SARS流行期的气候学尺度分析

对SARS疫区流行期的气候特征作了统计分析.发现它们共同的特征是月均温在5～22 ℃,降水偏少,约在90 mm以下,其中疫情爆发月均温13～17 ℃.在疫区,如果出现气温日较差较小、大气污染指数高的天气,大约8 d后出现疫情峰值.由于SARS第一次在人群中发现,并且缺乏病毒学研究,本项研究的结论是解释性的.

多重密度布点对土壤有机质空间特性的解析

论文以张家港市耕层土壤有机质（Soil organic matter, SOM）为目标变量,通过网格布点建立11种样点密度梯度,运用经典统计学和地统计学方法研究其空间特性随布点密度变化的趋势规律。结果表明,各密度下SOM的变异系数稳定在21.70%~23.12%之间,表现出中等程度变异;随着布点密度降低,SOM的块基比和分维数分别由37.52%、1.838波动降至18.70%、1.714,Moran’s I则由0.485起伏升高至0.857,相应地其空间变异中结构变异组分增多、随机变异贡献减少,空间自相关性也逐渐增强;SOM呈现西南-东北递减分布,随着样点密度减小,其空间格局趋于简化。论文以布点密度为视窗,揭示了SOM的多重空间尺度特征,可为解析土壤属性的层级结构提供参考依据。     

江汉平原县域尺度土壤有机质空间变异特征与合理采样数研究

土壤有机质含量是衡量土壤肥力和评价耕地质量的重要指标。在县域尺度下,利用合理数量的样点反映其空间分异特征具有重要意义。论文选取位于江汉平原腹地的湖北省公安县为研究区,布设了4 045个样点并测定其有机质含量,采用半方差分析得到土壤有机质空间变异特征,基于Moran’s I揭示空间变异较大地区,并通过二分法的思想逼近最佳合理采样数值。结果表明：研究区土壤有机质分布呈中等空间相关性,有6个局部区域的空间变异明显高于邻近地区,采样点数量与插值精度呈正相关,合理采样数为598个。研究结果可以为江汉平原县域耕地质量监测和管控提供指导。     

城市家庭规模与结构对生活污水排放特征影响分析

以北京、上海、广州、兰州、昆明等5个城市30个中等收入城市家庭为研究对象,探讨了家庭规模、家庭结构对生活污水排放特征的影响.结果表明,城市家庭生活污水中各污染物排放量随家庭规模增大而增大,其中受家庭规模经济影响,COD、BOD的排放强度呈现出较为明显的边际递减规律,而TN、TP主要受家庭居民个体因素影响;综合考虑家庭规模、家庭结构的影响,首次提出家庭污染等效因子,把所考察的家庭转换成“等价(参照)家庭”,相对于参照家庭而言,所考察的家庭的污染排放状况与家庭污染等效因子成正比,由此反映不同家庭类型与生活污水排放之间的特定关系.     

An empirical investigation of returns to scale: The Welsh coal industry

This article attempts to study both returns to scale and optimal size of production. Specifically, the authors estimate a ray-homothetic production function which allows the returns to scale to vary with ouput size and input mix. The production model is estimated using data from the Welsh coal industry for the period 1961–1976. Findings showed that, first, the Welsh coal industry suffers from a level of production which is either too small or below its optimal level and, second, this discrepancy between actual and optimal production worsened over the period considered.     

Examining Landscape Dynamics at a Watershed Scale Using Landsat TM Imagery for Detection of Wintering Hooded Crane Decline in Yashiro,Japan

It is usually inappropriate to define rectangular land areas or administrative units as the extent for quantifying landscapes that possess hierarchical structure. As a functional unit established by geophysical relationships, the watershed is one of many natural scales in the hierarchical landscape. We examined the dynamics of the Yashiro watershed of Japan at the landscape level using pattern metrics based on Landsat thematic mapper (TM) imagery from 1985 to 1998. This watershed provides important habitats for the hooded crane (Grus monachus), a vulnerable species. While its world population has remained stable, the number wintering at Yashiro has declined in recent years. Changes in landscape metrics reveal that the spatial pattern within the watershed underwent homogenization due to depopulation of local people and shifts in local energy requirements and forest management policy at Yashiro. Specific changes include: a decrease in bare land area from 6.2% to 1.0% of the landscape, increased forest cover from 69.2% to 76.1%, reduction in patch number from 1194 to 616 and enlarged mean patch size, and a decrease in total edge from 223,740 m to 158,040 m. The rate of change in landscape metrics indicates a rapid change towards homogeneity in the landscape since 1990. The temporal changes in hooded crane populations corresponded to the changes in landscape. An alternative explanation has been proposed that decline of the species is influenced by landscape dynamics affecting both habitat selection and food resources. Conservation at the watershed scale is suggested to be complementary to the current conservation measures of the species.     

Coping with Change: The Small Experiment as a Strategic Approach to Environmental Sustainability

The patterns of living, planning, and resource utilization as practiced in Western countries for decades are not sustainable; change of some sort is essential. But what changes are appropriate, and, perhaps more important, will people accept them? The small experiment framework provides a strategy for meeting the challenge of change. By encouraging participation, limiting the scale of initial change, and incorporating some aspects of the familiar, many of the difficulties that make change so problematic can be mitigated or even eliminated. An exploration, from a psychological perspective, of the characteristic difficulties surrounding potential change provides the context for a discussion of the components of the small experiment and an analysis of how these elements address these characteristic challenges. A comparison to adaptive management is drawn, and several concrete examples illustrate how the strategy has been used successfully to address a variety of environmental problems.
