长江经济带高级别旅游资源空间分布及影响因素

以AAAA,AAAAA级旅游景区为研究对象,采用地理数学方法和GIS空间分析工具分析长江经济带高级别旅游资源的空间分布特征和影响因素。结果表明:长江经济带高级别旅游资源的空间分布类型为凝聚型;高级别旅游资源的空间分布均衡性很低,在省域、区域尺度上呈集中非均衡分布;高级别旅游资源在空间分布密度上具有明显的差异性,以上海市和江苏省的苏州、无锡、南京以及浙江省的杭州、宁波为核心的长江三角洲及重庆都市区是高级别旅游资源分布最为密集的区域;水体资源禀赋、交通条件、经济发展水平及区域人口规模是影响长江经济带高级别旅游资源空间分布的主要影响因素。最后,提出了促进长江经济带旅游协调健康发展的建议。     

基于GIS的交通经济带空间边界界定方法研究--以沪宁杭高速公路经济带为例

随着经济的发展，交通运输系统对生产力发展的贡献日益增强，一种以交通运输干线为发展轴线，以周边大中城市与城镇群为依托，不断集聚和扩散人流、物流、信息流的带状空间经济综合体——交通经济带不断生长并迅速发展，本文首先阐述了交通经济带的基本模式，重点分析了高速公路经济带的特点。在此基础上，以沪宁杭高速公路经济带为例，运用GIS专题地图叠加、缓冲区等空间分析功能，建立了一种界定交通经济带空间边界的方法。     

历史罗盘玩倒转王莽锡来无锡变有锡 乾坤球仪拨自转刘秀锡去有锡变无锡 江苏无锡锡山山无锡

无锡简称“锡”,因无锡有锡山而得名。“无锡锡山山无锡”,是无锡的一句老话,意为无锡虽有锡山,却没有锡。 据晋代周处《阳羡风土记》记载：“昔有谶云：‘无锡宁,天下平,有锡兵,天下争。”’这是迄今所能见到的最早关于有锡无锡之说的记载,但明确是一条谶语。     

交通经济带的基础理论及其生命周期模式研究

随着生产力的发展，区域经济系统的空间演化与交通运输线的联系日益密切，一种依托交通干线不断集散、融合人口、产业、城镇、物流、能流、信息流的线状空间地域综合体不断生长并迅速发展，我们将这种独特的空间地域综合体称为交通经济带（Ｔｒａｆｆｉｃ Ｅｃｏｎｏｍｉｃ Ｂｅｌｔ）。本文系统阐述了交通经济带的基本概念、基本类型、基本性质，并创建性地提出了交通经济带的生命周期理论。     

江苏省主要经济带产业转换与空间相互作用研究

在总结国内外对经济带相关研究成果的基础上,分析了江苏省主要经济带产业与空间结构的现状与发展特征,并运用主成分分析法对四大经济带的产业结构转换能力进行了综合评价,结合引力模式对四大经济带的空间相互作用强度进行了比较分析,结果发现四大经济带的产业结构转换能力和空间相互作用强度存在着明显的区域不平衡;在此基础上,提出江苏省四大经济带产业与空间联动发展的主要对策与措施。     

长江经济带形成演变的地理基础

长江经济带从提出到上升为国家级重大区域发展战略,有着大河流域经济带形成的客观存在性与历史必然性。大河流域经济带往往都经历了“逐水而居的居住地—资源轴带(农牧业、矿业、水能)—交通轴带—工业产业带—城市密集轴带”的发展演变历程,其空间发展表现为“增长点”至“增长轴”,进而向“经济带”的转变,这种流域经济带的地理形态变化,蕴含着作为流域这一特殊而基本地理单元区域发展与空间演变的规律。由点至轴到带的空间演变,也推动着流域经济带由小规模到大规模,由低水平向高水平,空间上由点到面的演变过程。该演变不仅存在资源与区位等优势驱动,更有着生态环境承载力等的刚性约束,深刻反映出经济带发展中的地理环境载体的重要性。对长江经济带形成演变科学内涵与地理基础展开探讨,以期为新时期大河流域经济带绿色高质量发展提供借鉴。     

长江经济带环境创新的时空特征及其影响因素

以绿色专利申请量为评价指标对长江经济带环境创新的时空特征进行了多维度挖掘,并揭示了其影响因素,研究发现：① 时序发展上,长江经济带环境创新空间集聚特征显著,绿色建筑技术始终主导长江经济带环境创新演化发展;② 空间演化上,长江经济带环境创新格局整体表现为由东部地区主导,并呈现出由东向西的阶梯推进的发展特征,且呈现出显著的空间关联性;③ 长江经济带环境创新具有显著的空间溢出效应,环境规制强度、技术创新水平、城市规模、第三产业比重和环境质量皆对长江经济带城市环境创新能力有着显著的正向促进作用,但环境规制强度不具有明显的空间溢出效应,且技术创新水平具有显著的负向溢出效应。     

