用回转半径法研究城市分形特征时,中心点位置的选择至关重要。以反映城市基础设施情况的兴趣点(point of interest,POI)作为基础数据,分析中心点位置对标度区识别的影响。将POI几何中心、重心、密度中心、中心城区几何中心和重心5种统计中心作为待选中心,给出辐射范围、核心密度与分形维数、中心漂移度等标度区相关指标,提出判断占优标度区的POI数量最大化原则。通过统计中心与地标中心标度区对比,确定城市分形中心和占优标度区。省会城市及直辖市标度区分析结果显示:统计中心各有优劣,占优中心总体上更倾向于POI几何中心和密度中心,地标中心有时优于统计中心;密度中心对应的占优标度区半径维数较低,若半径维数太低则容易陷入局部密度中心;中心漂移度指标表明可能存在更好的分形中心选择方案。  相似文献

基于三维计盒法的城市空间形态分维计算和分析   总被引:3,自引:1,他引:2  
将城市形态分形维数的二维盒维数方法扩展到三维空间,提出了一种三维盒维数计算方法;并且针对以往城市分形研究中人工判定无尺度区不精确的问题,借鉴了二阶导数的方法进行分形无尺度区的自动识别;以扬州市中心城区2003年与2012年两期数据为例,详细介绍了城市三维空间形态分维计盒法的计算过程。实验结果显示,通过二阶导数方法能够有效的自动识别无尺度区;2003年与2012年数据无尺度区线性拟合确定系数R2均在0.996以上,扬州市三维空间形态具有明确的分形特征;2012年较2003年三维分维值的增加表明扬州市城市三维空间利用总体上趋于有效与紧凑。  相似文献

基于分形的中国大陆海岸线尺度效应研究   总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9  
以DEM为基础,并参照卫星影像,提取了不同比例尺下中国大陆海岸线,从海岸地质构造特征和海岸类型角度出发,对我国大陆海岸线整体、沉降隆起岸段和不同类型海岸尺度效应进行分析,并探讨了引起尺度效应差异的地理环境因素。研究表明:(1) 中国大陆海岸线整体分形维数为1.195,岸线长度受测量尺度影响显著,定量刻画海岸线长度不可忽略相应测量尺度;(2)岸线分形受地质构造特征和水动力因素控制明显,隆起段和沉降段海岸线分形维数有着显著差异:辽东半岛隆起段分形维数为1.153,辽河-华北平原沉降段分形维数为1.116,山东半岛隆起段分形维数为1.148,苏北-杭州湾沉降段分形维数为1.177,浙东-桂南隆起段分形维数则达1.239;(3) 海岸线尺度效应同时随海岸类型不同有着显著差异,位于冀北平原和滦河三角洲平原岸段的砂质岸线分形维数为1.109;位于苏北平原的淤泥质岸线分维数为1.056,位于闽东南山地丘陵的基岩海岸线分形维数达1.293。海岸线是陆、海和气界面的交汇线,其分形性质的定量刻画,可为多尺度研究海气、陆气和海陆相互作用提供科学基础。  相似文献

锡林郭勒草地表层土壤粒度分形特征及其与风蚀的关系   总被引:3,自引:1,他引:2  
在锡林郭勒草地以400 m为间距均匀布设160个样点,采集各点表层0~1 cm土样,测定土壤机械组成,计算土壤粒度分形维数,分析锡林郭勒草地景观尺度土壤粒度分形特征及其与风蚀的关系。结果表明:(1)分形维数越小,土壤质地越粗,分形维数与小于0.05 mm细颗粒含量显著正相关,与大于0.05 mm粗颗粒含量显著负相关;(2)分形维数随土地利用状况的变化趋势为禁牧>轻牧>中牧>重牧>耕地。在草地条件下,土壤容重值越大,分形维数越小;在耕地条件下,二者无显著相关关系;(3)分形维数越大,风蚀危险性越低,分形维数越小,风蚀危险性越高。  相似文献

以分形理论为基础,借助GIS技术,分别测算了河南省全域公路交通网络的长度-半径维数、分枝维数以及其所辖18个省辖市各等级公路的相似维数及权维值.研究表明:河南省公路交通网络具有分形特征,长度-半径维数与分枝维数存在一定差异;各地市权维值存在较大差异,表明河南省公路交通网络分布不均衡,差异较大,中原城市群和黄淮的部分地区公路交通较好,而豫北、豫西、豫西南及豫东南部分地区交通覆盖度较差.为进一步探讨各地市公路建设规模和经济发展之间的协调关系,通过公路规模与经济产出的分形模型测算出18个省辖市的分维值,发现郑州等10个城市经济发展超前于公路规模、开封等3个城市基本一致、平顶山等5个城市经济发展滞后于公路建设规模.  相似文献

