A Preliminary Study of the Self-Directed Photography of Middle-Class,Homeless, and Mobility-Impaired Children*     

Stuart C. Aitken  Joan Wingate 《The Professional geographer》1993,45(1):65-72

Understanding the ways in which children with different life experiences come to terms with day-to-day contexts and constraints has become an important topic of social science research. This study applies the technique of auto-photography to the study of children-environment transactions. How children apprehend their environments is described through a leitmotif analysis and an interpretation of photographs taken by children from middle-class families, homeless children, and children whose mobility is impaired by cerebral palsy. We speculate upon the social and physical contexts of these children based upon the images that they selected to photograph. Although impressionistic, our findings suggest the importance of auto-photography as a method for uncovering children-environment transactions.  相似文献   

藏北高山嵩草草旬植被和多样性在沙漠化过程中的变化     

魏兴琥李森  杨萍董玉祥  张春来 《中国沙漠》2007,27(5):750-757

为确定沙漠化对高山嵩草草甸植被组成、结构和物种多样性的影响，了解高寒区草甸沙漠化的原因，选择西藏那曲安多县南部沙漠化严重区域为调查区，按照沙漠化的不同程度设置样地，系统调查了轻度、中度、重度和极重度沙化草甸的植被变化，结果表明：中度、重度和极重度沙化区的植被与轻度沙化草甸有显著的差异；在中度和重度沙化区，高寒草甸的建群种高山嵩草已被家畜不喜食或更具抗性的植物种所取代，而在极重度沙化的流动沙丘上无植被生长；从过牧的退化草甸到半流动、流动沙丘，植物种多样性呈显著的降低趋势。轻度沙化草甸物种数、个体密度和丰富度指数最多；中度沙化草甸的Shannon-Wiener指数和均匀度指数最大，而优势度指数最小；在沙化过程中，高寒草甸的植被盖度显著下降，地上生物量也在下降，虽然轻度、中度和重度沙化草地的地上生物量显著高于极重度沙化区，但前者之间却无显著差异。地下根系生物量也呈显著下降的趋势。过牧是造成高山嵩草草甸沙化的主要原因。  相似文献   

向海湿地自然保护区鸟类多样性评价方法的比较研究   总被引：1，自引：1，他引：1  

何春光  崔丽娟  盛连喜  赵俊  邹丽芳 《干旱区地理》2007,30(6):858-864

鸟类多样性是评价湿地生态环境质量极其敏感的指标。向海湿地自然保护区地处半干旱区,受气候和人为影响,生态环境变化极为剧烈,因此,寻求一种行之有效且简单易行的鸟类多样性评价手段,对于及时了解湿地生态环境质量的动态变化信息,提出湿地和鸟类多样性的管理和保护对策至关重要。稀疏标准化法是一种建立在物种-面积关系上的生物多样性评价方法,主要用于区域尺度上的生物多样性评估。运用改进的稀疏标准化程序,利用多年调查和收集的鸟类数据,来评价和分析向海自然保护区鸟类多样性及其变化,结合香农-威纳多样性指数和均匀度指数,分析了两种方法获取结果的相关性。评估结果表明:稀疏标准化法获取的鸟类多样性和均匀度信息与传统的香农-威纳多样性指数和Pielou均匀度指数间具有显著的相关关系,可以用于鸟类的多样性和均匀度评价,且具有科学、直观、运算简捷、快速等优势。  相似文献   

山东龙宝山岩体稀土元素特征及矿源研究     

夏庆霖  陈永清 《物探与化探》2002,26(2):110-112117

龙宝山岩体是燕山期多阶段岩浆活动形成的中偏碱性杂岩体,其稀土元素特征为:wΣREE为地壳丰度的2.5倍,wLREE/wHREE为地壳的近9倍,轻稀土强烈富集,δEu、δCe均呈弱负异常,各期侵入岩及含金石英脉的稀土元素分布型式基本相似,呈向右陡倾斜线,但石英脉中稀土总量更高、轻稀土更为富集。研究结果表明:岩浆和成矿物质最初可能均来源于上地幔的同一岩浆房,并在岩浆上侵过程中不同程度地同化混染了地壳物质。  相似文献   

Effects of fire, grazing, and the presence of shrubs on Chihuahuan desert grasslands     

