Understanding suspended particulate matter (SPM) dynamics in coastal waters is crucial to assess changes in coastal sediment budgets and biogeochemical fluxes. SPM dynamics are subject to various physical and biological factors and processes such as, e.g. tidal currents and aggregation which can be enhanced by extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) that are produced by algae and bacteria. It is still unclear how the different factors and processes interact and together determine SPM dynamics. To unravel the interacting processes and factors, we propose a new distribution-based modeling approach. Based on the derivation of explicit equations for size distribution characteristics of SPM such as the average radius, we derived a model of reduced complexity characterized by low initialization and parameterization effort as well as low computational cost. The proposed 0D model includes the processes of aggregation and fragmentation due to shear, aggregation due to differential settling, deposition, resuspension and tidal exchange, and describes the evolution of the SPM concentration in the water column linked by the settling velocity to the change of the mass average radius of the aggregate distribution. A systematic parameter variation for critical bottom shear stress of erosion, the size of resuspended aggregates, the fractal dimension, the collision efficiency, and the aggregate strength has been performed and compared to observations in the back-barrier basin of Spiekeroog Island in the German Wadden Sea. This analysis confirms the hypothesis that in winter biological influences on SPM dynamics are smaller compared to summer. This is mainly reflected by a significant shift in the various parameters. We hence conclude that biological control mechanisms have a much more quantitative relevance for SPM dynamics than currently represented by state-of-the-art SPM transport models.  相似文献   

Stated preferences for size and bag limits of Alaska charter boat anglers     

《Marine Policy》2015

Over the last several years, significant regulatory changes related to Pacific halibut Hippoglossus stenolepis have occurred in the for-hire recreational charter boat fishing sector in Alaska. In addition to limited entry restrictions and adoption of a catch sharing plan that provides a formal means of determining allocation between the commercial and charter boat fishing sectors, more restrictive harvest regulations were placed on anglers fishing from charter boats. This article provides insights into how the value anglers place on charter boat fishing is affected by these regulations, principally bag and size limits. Such information is helpful in assessing the trade-offs in economic benefits associated with different regulatory tools used to manage angler harvest levels. Stated preference choice experiment data from a 2012 survey are analyzed using a panel rank-ordered mixed logit model to estimate the economic value, or willingness to pay (WTP), non-resident anglers place on saltwater charter boat fishing trips in Alaska and to assess how changes in characteristics of fishing trips, particularly harvest restrictions related to Pacific halibut, affect this value. The model specification accounts for a wide array of size and bag limit restrictions that have been recently implemented or are under consideration by Pacific halibut fishery managers. The results indicate that very strict harvest restrictions have the effect of driving WTP to zero, while allowing at least one (potentially) large fish to be caught is valuable to anglers. The results also suggest that WTP for fishing trips with bag limits that allow two or more fish to be harvested with no size restrictions on the first fish harvested are not statistically different from the value for trips for larger bag limits or for the case where all the fish in the limit can be any size. This suggests that fishery managers can restrict the size of the second fish in a two-fish bag limit and still maintain economic values for fishing trips.  相似文献   

基于轨迹偏移算法的居民就医时空特征与空间格局分析     

丁威  邬群勇 《地球信息科学学报》2021,23(6):979-991

居民就医时空特征与空间格局反映了医疗设施的服务能力与布局合理性。本文以厦门岛为例,采用出租车轨迹数据,探讨了居民就医的时空特征和空间格局。论文提出了基于道路中心线的研究单元划分方法;提出OD轨迹偏移算法,更精细地提取出三级医院的就医OD数据,改善传统的缓冲区分析法中精确度较低的问题;对居民就医行为进行时空特征分析;基于就医意向与K-means聚类算法分析了居民的就医空间格局。结果表明：① 相对于传统的缓冲区分析,使用OD轨迹偏移算法提取医院的就医OD数据时,不要求OD数据具有较高的定位精度,仅通过偏移OD点坐标即可更加准确与完整地提取就医OD数据,精度提高约30%以上,并适用于所有浮动车轨迹数据;② 居民就医高峰期在7时与14时,休息日日均就医人次为工作日的2倍,当就医出行距离大于1 km时,就医出行人次随着出行距离的增加不断减少,整体符合韦伯分布函数;③ 居民就医时首要选择中山医院、第一医院或中医院,就医选择具有显著的区域性差异,反映居民临近就医的习惯,厦门岛西南部区域医疗资源十分充足,居民首要选择的就医最大出行距离在4 km以内,而西北部与东南部区域的居民首要选择的就医出行距离多在10 km左右,医疗资源较为匮乏,亟待加强;④ 厦门岛三级医院的吸引力具有明显的层次性,居民的强就医意向 （P_ij>33%）的医院皆为中山医院、第一医院与中医院中的1所,这3所医院的服务范围基本包括整个厦门岛,对居民有着较强的吸引力,居民对其余6所医院的就医意向值在0~33%之间,服务范围基本为医院临近的一些区域,吸引力与服务能力相对较弱。研究结果不仅为挖掘居民就医时空特征提供方法参考,还为后续医疗设施资源空间配置优化提供决策支持。  相似文献   