干旱沙区植被恢复过程中土壤颗粒分形特征   总被引:47,自引:0,他引:47  
统计分析了干旱沙漠地区植被恢复过程中土壤颗粒分形特征及其与土壤沙粒(>0.05mm)、粉粒(0.05~0.002mm)和粘粒(<0.002mm)含量和土壤养分状况间的关系。结果表明:土壤颗粒分形维数随恢复时间延长有增大的趋势,土壤颗粒分形维数大小与土壤质地的细粒化有一致的变化趋势。0.05mm粒径成为土壤各粒径的分界值--即土壤分形维数的临界粒径,大于这一粒径颗粒含量越高,土壤分形维数越小;而小于这一粒径的颗粒含量越高,分形维数越大。土壤各养分状况均与土壤颗粒分形维数有极显著的线性正相关关系(p<0.0001),表明了土壤颗粒分形维数能客观地反映土壤肥力特征。在干旱沙漠地区,伴随着植被恢复和流沙固定,土壤颗粒分形维数可作为一个评价土壤演变程度的综合定量指标。  相似文献

南京市交通网络的分形特征   总被引:6,自引:2,他引:4  
柏春广  蔡先华 《地理研究》2008,27(6):1419-1426
以分形理论为基础,借助于地理信息系统软件,对南京市区交通网络进行了长度-半径维数和分枝维数的测算,结果表明南京市区的交通网络具有分形特征,长度-半径维数为1.574,而分枝维数为1.3934,两者之间存在一定差异。通过进一步对主城区各行政区交通网络的盒子维数的测算,揭示出各行政区的交通网络也具有分形特征,分维值介于1.3568与1.4991之间,其大小与经济发展状况并没有很好的对应关系。如何以经济状况为基础数据指导城市各行政区的交通发展,以及两者之间是否在其他区域尺度上存在相关关系等,仍是需要有更多研究基础才能深入探讨的问题。  相似文献

分形在数字水系累计汇水量阈值确定中的应用研究   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
基于DEM提取水系时,累计汇水量阈值的确定是关键。该文首先论述如何在GIS支持下,用计盒维数法计算分形维数;然后计算不同累计汇水量阈值条件下提取的水系的分形维数,进而分析阈值、水系的形态特征及其分形维数三者间的关系;最后通过比较实际河流与不同阈值下水系的分形维数,确定合适的阈值。实验表明,基于GIS计算分形维数的方法具有可操作性与高效性。同时,用分形维数量化阈值对水系提取的影响,并以实际河流的分形维数为参考,避免了阈值确定的随意性。  相似文献

2015年12月召开的中央城市工作会议提出“在中西部地区培育发展一批城市群、区域性中心城市,让中西部地区广大群众在家门口也能分享城镇化成果”。黄土高原是我国水土流失最严重和生态环境最敏感的地区之一,地貌水系特征对其城镇化建设尤为重要。从黄土高原独特的分形地貌入手,以无定河流域为研究对象,探究城乡居民点与地貌水系的耦合关系。分形维数上,通过盒维数法测算出19处小流域沟道水系分形维数,并分析城乡居民点的数量、等级与沟道分形维数的内在联系。空间上,采取缓冲区分析居民点与沟道水系的临近关系并探究水系与居民点等级对应特征。研究发现:在数理分析上,(1)各小流域的分形维数越高,单位面积的居民点数量越多;沟道分形维数一定时,高等级居民点的出现会降低沟道内单位面积低级别居民点数量。(2)河谷沟道的分形维数达到1.223是沟道内出现县城的必要而不充分条件。在空间分析上,(3)城乡居民点分布与分形沟道水系相临近,并且居民点等级分布规律具有自相似性、层级迭代性。基于以上特征探索具有地域特色的镇村体系布局模式,以期为该地区城镇建设提供理论依据。  相似文献

砒砂岩区地貌形态三维分形特征量化及空间变异   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
张传才  秦奋  王海鹰  李宁  李阳 《地理科学》2016,36(1):142-148
针对现有地貌形态三维分形模型结构存在的不足,构建一个新的地貌形态三维分形维数测算模型。基于该模型对砒砂岩区274个小流域的地貌形态三维分形维数进行计算并分析其空间变异规律。研究表明:① 基于该模型计算的分形维数能更准确地反映地貌形态复杂度信息;② 砒砂岩区小流域地貌形态三维分形维数介于1.683 6~1.948 6之间;③ 地貌形态三维分形维数整体上覆土砒砂岩区(均值为1.765 9)<裸露砒砂岩强度侵蚀区(均值为1.785 4)和剧烈侵蚀区(均值为1.774 8)<覆沙砒砂岩区(均值为1.796 6)。由于地表覆盖物、砒砂岩裸露程度和土壤侵蚀机理的差异而形成的不同地貌特征是该区地貌形态分形特征空间变异的主要原因。  相似文献

Desertification is a global phenomenon that affects about two billion people. It occurs in arid zones where the annual precipitation is below 400 mm, partic- ularly in the marginal areas of the world's largest deserts. It is a result of water and wind erosion, over- grazing, global warm-ing, improper soil cultivation, and increased pressure ot population growth, and it causes degradation of soil and natural and agricultural vegetation. The direct result is less food for people and livestock, which influences pop- ulation and animal husbandry fluctuations. Despite ef- forts to combat and reduce desertification, the affected areas are annually increasing.  相似文献
