A review of algebraic constraints in terrestrial reference frame datum definition     

P. Sillard  C. Boucher 《Journal of Geodesy》2001,75(2-3):63-73

 Station coordinates are combined with velocities estimated by space geodesy techniques to produce the International Terrestrial Reference System. The input is sets of coordinates and velocities calculated by International Earth Rotation Service analysis centers using space geodesy techniques. The working reference system of individual analysis centers is generally conventionally defined. However, the implications of such processing can have an effect on the resulting combined set. The problem of datum definition as a function of coordinate combinations is reviewed. In particular, the problem of minimum constraints is clearly emphasized and the reference system effect is defined. The goal is to build a process that could be used generally to remove uncertainties in the underlying coordinate system without disturbing the underlying information with additional unnecessary information.

Solution and econometric estimation of spatial dynamic models in continuous space and continuous time     

Kieran P. Donaghy 《Journal of Geographical Systems》2001,3(3):257-270

 This paper presents and demonstrates a general approach to solving spatial dynamic models in continuous space and continuous time that characterize the behaviour of intertemporally and interspatially optimizing agents and estimating from discrete data the parameters of such models. The approach involves the use of a projection method to solve the models and a quasi-Newton algorithm to update quasi-FIML parameter estimates.

The development of computer networks: First results from a microeconomic model     

Gunther Maier  Alexander Kaufmann 《Journal of Geographical Systems》2001,3(2):155-166

 Computer networks like the Internet are gaining importance in social and economic life. The accelerating pace of the adoption of network technologies for business purposes is a rather recent phenomenon. Many applications are still in the early, sometimes even experimental, phase. Nevertheless, it seems to be certain that networks will change the socioeconomic structures we know today. This is the background for our special interest in the development of networks, in the role of spatial factors influencing the formation of networks, and consequences of networks on spatial structures, and in the role of externalities. This paper discusses a simple economic model – based on a microeconomic calculus – that incorporates the main factors that generate the growth of computer networks. The paper provides analytic results about the generation of computer networks. The paper discusses (1) under what conditions economic factors will initiate the process of network formation, (2) the relationship between individual and social evaluation, and (3) the efficiency of a network that is generated based on economic mechanisms.

水平切变线上涡层不稳定理论   总被引：25，自引：4，他引：25  

高守亭  周玉淑 《气象学报》2001,59(4):393-404

文中打破了传统的 Kelvin- Helmholtz研究切变不稳定的观点 ,考虑了强涡度切变存在时切变线已构成了一个涡层 ,这时切变线的不稳定问题就变为涡层的不稳定问题。同时考虑由涡层所产生的诱导速度 ,从理论上得到了水平切变线上涡层不稳定必要条件的判据 ,即必须满足 (1 - Rv Rid) >0 ,且有 U(y,t) >U(A(t) )与之相配合。这表明环境场的配置制约着切变线上扰动的发展 ,这种中尺度扰动同环境场存在着相互作用。文中还用具体个例对如何计算不稳定必要条件做了解释和说明。  相似文献   

一次新疆强切变线天气的分析     

吕新生  王旭 《沙漠与绿洲气象(新疆气象)》2001,24(1):5-7

对1998年3月新疆强切变线天气的分析表明，蒙古阻塞高压对切变线形成起决定性作用，切变线是一个冷性结构的风辐合带，白天较弱、夜晚较强。在切变线上维持一个纬向的次级环流，该次级环流加强了切变线东部的降水。水汽在对流层中上层的切变线附近辐合，大降水落区与切变线相一致。  相似文献

Investigating the ancient Martian magnetic field using microwaves   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

John Shaw  Mimi J. Hill  Steven J. Openshaw 《Earth and Planetary Science Letters》2001,190(3-4):103-109

The new microwave palaeointensity technique has been used to investigate samples from the Martian meteorite Nakhla. This technique is a promising new way to obtain absolute palaeointensity information regarding the ancient Martian magnetic field as recorded by the Martian meteorites. Assuming that a part of the magnetic remanence is of thermal origin and originating on Mars the two samples studied yield estimates of 4 μT for the Martian magnetic field at 1.35 Ga.  相似文献   

Latent heat effects of the major mantle phase transitions on low-angle subduction     

Jeroen van Hunen  Arie P van den Berg  Nico J Vlaar 《Earth and Planetary Science Letters》2001,190(3-4):125-135

Very low to zero shallow dip angles are observed at several moderately young subduction zones with an active trenchward moving overriding plate. We have investigated the effects of latent heat for this situation, where mantle material is pushed through the major mantle phase transitions during shallow low-angle subduction below the overriding plate. The significance of the buoyancy forces, arising from the latent heat effects, on the dynamics of the shallowly subducting slab is examined by numerical modeling. When a 32-Ma-old slab is overridden with 2.5 cm/yr by a continent, flat subduction occurs with a 4–5 cm/yr convergence rate. When latent heat is included in the model, forced downwellings cause a thermal anomaly and consequently thermal and phase buoyancy forces. Under these circumstances, the flat slab segment subducts horizontally about 350 km further and for about 11 Ma longer than in the case without latent heat, before it breaks through the 400-km phase transition. The style of subduction strongly depends on the mantle rheology: increasing the mantle viscosity by one order of magnitude can change the style of subduction from steep to shallow. Similarly, an overriding velocity of less than 1 cm/yr leads to steep subduction, which gradually changes to flat subduction when increasing the overriding velocity. However, these model parameters do not change the aforementioned effect of the latent heat, provided that low-angle subduction occurs. In all models latent heat resulted in a substantial increase of the flat slab length by 300–400 km. Varying the olivine–spinel transition Clapeyron slope γ from 1 to 6 MPa/K reveals a roughly linear relation between γ and the horizontal length of the slab. Based on these results, we conclude that buoyancy forces due to latent heat of phase transitions play an important role in low-angle subduction below an overriding plate.  相似文献