Conflation and aggregation of spatial data improve predictive models for species with limited habitats: A case of the threatened yellow-billed cuckoo in Arizona,USA     

《Applied geography (Sevenoaks, England)》2014

Riparian vegetation provides important wildlife habitat in the southwestern United States, but limited distributions and spatial complexity often leads to inaccurate representation in maps used to guide conservation. We test the use of data conflation and aggregation on multiple vegetation/land-cover maps to improve the accuracy of habitat models for the threatened western yellow-billed cuckoo (Coccyzus americanus occidentalis). We used species observations (n = 479) from a state-wide survey to develop habitat models from 1) three vegetation/land-cover maps produced at different geographic scales ranging from state to national, and 2) new aggregate maps defined by the spatial agreement of cover types, which were defined as high (agreement = all data sets), moderate (agreement ≥ 2), and low (no agreement required). Model accuracies, predicted habitat locations, and total area of predicted habitat varied considerably, illustrating the effects of input data quality on habitat predictions and resulting potential impacts on conservation planning. Habitat models based on aggregated and conflated data were more accurate and had higher model sensitivity than original vegetation/land-cover, but this accuracy came at the cost of reduced geographic extent of predicted habitat. Using the highest performing models, we assessed cuckoo habitat preference and distribution in Arizona and found that major watersheds containing high-probably habitat are fragmented by a wide swath of low-probability habitat. Focus on riparian restoration in these areas could provide more breeding habitat for the threatened cuckoo, offset potential future habitat losses in adjacent watershed, and increase regional connectivity for other threatened vertebrates that also use riparian corridors.  相似文献

多尺度地图空间居民地语义相似度计算方法     

高晓蓉  闫浩文  禄小敏 《测绘学报》2022,51(1):95-103

地图综合的本质是一种空间相似变换,制图者在相似原则的指导下实施概括,读图者从包含相似性的地图中形成心象地图、重构现实世界。因此,多尺度地图空间中的相似关系研究非常重要。然而,由于相似的可计算性差,且其计算的目的在于揭示更深层次的信息,地图综合中相似关系尤其是语义相似关系的研究相对较少。针对这一问题,本文以语义功能区约束下的大比例尺街区式居民地合并（1∶1750至1∶4000）为例,基于匹配距离模型计算建筑物合并中的语义相似度,得到语义相似度在关键比例尺节点的值,并对结果进行分析、评价。试验表明,语义功能区约束下的建筑物合并符合读图者的地图认知需求,本文所述方法有助于地图更好地发挥信息传输载体的作用。  相似文献

城市网络关联格局影响因素的测度及其作用机理的解析是建立城市网络理论模型的关键环节。基于2017年中国电子信息100强企业网络视角构建城市网络,采用指数随机图模型定量测度了中国城市网络的影响因素,解析了城市网络生长发育的微观过程,并探索性的提出了理解中国城市网络发育机理的概念框架。研究发现：偏好依附效应和接收者（GDP）效应构成了中国城市网络中心性格局的微观基础,中国城市网络生长发育表现为择优选择的地理过程;互惠性链接深刻影响着城市间的关系格局,网络闭合机制逐步成为城市间链接关系的重要影响因素;空间距离对基于电子信息企业网络的城市网络约束作用并不明显,城市网络表现出在“流动空间”中生长发育的特征。  相似文献   

Estimation of snow ablation under a dust layer covering a wide range of albedo     

Sunil Adhikary  Yasushi Yamaguchi  Katsuro Ogawa 《水文研究》2002,16(14):2853-2865

Ablation processes of snow under a thin dust cover are complicated compared with those under a thick cover, mainly owing to the effects of aggregation (redistribution) of dust particles on the conditions of surface melting. Aggregation of dust particles causes the snow surface to brighten after the initial dust configuration, thus affecting the relationship between initial dust concentration and surface albedo. In order to estimate snow ablation rate under a thin dust cover, we used a composite energy balance model in which the surface albedo is taken as a measured input variable. The estimated results of snow ablation agreed reasonably well with the observation, considering the measurement errors inherited in the snow depressions. Comparison of the two cases, that is, one considering the aggregation of dust particles (observation: albedo variable) and the other without aggregation (assumption: albedo constant), showed that the ablation rates were noticeably lower on the former case. This suggests that the aggregation of dust particles induces a reduction of snow ablation. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献
