150MHz的冰雷达探测,首次(2004/2005)获得该地区的冰厚与冰内部等时层结构。GPS观测显示以泰山站站址为中心约2km×2km范围内的冰盖表面地形起伏很小,海拔为2607-2636m。冰盖雷达断面显示该区域的平均冰厚为1900m,最大冰厚为1949m,最小冰厚为1856m。在泰山站站址下方冰厚为1870m。冰盖表面高程与冰厚数据联合分析发现该地区的冰下地形相对起伏剧烈,海拔为662-770m,反映出冰下地形为山地地貌。该2km×2km测量网格下方的冰量为7.6km3。60MHz冰雷达数据给出一条长17.6km,穿越泰山站的冰盖断面内部等时层结构图。从中识别分析出一些内部等时层,结果表明该处的冰盖内部等时层受到了冰流的扰动,内部等时层的几何形态暗示了泰山站所处的冰盖下方很可能经历了一个复杂的沉积过程。
