THE MAGNETISM OF MIAMI: SEGMENTED PATHS IN CUBAN MIGRATION*

ABSTRACT. Miami is the primate city in a system of urban settlements that make up a Cuban ethnic archipelago in the United States. The city is also a national magnet, attracting Cuban migrants from metropolitan regions across the archipelago. Four large secondary cores of Cubans outside Florida serve as major “feeders” to the Miami enclave: northern New Jersey, New York City, Los Angeles, and Chicago. Currents of migration to Miami are especially strong among older, foreign-born, and disadvantaged Cubans, an indication of segmented paths in Cuban assimilation. Although concentration in Metropolitan Miami has been the Cuban story over the past three decades, processes of deconcentration now may well be under way.     

南北半球亚极光区极化流分布特征的统计学研究

利用DMSP卫星粒子数据,对南北半球20 000多个亚极光区极化流(SAPS)事件进行统计学分析,重点研究SAPS的发生率及其发生位置隧季节和世界时的分布,研究表明:(1)SAPS的发生率有明显的季节和世界时依赖性,主要发生在春秋季节,显示出较强的地磁活动依赖性;(2)SAPS在冬至也较多发生,可能与亚暴过程有关;(3...     

POPULATIONS,SAMPLES AND STATISTICAL INFERENCE IN GEOGRAPHY

This paper questions the validity and relevance of the application of procedures of classical statistical inference to population data in geography. Arguments for such procedures include the notions of temporal and spatial samples, measurement error, modifiable areal units, data vetting and stochastic processes. It is concluded that such arguments cannot be justified in terms of statistical theory.

USING SPATIAL SEGREGATION MEASURES IN GIS AND STATISTICAL MODELING PACKAGES

It is generally known that many traditional measures of segregation cannot distinguish different spatial population patterns. Several spatial measures of segregation have been proposed to overcome this problem, but these spatial measures are difficult to use because they require explicit spatial information and complex computation. This paper shows that Geographic Information Systems (GIS) can provide the spatial information required by these indices and that statistical packages can offer the complex computation functions needed to calculate the indices. We use ARC/INFO as the GIS package and S-Plus as the statistical package to demonstrate how spatial segregation indices can be calculated by combining the capabilities of these two types of systems.     

云南滇中地区强对流雷达回波统计分析

为了更好地开展强对流监测、预警和开展人工防雹作业指挥工作,通过对2006年至2012年昆明多普勒雷达观测的1148幅回波和234个降雹过程进行了收集和整理,从人工防雹作业指挥判别雹云的角度,对雷达回波的强度、高度和VIL等要素进行了统计分析。统计分析表明,云南滇中地区强对流发展强度强、高度高;虽然仅通过VIL跃升值难以判别强对流云体能否产生降雹,但冰雹云发展存在明显的VIL跃升,进而得出了强对流云体的VIL跃升值(前后两回波的VIL差值)是否超过35kg/m^2,可以作为强对流云体能否产生降雹的指标这一结论。     

A STATISTICAL ANALYSIS OF THE FREEZE HAZARD IN NEW YORK STATE

Thirty years of data are examined for the last spring freeze and first autumn freeze at freeze thresholds of 0°C, -2.2°C, and -4.4°C. Four statistical conclusions of a 1958 Iowa freeze hazard study are tested in New York. The time series of freeze dates are random and normally distributed. Spring and autumn freeze dates are independent at a station. The variances of autumn freeze dates are homogeneous throughout New York and variances of spring freeze dates are homogeneous within each of three regions of similar climate. Statistical properties of the freeze date time series should be examined locally before results of studies in other regions are used. (Key words: freeze, frost, climatology, growing-season, New York, statistical methods.)

黄河下游泥沙淤积的经验统计关系

以黄河下游历年实测水文泥沙资料为基础,运用多元回归分析方法,建立了下游河道淤积量与淤积强度的经验统计关系。揭示了不同粒径组泥沙的来量和它们在全沙中所占的比率对下游河道淤积特征的影响。同时,研究了高含沙洪水及清水基流对下游河道淤积的影响。     

河相关系研究的各种方法及其间关系

河相关系的研究旨在寻求河床地貌形态与流域因子的定量关系。除了传统的水文统计方法外,已有多种理论被用来对这一问题进行探索,这些研究方法相互之间都存在一定的关系,发现和认识这些关系将对河相关系的研究产生深刻的影响。本文在这方面作了探讨。     

GROUND TEMPERATURE AND ROCK THERMOPHYSICAL PROPERTIES IN FILDES PENINSULA

During 1985-1986, 1986-1987, and 1988-1989 expeditions on Fildes Peninsula the ground temperature was measured. A total number of 218 ground temperature data were obtained. The thermal conductivity measurements were made on 121 rock samples collected during expedition. This article gives a brief analysis and summarization of these data.     

STATISTICAL INFERENCE IN GEOGRAPHY: MODERN APPROACHES SPELL BETTER TIMES AHEAD*

Concepts relevant to statistical inference testing are discussed within a framework which contrasts conventional methodology with current trends in statistics. The latter are emphasized as having the quality of being less restrictive than the former. To show this quality, randomization testing is described and an example presented. Also described is a nonparametric technique known as QAP, which is particularly versatile. Optimism is expressed about the potentiality of such procedures for geographic research.
