The Geography of Reported Domestic Violence in Brisbane: A social justice perspective     

Lawrence Di Bartolo 《The Australian geographer》2001,32(3):321-341

Police call data and court data are used to map the incidence of reported domestic violence in Brisbane. These data are correlated with low family income, unemployment and a measure of multiple disadvantage (an Index of Relative Socio-Economic Disadvantage) for each Statistical Local Area (suburb) in Brisbane. Only the Index of Relative Socio-Economic Disadvantage is a statistically significant predictor of reported domestic violence. The finding of a significantly higher incidence of reported domestic violence among relatively worse-off families is investigated within a social justice context. A measure of multiple relative disadvantage is shown to better reflect the negative impacts of structural inequalities on families in explaining the reported occurrence of domestic violence .  相似文献   

同位素技术在某核废处置场区水文地质条件研究中的应用     

萧丰  王志明 《铀矿地质》1995,11(4):244-253

本文通过对研究区各类地下水化学成分、水中氢、氧稳定同位素及放射性同位素的研究，区分出浅层地下水（孔隙水）和基岩风化裂隙水。确定了地下水的补给区为排牙山区；地表水、地下水迳流的主要方向为ＳＥ向，同时存在地下水侧向迁移，并以泉的形式补给浅层水和地表水。通过氚的衰变计算及与香港观测站的资料对比，确定了区内地下水的相对年龄，并将其分为３个年龄组：（１）迳流时间最短的地下水，具近期大气降水的氚浓度；（２）相对年龄为２０年左右的浅层地下水；（３）相对年龄大于３０年的低氚水。  相似文献

Entropy inference of recurrence models for variability analysis of extreme events     

A.?Solana-OrtegaEmail author  V.?Solana 《Stochastic Environmental Research and Risk Assessment (SERRA)》2004,18(3):167-187

A complete methodology is developed to analyze the recurrence of extreme environmental events and its variability as time without further events elapses. Firstly we investigate the conditioned recurrence inference problem consisting in the selection of a probability model for the interarrival time between extreme events, given a contexto-factual evidence conditioned by the time elapsed since the last of such events. Two ways to include this condition can be considered, which yield alternative conditioned evidences and convert the former problem into two distinct ones, thus giving rise to a possible consistency violation. These problems are formalized within the logical probability framework, in a plausible logic language that allows a suitable expression of the available observational data. They are solved using the REF relative entropy method with fractile constraints, and their solutions are compared at all inference levels. It is concluded that the two conditioning ways are not really mutually exclusive and that a unique global solution to the conditioned inference can be obtained using this procedure. An example illustrates an application of the methodology to the variability analysis of the recurrence time between historical inundations of the Guadalquivir river in Spain, as time elapses with no new floods.Acknowledgments.

Precise GRACE baseline determination using GPS   总被引：13，自引：1，他引：13  

Remco Kroes  Oliver Montenbruck  William Bertiger  Pieter Visser 《GPS Solutions》2005,9(1):21-31

Precision relative navigation is an essential aspect of spacecraft formation flying missions, both from an operational and a scientific point of view. When using GPS as a relative distance sensor, dual-frequency receivers are required for high accuracy at large inter-satellite separations. This allows for a correction of the relative ionospheric path delay and enables double difference integer ambiguity resolution. Although kinematic relative positioning techniques demonstrate promising results for hardware-in-the-loop simulations, they were found to lack an adequate robustness in real-world applications. To overcome this limitation, an extended Kalman Filter modeling the relative spacecraft dynamics has been developed. The filter processes single difference GPS pseudorange and carrier phase observations to estimate the relative position and velocity along with empirical accelerations and carrier phase ambiguities. In parallel, double difference carrier phase ambiguities are resolved on both frequencies using the least square ambiguity decorrelation adjustment (LAMBDA) method in order to fully exploit the inherent measurement accuracy. The combination of reduced dynamic filtering with the LAMBDA method results in smooth relative position estimates as well as fast and reliable ambiguity resolution. The proposed method has been validated with data from the gravity recovery and climate experiment (GRACE) mission. For an 11-day data arc, the resulting solution matches the GRACE K-Band Ranging System measurements with an accuracy of 1 mm, whereby 83% of the double difference ambiguities are resolved.  相似文献   

The influence of intense rainfall on the activity of large-scale crystalline schist landslides in Shikoku Island, Japan   总被引：4，自引：3，他引：4

Many large landslides in the crystalline schist region of Shikoku Island, Japan, are susceptible to intense rainfall. Through the use of on-site monitoring systems, the activity of landslides and their meteorological triggers can be assessed. Continuous high-intensity rainfall was found to play a key role in provoking landslide movement. This paper investigates the influence of intense rainfall on the activity of crystalline schist landslides by examining rainfall and displacement of four typical landslides. By defining and calculating the effective rainfall and the relative landslide displacement, the relationship between intense rainfall and rainfall-induced landslide movement was analysed. Results indicate that the intense rainfall-induced landslide movement can be correlated with the effective rainfall. From these results, two rainfall thresholds were identified for the landslide risk management of Shikoku Island.  相似文献
