The role of water in the development of The Netherlands— a historical perspective

In this paper an overview is presented of the landscape development of the low-lying parts of The Netherlands. It is shown that water has played an important role in this development. Since prehistoric times, but especially since about 800 AD, man has gradually occupied the low lands along the sea and the main rivers. Through these settlements a chain of actions and reactions of man and his physical environment was set into motion. This chain of events is briefly outlined. It is stated and also illustrated that not only the characteristics of the landscape of the western part of The Netherlands, but also the organization of the Dutch society has been influenced strongly by manÕs need to cope with the omnipresence of water and the threats and opportunities posed by that. It is concluded that the outlined events can only be understood properly if interdisciplinary research takes a more prominent role than it does now.     

武汉市湿地景观格局变化研究

在遥感和地理信息系统支持下,利用1996年和2001年两个时期的Landsat TM假彩色合成影像作为信息源,选取斑块密度、斑块分维数、景观破碎度、景观多样性、优势度和均匀度等指标,对武汉市湿地景观格局的变化进行定量分析,并利用马尔科夫转移矩阵模型研究各类景观的转化情况。研究结果表明,1996~2001年间,该研究区的湿地景观格局在人类活动的影响下发生了较大变化,湖泊面积减小,人工湿地面积增加,湿地景观趋于破碎化,景观分布趋于均匀。     

Human impact on the landscape of small islands in the West-Estonian archipelago

Research on the development of the interrelationships between society and environment is crucial for the understanding of contemporary landscapes. The West-Estonian archipelago provides an opportunity for such investigations because of its small size, landscape diversity, and well-defined economic activities. The contemporary landscapes of the islands reflect environmental changes resulting from centuries of human activity. This paper describes both natural and human factors in the change in landscape of small Estonian islands during the last centuries. During the period 1850–1940, human activity diversified the landscape structure. During World War II, with the establishment of Soviet rule, the islets were depopulated; their landscape became more uniform and lost their economic and ecological vitality. The re-establishment of private ownership of land and a market economy is predicted to result in positive changes in the landscape of the islets.     

多源专题数据在国家重点生态功能区生态环境状况评价中的应用

为了建立一套生态遥感快速监测方法,实现生态环境状况评价,以2015年广西40个国家重点生态功能区为例,以全国第一次地理国情普查、高分影像、地貌为基础数据,利用RPC模型及网络刺点进行影像纠正,使用空间分析等程序化处理方法进行代码转换和信息抽取,实现了广西国情普查成果转化,得到了2014年和2015年生态遥感数据,形成一套较为完整的生态遥感快速监测方法,最终得到2015年全区重点生态功能县生态环境状况指数, 40个重点生态功能县中有15个县生态环境质量状况等级为"优",25个为"良"。     

场地污染监测预警与决策一体化系统的设计与实现

通过分析我国相关场地污染现状和需求，设计了场地污染监测预警与决策一体化系统，利用物联网设备实时监测采集污染数据，并通过数据传输技术SignalR进行数据传输，再使用三维地理框架Cesium反映监测区域的污染情况，保证对污染处理响应的实时性和高效性，指出三维虚拟地理技术与大数据、物联网技术结合是系统的发展方向。
