The present application relates to the technical field of
provenance identification, and particularly relates to a method for identifying the material source of coastal and
shallow sea zircon sand, based on multi-source
sediment analysis, which comprises the following steps: S1: obtaining
sediment samples in the coastal and
shallow sea area, respectively performing heavy sand mineral separation and identification and
chemical element analysis, and obtaining heavy sand identification data and element content data; S2: performing
morphological analysis on
zircon in the heavy sand identification data, obtaining morphological characteristic data of
zircon, and simultaneously, constructing a
sediment dynamic correction model and outputting corrected element content data; S3: inputting the heavy sand identification data, morphological characteristic data and corrected element content data into a
provenance identification model, outputting the material
source area of the coastal and
shallow sea zircon sand, the contribution proportion of each
source area, and identifying the sediment
path system to which the material
source area belongs. The present application improves the resolution capability of the material source area under multi-source mixed supply, and enhances the stability and adaptability of classification and identification.
