Multiple Residence and Cyclical Migration: A Life Course Perspective*   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

As a result of restrictive time-space bounds in viewing migration, surprisingly little is known about the tempos and rhythms of geographical mobility in America. We discuss limitations of the conventional definition of migration and develop a life course framework of multiple residence and cyclical migration. Results of an Arizona-based case study reveal that multiple residence is common and more diverse than the annual influx of elderly snowbirds. Coming to grips with multiple residence and recurrent mobility in the United States represents a fundamental challenge in population and migration studies.  相似文献

Atrazine Used as a Tracer of Induced Recharge     

Diana Duncan  Darryll T. Pederson  Timothy R. Shepherd  James D. Can 《Ground Water Monitoring & Remediation》1991,11(4):144-150

The city of Lincoln draws water from a well field along the banks of the Platte River in east-central Nebraska. We have been able to follow the infusion of atrazine into this well field under induced recharge. Samples of water from the river, several monitoring wells and a production well were analyzed by GC/MS and solid phase extraction and found to change in concentration over the range 0.1 and 5.0 ppb of atrazine through the spring, summer, and fall 1989. Increases in the concentration of atrazine relating to precipitation events in the Platte River Basin were observable in the well water samples and ultimately in Lincoln municipal tap water. Atrazine from the river was seen to move via induced recharge and into well field ground water and away from the river at an observable rate. The concentration of atrazine in the river is dependent upon time of year and precipitation in the river basin.  相似文献

Late Holocene history of Waldsea Lake,Saskatchewan, Canada     

William M. Last  Timothy H. Schweyen 《Quaternary Research》1985,24(2):219-234

The post-Hypsithermal history of Waldsea Lake, a saline meromictic lake located in south-central Saskatchewan, has been deduced from a study of the changes in physical, mineralogical, and paleobiological parameters in sediment cores from the basin. Six lithostratigraphic units and three palynological zones are identified in the most recent sediment. These units and zones indicate that a shallow hypersaline lake with extensive mudflats existed about 4000 yr B.P. In response to the subsequent trend toward a cooler and wetter climate, deeper water conditions ensued, and by about 3000 yr ago a relatively deep stratified lake occupied the Waldsea Basin. A short climatic reversal about 2500 yr B.P. again caused low-water and mudflat conditions, but by 2000 yr ago the lake had regained its higher levels. The past 2000 yr of Waldsea's history have been relatively uneventful, except for a minor lowering of the lake about 700 yr B.P.  相似文献   

¹⁴C content of ten meteorites measured by tandem accelerator mass spectrometry     

R.M. Brown  H.R. Andrews  G.C. Ball  N. Burn  Y. Imahori  J.C.D. Milton  E.L. Fireman 《Earth and Planetary Science Letters》1984,67(1):1-8

¹⁴C has been measured in three North American and seven Antarctic meteorites with the Chalk River MP tandem accelerator. In most cases cosmogenic¹⁴C, which is tightly bound, was separated from absorbed atmospheric radiocarbon by stepwise heating extractions. Terrestrial ages obtained by comparing cosmogenic¹⁴C in the meteorite to that in Bruderheim are (7.2 ± 0.6) × 10³ years for Yamato 7304, (11.6 ± 0.4) × 10³ years for Estacado, and range from (32.7 ± 0.5) × 10³ to (41.0 ± 0.8) × 10³ years for six meteorites recovered at Allan Hills and its vicinity. The present upper limit to age determination by the accelerator method varies from 50 × 10³ to 70 × 10³ years depending upon mass and carbon content of the sample. The natural limit caused by cosmic ray production of¹⁴C in silicate rocks at 2000 m elevation is estimated to be (55 ± 5) × 10³ years. “Weathering ages” were estimated for the Antarctic meteorites from the specific activity of loosely-bound CO₂ considered to be absorbed from the terrestrial atmosphere on weathering. The accelerator measurements are in accordance with previous low-level counting measurements but have higher precision and sensitivity.  相似文献   

Instrumental temperature records at two sites in Central Canada: 1768 to 1910     

Timothy F. Ball  Roger A. Kingsley 《Climatic change》1984,6(1):39-56

As a result of affiliation between the Hudson's Bay Company and the Royal Society a relatively large number of instrumental temperature records are available from York Factory and Churchill Factory on the southwest of Hudson Bay beginning in 1768. The nature of these records, details of the instruments and information about the observers are presented. The major difficulty with the records is that the number of observations and the time of observation varied considerably. Adjustment factors were calculated for all of the combinations using a modern record maintained at the Churchill airport. By combining the Hudson's Bay Company record with data recorded by members of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police after 1852, and up to 1910, a long and relatively continuous record of daily and monthly average temperatures has been created for Central Canada.  相似文献   

The nursery role of seagrass meadows in the upper and lower reaches of the Chesapeake Bay     

Kenneth L. Heck  Timothy A. Thoman 《Estuaries and Coasts》1984,7(1):70-92

A two-year trawling and gill-netting study of vegetated and unvegetated bottoms near Parson’s Island, Maryland and near the mouth of the York River, Virginia was carried out to assess the nursery function of submerged vegetation for populations of fishes and decapod crustaceans in the Chesapeake Bay. Results revealed that vegetated bottoms supported substantially larger numbers of decapods, but not fishes, than unvegetated substrates. The lower Bay grassbed was an important nursery area for juvenile blue crabs, although neither of the grassbeds functioned as a nursery for commercially or recreationally valuable fishes. Our results suggest that: (1) further decreases in lower Bay Seagrass biomass would result in reduced numbers of adult blue crabs, but should not substantially affect populations of valuable fish species; (2) additional decreases in Upper Bay submerged vegetation should not produce dramatic change in the population sizes of either adult blue crabs or fishes.  相似文献   

In-situ neutron flux,Cl production and groundwater evolution in crystalline rocks at Stripa, Sweden     

J.N. Andrews  J.-Ch. Fontes  J.-L. Michelot  D. Elmore 《Earth and Planetary Science Letters》1986,77(1)

The meteoric input of³⁶Cl due to cosmogenic or nuclear-weapon-produced³⁶Cl cannot contribute significantly to the³⁶Cl present in the saline groundwaters (up to 700 mg l⁻¹ Cl⁻) from the Stripa granite. The extent of in-situ production of³⁶Cl has been estimated on the basis of the neutron fluxes within the granite and its surrounding leptite. The³⁶Cl present in the groundwaters is attributed to either admixture of labelled Cl⁻ from the leptite with Cl⁻ from the granite or to the total derivation of groundwater chlorinity within the leptite followed by radiochemical ingrowth of³⁶Cl during subsequent groundwater residence within the granite. The chloride derived from the leptite may be either matrix chloride or chloride from an external source which has had a long residence time within the leptite. The implications of³⁶Cl in-situ production for the estimation of groundwater residence times and for the geochemical evolution of groundwater chlorinity are discussed.  相似文献