Paul B. Drewa  Kris M. Havstad 《Journal of Arid Environments》2001,48(4):429

Responses of herbaceous and suffrutescent species to fire, grazing, and presence of Prosopis glandulosa were examined in a Chihuahuan desert grassland in south-central New Mexico. Treatments were assigned randomly to eight 12×8 m plots within each of two blocks. Following fires in June 1995, unfenced plots were exposed to livestock grazing over 4 years. Plots were established that either included or excluded P. glandulosa. Perennial grass cover, primarilyBouteloua eriopoda , decreased by 13% in burned plots but increased 5% in unburned areas. Conversely, perennial forb cover was 4% greater after fire. Perennial grass frequency decreased 30% more and perennial forb frequency increased 10% more following burning. Further, increases in evenness after fire resulted in a 225% increase in species diversity. Grazing also resulted in a decrease in perennial grass cover while frequency decreased 22% more in grazed than ungrazed plots. Only frequency and not cover of perennial forbs and annual grasses increased more following grazing. Presence of P. glandulosa had no differential effect on responses of non-shrub species. Fires were conducted during near drought conditions while grazing occurred during years of precipitation equivalent to the long-term average. Precipitation immediately following fire may be critical for recovery of B. eriopoda -dominated desert grasslands; relationships between fire and post-fire precipitation patterns require future investigation.  相似文献   

古昆虫植食的自然历史     

肖丽芳  林晓丹  任东 《地质学报》2022,96(5):1654-1679

昆虫植食是昆虫与植物相互作用关系中最重要的组成部分。探索地史时期陆地生态系统中昆虫植食行为的起源与演化是探究古环境重建及古气候变化的重要切入点，其结果将更好地揭示现生昆虫取食行为背后的生物学及生态学意义。本文梳理了昆虫植食的研究历史；阐述了植物化石上的生物损伤与非生物损伤的主要区别；介绍了昆虫植食研究的化石证据以及功能性取食组 损伤类型研究体系(Functional feeding group damage type, FFG DT)。昆虫植食多样性在地质历史时期的演化过程分为8个阶段：① 志留纪—泥盆纪(444~359 Ma)为昆虫植食的起源时期；② 石炭纪(359~299 Ma)为昆虫植食的扩张时期；③ 二叠纪(299~252 Ma)为昆虫植食的稳定时期；④ 三叠纪(252~201 Ma)晚期，昆虫植食再次多样化；⑤ 侏罗纪(201~145 Ma)昆虫植食程度进一步加强；⑥ 白垩纪(145~66 Ma)裸子植物逐渐为被子植物所替代，昆虫植食大幅度增加；白垩纪末期，昆虫植食水平下降；⑦ 古近纪(66~23 Ma)昆虫植食水平提高；⑧ 新近纪(23~26 Ma)昆虫植食与现代基本相似。影响昆虫植食的主要因素包括气候环境、昆虫和植被多样性、昆虫口器类型、植物群落组成和微生物等。目前，统一昆虫植食研究体系和方法、填补各历史阶段的缺失信息等问题在昆虫植食研究中亟待解决。  相似文献   

佛坪自然保护区植物群落物种多样性与海拔梯度的关系   总被引：35，自引：4，他引：31  

岳明  张林静  党高弟  辜天琪 《地理科学》2002,22(3):349-354

用多元统计分析方法研究了佛坪自然保护区植物群落多种性及群落各生长型多样性特征沿海拔梯度的变化。结果表明：1）植物群落的Shannon指数与Simpson指数及物种丰富度与海拔梯度均呈显著负相关关系;2）乔木层的物种多样性沿海拔梯度的变化则体现了“中国高度膨胀”的规律,即中等海拔高度上多样性高而低海拔和高海拔多样性较低;3）灌木层丰富度指数在1600-1700m之间有个很不明显的峰值,而其它4个指标沿海拔呈单调的下降趋势;4）草本层植物多样性呈先降后升的趋势,在中等海拔高度较低。  相似文献

Life in sandy deserts: the scorpion model     

Victor Fet  Gary A. Polis  W.David Sissom 《Journal of Arid Environments》1998,39(4):609-622

The biology, ecology, biogeography, phylogeny, and evolution of sand-dwelling scorpions are reviewed. We present general features of sand that form the ecological theatre on which psammophiles have evolved. Sand scorpions, compared to those that live off sand, are not very diverse in any one local habitat, although they are often relatively abundant. Worldwide, they are represented by 29 genera, 11 of which exist exclusively in sand. Endemic genera belong to non-related families, suggesting that psammophilic adaptations evolvedin situin different sand deserts of the world.  相似文献
