'In the shadow of hierarchy': meta-governance, policy reform and urban regeneration in the West Midlands   总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3  

Mark Whitehead 《Area》2003,35(1):6-14

This paper explores the relationship between political hierarchy and the complex webs of political organization associated with urban governance. Deploying the concept of meta-governance and a study of urban policy reform in the West Midlands region of England, this paper claims that state and governmental hierarchies continue to have a crucial role in coordinating the activities of governance regimes in the UK. This paper concludes by considering the effects of hierarchical power on the systems of political participation and representation that are associated with urban governance.  相似文献   

Regional characteristics of dust events in China     

WANG Shigong  WANG Jinyan  ZHOU Zijiang  SHANG Kezheng  YANG Debao  ZHAO Zongsuo 《地理学报》2003,13(1):35-44

The regional characteristics of dust events in China has been mainly studied by using the data of dust storm, wind-blown sand and floating dust from 338 observation stations through China from 1954 to 2000. The results of this study are as follows: (1) In China, there are two high frequent areas of dust events, one is located in the area of Minfeng and Hotan in the South Xinjiang Basin, the other is situated in the area of Minqin and Jilantai in the Hexi Region. Furthermore, the spatial distributions of the various types of dust events are different. The dust storms mainly occur in the arid and semiarid areas covering the deserts and the areas undergoing desertification in northern China. Wind-blown sand and floating-dust not only occur in the areas where dust storms occur, but also extend to the neighboring areas. The range of wind-blown sand extends northeastward and southeastward, but floating-dust mainly extends southeastward to the low-latitude region such as the East China Plain and the area of the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. Compared with wind-blown sand, the floating-dust seldom occurs in the high latitude areas such as North Xinjiang and Northeast China. (2) The affected areas of dust storms can be divided into seven sub-regions, that is, North Xinjiang Region, South Xinjiang Region, Hexi Region, Qaidam Basin Region, Hetao Region, Northeastern China Region and Qinghai-Xizang (Tibet) Region. The area of the most frequent occurrence of dust storms and floating-dust is in South Xinjiang Region, and of wind-blown sand in the Hexi Region. In general, the frequency of dust events in all the seven regions shows a decreasing tendency from 1954 to 2000, but there are certain differences between various dust events in different regions. The maximum interannual change and variance of dust events during this time happened in South Xinjiang Region and Hexi Region. The dust events generally occur most frequently in April in most parts of China. The spring occurred days of dust events occupied 60-70% of the whole year in Hetao Region and Northeastern China Region. However, in South Xinjiang Region and North Xinjiang Region, which was less affected by monsoon climate, dust events may occur at any time of the year, less than 50% of the events in this region occur during spring. In the remaining three regions 50-60% of the dust events occur in spring of a year.  相似文献   

A FOOD GEOGRAPHY OF THE GREAT PLAINS     

BARBARA G. SHORTRIDGE 《Geographical review》2003,93(4):507-529

ABSTRACT. This article explores the regional identity of the Great Plains through its foodways using 744 responses from a mailed survey that asked participants to plan a representative menu for their locale. The strongest association is with beef—not surprising in an area known for cattle ranching. Other commonalities include potatoes, beans, and corn. Differentiation within the region is marked by preparation methods for beef as well as emphases on cornbread and peach cobbler in the south, rhubarb pie in the north, tortillas and sopapillas in the southwest, and pickles in two separate clusterings.  相似文献   

大港油田盐山-庆云地区油气运移富集规律的研究     

何政才  姚锦其  董树政  王国华 《矿产与地质》2003,17(1):49-53

盐山-庆云地区具多凸多凹、地质条件复杂、多向供油（气）的特点。油气化探异常发育不平衡，具有成带分布、局部富集的特征。西部主要的轻烃（CH4）异常强，东部则是重烃（C2H6、C3H8）异常最发育，由西向东轻烃逐渐下降，重烃不断增加，非烃指标（Hg、△C）异常与重烃异常基本相拟，Ks、Fe^2 异常规律不明显。根据烃类指标的分带性，轻、重烃异常规律和富集特征划分为气显示带，油显示带和油气显示带。中部地区的即油气显示带是油气最有远景的地段。  相似文献   

我国部分市郊农田的重金属污染与防治途径   总被引：12，自引：2，他引：12

分析了我国部分主要城市农田土壤及农作物重金属污染状况，以了解土壤中与农作物中重金属污染物间的相互关系、变化趋势及造成污染的影响因素。结果表明，我国各大城市的农田土壤及农作物都存在不同程度的重金属污染，北方地区的土壤及农作物受重金属污染程度普遍高于南方。重金属在农作物与土壤中的含量一般呈正相关关系，受多种因素影响。对于已污染的土壤，可采用农业工程措施、生物修复法和施用改良剂等予以治理。  相似文献   

铅锌矿山开发导致的重金属在环境介质中的积累   总被引：35，自引：4，他引：35

以连续提取法和相关性分析研究了土法冶炼锌、铅锌和矿山开采导致的重金属在废渣及环境介质土壤、溪流沉积物中的积累，并分析了其环境危害性。结果显示，贵州赫章土法炼锌导致的重金属Pb、Zn、Cd在环境介质中的积累相当高。水城杉树林铅锌矿山开采引起的重金属积累则相对较低，但也明显高于背景值；土壤和沉积物中的铁矿物对重金属有强烈的固定作用。除残渣态外，Pb、Zn在土壤、炼锌废渣中主要呈铁锰氧化物结合态，沉积物中则为碳酸盐结合态。可交换态Pb、Zn含量变异较大，但在炼锌废渣、土壤中含量明显高于河流沉积物，暗示铅锌矿开发对土壤环境的潜在危害更大。  相似文献

广东大亚湾底质重金属分布特征与环境质量评价   总被引：13，自引：0，他引：13       下载免费PDF全文

李学杰 《中国地质》2003,30(4):429-435

大亚湾是粤东的大型海湾，毗邻深港，其环境质量现状及发展趋势颇受关注。对大亚湾海域45个表层站位、1口浅钻及2个柱状样重金属元素Hg、As、Cd、Cu、Pb、Cr、Zn进行分析，并对底质环境质量进行定量评价。其结果：①大亚湾海域Hg、As、Cu的污染指数Pi值均小于1．0，超标率为0，表明全区未受这些因子污染；②Cd、Zn、Pb、Cr的污染指数Pi值部分大于1．0，表明受到这些因子不同程度的污染，其中Pb的超标率最高，达93．3％，污染指数Pi值为0．83～2．25，为良好—中等污染，总体为轻微污染；Zn的超标率为76．9％，pf值为0．25～2．63，变化较大，总体为轻微污染；Cd的超标率为60．0％，Pi值为0．50～1．78，良好—轻微污染；Cr的超标率为17．8％，Pi值为0，49～1．90，良好—轻微污染；③综合污染指数为1．08～2．21，平均1．37，表明本区均不同程度地受重金属污染，总体属轻微污染，其中范和港污染最为严重，SQI值多在1．5以上，其次为中央列岛附近海域。湾口和澳头—霞涌近岸海域污染较轻。从钻孔及柱状样的重金属含量分布来看，在表层没有明显增多的趋势。  相似文献

针对高寒山区1：25万区调野外工作条件差、时间短，植被覆盖度低、遥感影像质量好的特点，提出了遥感影像解释、遥感标志剖面解译新概念，以及不同工作区用不同大法的新思路。研究、实践认为，利用遥感技术开展高寒山区区域地质调查能减少野外工作量，缩短周期，节约经费，提高调查质量和精度。  相似文献
