    摘要:

    在过去的20多年中,有学者将暴露于地表,地貌学称之为壶穴的所有臼状地形统称为“冰臼”,且作为古冰川作用的证据。事实上,他们宣传的“冰臼”是流水或差异风化形成的壶穴,而非古冰川所成。在众多论著中,以韩同林先生《发现冰臼》造成的混乱为最。从冰川学的角度来看,冰川运动、消融等理论并不支持“冰臼”是由冰川作用所成的观点,其主要错误之处有三:(1)在冰川学中,“Moulin”一词指的是冰川表面热融形成的负地形,所涉及是冰川冰,而非冰川的下覆岩床;(2)此书借用早已放弃的冰水穿洞假说来论述“冰臼群”的形成过程,在常态运动的冰川上是行不通的;(3)书中冰融水形成的圆柱状滚流假说更与事实不符。这几点足以说明“冰臼成因说”是不能成立的,仅是一种错误的推测而已。

    Abstract:

    The landform similar to mortar was called “moulin” by Han Tonglin and some other scholars. They considered these landforms were formed by the scouring of meltwater, which ran through the crevasses from top to bottom and its continual dropping wore away the bedrock. Therefore, the “moulins” and “moulin groups” are regarded as a very important evidence of ancient glaciers. Actually, the socalled “moulins” or “moulin groups” are multiple genesis landforms, called “kettle holes” or “potholes” in modern geomorphology. Reviewing the available literatures, the most chaos was caused by Moulin Discovery that has been written by Mr. Han Tonglin. On the sight of glaciology, the theories such as glacier movement and ablation, which do not support the view that “Moulin” is formed by glacialization .The following are some comments on the mistakes in that book. Firstly, according to the knowledge of glaciology, moulins or moulin groups are a kind of negative relief on glacier surface and formed by melting, rather than the bedrock. In other words, they refer to glacial ice, not the bedrock. Secondly, Brgger’s hypothesis of moulin formation—— meltwater penetrated through crevasses to erode the bedrock has already been abandoned. However, Mr. Han chose this abandoned hypothesis to interpretate the formation of moulins or moulin groups in his book. On the basis of glacier knowledge, it is impossible for moulins or moulin groups to form beneath glaciers due to the movement of glacier. Thirdly, the hypothesis of cylindrical roller meltwater flow that focus on one point to erode the bedrock is not consistent with the facts, for the meltwater lubricates the glacier's bottom and accelerates its movement. In addition, there are more or less rock debris and confined groundwater at the bottom of glacier, they will keep the bedrock from erosion. The above comments indicate that the hypothesis in Han Tonglin's book is not correct, it is just a surmise of Mr. Han Tonglin and some other scholars.
