Classification of Alpine-type travertine in Jiuzhaigou valley on the eastern margin of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau

doi: 10.11932/karst20210112

  • The travertine in Jiuzhaigou valley not only has unique tourism and aesthetic values,but also plays an important role in geological archives for the study of paleo-climate,paleo-hazards,paleo-earthquake/active structures,plateau uplift and the Anthropocene. Whether from the perspective of tourism,science popularization,or scientific research,classification research on tufa is the premise and foundation. In this article,based on the theory of earth system science,we analyze the controlling factors of inorganic and organic from the source of travertine material to the depositional environment,and classify it according to facies,classes and subclasses of sedimentary morphology. The criterion for the classification is that the depositional environment determines the hydrodynamic conditions and the degree of biological participation,which in turn forms the ever-changing tufa deposition geomorphology, and finally constitutes a colorful travertine landscape. The structure-genesis types of tufa divided herein have important guiding significance for the genetic research of "Jiuzhaigou-type travertine". Meanwhile,this article also makes a landscape-morphological classification of tufa from the perspective of tourism and science popularization,which provides a higher degree of identification and ecological conservation data for mass tourism,science popularization and management departments.