长江经济带国土空间开发结构解析

本文从长江经济带在全国国土空间开发格局中的地位以及长江经济带开发空间结构的特征等两个层面,对长江经济带国土空间开发结构进行了解析。通过分析长江经济带在人口经济的集聚功能和长三角地区的辐射功能,以及全球化和区域一体化进程对中国国土空间结构组织的影响,论证了长江经济带的战略地位。通过资源环境承载能力、国土空间开发适宜程度、主体功能定位的数量结构、空间形态结构、以及成因和相互交叉分析,并结合与国家层面相应结构的比较研究,提出了长江经济带的空间格局特征。按照十八届五中全会提出的长江经济带创新发展的要求,对未来长江经济带战略地位和空间结构演变及应对策略等新命题进行了初步探讨。     

Spatial connection and radiation effect of regional high-quality development: A case study of the Liaoning coastal economic belt北大核心CSCD

推动辽宁沿海经济带高质量发展,对促进辽宁发展、东北振兴、东北亚区域合作均具有重要意义。在梳理高质量发展内涵的基础上,论文构建高质量发展评价指标体系,运用熵权TOPSIS法测度2006—2020年辽宁沿海经济带高质量发展水平;利用改进引力模型探讨高质量发展的空间联系结构及引力格局,结合威尔逊模型对城市高质量辐射范围测算。结果表明：(1)研究期内辽宁沿海经济带高质量发展水平呈波动上升趋势,发展水平空间差异显著,同时呈现“以大连为高地,黄海翼、渤海翼两大低谷连绵区”的空间分布格局。(2)各维度指标发展动力主要来源于协调发展、深化改革和绿色发展;创新发展、动能转换和共享发展呈大连一核引领的空间分异,绿色发展和协调发展呈渤海翼领先发展的空间分异,开放发展和深化改革呈黄海翼领先发展空间分异特征。(3)空间联系网络结构复杂,但仍需进一步创新辽宁沿海经济带、沈阳经济区、辽西北三大区域协调发展机制,提升城市空间联系等级。(4)辽宁沿海经济带呈现出对外辐射型、对外依赖型、辐射依赖相当型3类城市空间联系结构;并将经济带划分为“一核引领、两翼协同、多点支撑”的引力格局;大连是唯一的对外辐射型城市,空间辐射范围也呈对外扩张趋势。     

《长江经济带资源环境与绿色发展》评介

长江经济带是全国区域协调发展战略中的关键战略区域,是当前实现高质量发展和可持续发展的战略高地之一,也是创新驱动、绿色发展的重要示范区.推进长江经济带生态文明建设,离不开国土空间的有力支撑.可见,按照"共抓大保护,不搞大开发"的总体部署,科学认识长江经济带国土空间格局,有效地保护与利用,是长江经济带实现绿色发展的根本前提.

Deserts and Aeolian Desertification in China: Book review and some thoughts

Desertification is a global phenomenon that affects about two billion people. It occurs in arid zones where the annual precipitation is below 400 mm, partic- ularly in the marginal areas of the world＇s largest deserts. It is a result of water and wind erosion, over- grazing, global warm-ing, improper soil cultivation, and increased pressure ot population growth, and it causes degradation of soil and natural and agricultural vegetation. The direct result is less food for people and livestock, which influences pop- ulation and animal husbandry fluctuations. Despite ef- forts to combat and reduce desertification, the affected areas are annually increasing.

THE MOST PERFECT EXAMPLE OF AN ALIEN ECOLOGY EVER CONSTRUCTED

Much science-fiction literature is based upon the creation and exploration of alternative environments. Stanley G. Weinbaum's short story, “Parasite Planet,”introduces an unusual environment that may be wrong in the light of recent evidence on Venus but still stimulates the geographical imagination.     

Metals and models: Diagenic modelling in freshwater lacustrine sediments

This review aims to distill and synthesize the existing information on the use of models to describe and predict the distribution and movement of metals in lacustrine sediments. As such it examines the causes of metal diagenesis, the origin and form of the equations that govern these phenomena, and the predictability or measurability of the parameters that appear in the models. The paper concludes by highlighting some seminal results from modelling studies, including the determination of the factors controlling the formation of surficial Mn-Fe-enriched zone or layers, the substantial contribution possible from metal reduction to organic matter regeneration, the calculation of mixing-corrected metal input histories to lakes, and the prediction of growth rates and morphologies for both deep-sea and lacustrine ferromanganese nodules.     

Guidelines to Authors

正1.Aims and scope Sciences in Cold and Arid Regions(SCAR)is a bimonthly journal that publishes in English the latest research achievements in processes and the patterns of the Earth surface system in cold and arid regions.Researches in cold regions emphasize particularly on the cold-region-characterized physical,chemical and biological processes and their interactions,and on the response of cryosphere to global change and human activities as well as their effects on environment and the acclimatizable strategies;focus on the objects of glacier,snow,river,lake,sea ice,permafrost and seasonal frozen ground,and periglacial geomorphology,etc.;and think much of cold regions
