Sustainable management of a coastal lagoonal system (Ria Formosa, Portugal): An ecological model for extensive aquaculture     

S. Gamito 《International Journal of Salt Lake Research》1997,6(2):145-173

The Ria Formosa lies in southern Portugal, extending for about 55 km. It is a true barrier island system, comprising mainland, backbarrier lagoons, inlet deltas, barrier islands, barrier platforms and shoreface. Of the Ria Formosa system, which covers a total area of 163 km², 20 km² are occupied by salinas and aquaculture ponds. The main water reservoir of thesalinas and the extensive aquaculture ponds behave like small lagoons where there are one or more openings to a tidal channel. These small lagoons have the advantage of being easy to study and to model. An ecological model was developed to estimate the potential production of the gilthead seabream in the Ria Formosa, in an extensive aquaculture regime. This model was based on information concerning chemical and physical factors (forcing functions) and secondary production estimates from four sites in the Ria Formosa with different environmental conditions, where extensive aquaculture is practised. Published information on optimal growth parameters of the gilthead was used to build the model, which was based on some assumptions concerning the detrimental effect of an excessive increase of salinity and other environmental factors both on gilthead growth (one state variable) and on prey production (divided into two state variables), which is essentially benthic macrofauna. Reservoirs with low water renewal undergo large environmental fluctuations. The growth of gilthead or other fish can be difficult, not only because of the adverse environmental conditions but also because of the low secondary production. The maximum yield of fish is predicted to be less than 6 g m⁻². In reservoirs where the water exchanges on almost every tide, the maximum yield of gilthead can be in excess of 22–25 g m⁻². Nevertheless, the high productivity of these sites in terms of secondary production of benthos and fish, as well as primary production, can lead to oxygen depletion during the night or at day-break. An attempt to further improve fish production by fertilisation or by adding food could provoke a rapid deterioration of the water quality and endanger all production.  相似文献

The Organization of Production in High Technology Industries: An Empirical Assessment*     

Audrey E. Clarke  Brian P. Holly 《The Professional geographer》1996,48(2):127-139

Recent attention given to the concept of vertical integration and disintegration of production processes has identified the existence of a continuum, with small, flexibly specialized producers at one end and large, mass production units at the other end. Firms along the continuum constantly strive for the optimum combination of economies of scale and scope. This paper attempts to identify the organizational characteristics of high technology firms in one industrial complex of the U.S. Manufacturing Belt. A principal components analysis is performed on a number of theoretically relevant variables for a sample of high technology establishments in Northeast Ohio. The results indicate that the region contains a variety of organizational forms ranging from isolated workshops to large, vertically integrated assembly plants. These findings conform to expectations derived from recent conceptualizations in the literature. Additional empirical research will further enhance understanding of the processes that shape the organization of production in territorial complexes.  相似文献   

乌鲁木齐河源冰川的消融强度函数     

叶佰生  陈克恭  施雅风 《冰川冻土》1996,(2)

通过对天山乌鲁木齐河源１号冰川各物质平衡观测断面近１０年的观测资料和相应的气象资料进行统计分析，得出１号冰川东、西支消融期各月的消融强度函数。统计结果表明，消融强度与气温的关系随着月份的不同而异，同时由于１号冰川东、西两支冰川的朝向差异导致这一关系也有差别  相似文献   

X2检验假设分布有效性的岩体工程应用     

陈剑平  王清  肖树芳  刘莹  黄亦群 《吉林大学学报(地球科学版)》1996,(3)

在工程地质问题中许多现象是不确定、且具有随机分布的特性，而这种随机分布特性往往可以采用某种形式的密度函数来描述。采用Ｘ２检验假设分布有效性是一个重要的方法，采用该法可以获得观测数据最佳拟合的概率模型，通过自编程序可以同时检验多种概率密度函数并选取最佳模型。本文将介绍这一方法，并通过一个实例加以说明。  相似文献

Generating fracture networks using iterated function systems     

U. Mohrlok  R. Liedl 《International Journal of Earth Sciences》1996,85(1):92-95

In order to model flow and transport in fractured rocks it is important to know the geometry of the fracture network. A stochastic approach is commonly used to generate a synthetic fracture network from the statistics measured at a natural fracture network. The approach presented herein is able to incorporate the structures found in a natural fracture network into the synthetic fracture network. These synthetic fracture networks are the images generated by Iterated Function Systems (IFS) as introduced by Barnsley (1988). The conditions these IFS have to fulfil to determine images resembling fracture networks and the effects of their parameters on the images are discussed. It is possible to define the parameters of the IFS in order to generate some properties of a fracture network. The image of an IFS consists of many single points and has to be suitably processed for further use.  相似文献
