致密射电源的快速偏振变化和星际闪烁模型

以类星体０９１７＋６２４中１９８９年５月观测到的ＩＤＶ事件为实例,尝试提出一个４成分模型（１个稳定成分和 ３个闪烁成分）以充分解释在 ６ ｃｍ波长上观测到的偏振变化,包括流量和偏振流量的相关性和反相关性以及它们之间的快速转化．对于 ２０ ｃｍ波长上观测到的偏振变化,３成分模型（１个稳定成分和３个闪烁成分）已足以解释全部现象．文中提出的闪烁模型在解释ＩＤＶ事件的偏振变化方面改进了以前的模型拟合．     

AMERICAN ROADS,ROADSIDE AMERICA*

ABSTRACT. Federal support for planning and building roads provided an opportunity to create a new kind of place, the American roadside. The roadside grew up beside the public road as a distinct private space, yet the two were linked as road travelers came to depend on the services provided by people who lived at the road's edge. Federal road-improvement legislation brought discipline to the surveying, construction, and configuration of roads. But roadside structures remained largely the creation of local people, who built a vernacular landscape that was undisciplined and in strong contrast to the road's regimentation. The roadside became a new kind of space occupying the unstable zone between the discipline of the road and the informality of the countryside, a spatial contradiction that gave license to a new, free-wheeling, mercantile logic, an improvisational departure from the staid formality of Main Street.     

基于新闻数据的新冠疫情事件下“全球-中国”国际关系变化分析方法

在新冠疫情的冲击下,国际关系错综复杂、瞬息万变,不稳定性不确定性剧增。全面及时地分析“全球-中国”国际关系变化特征,对于中国的外交发展规划具有重要的参考价值。复杂的国际关系可以分解为一系列事件单元,新闻数据中蕴含了时间、地点、人物、事物等关键信息,是构建事件的最直接、最全面的信息来源。本文以GDELT（Global Database of Events, Language, and Tone）新闻事件数据库为数据源,基于“全球-中国”的视角,利用2020年1—5月全球疫情相关新闻数据,研究新冠疫情事件背景下的国际关系的变化。本文首先以事件数量、事件强度值和事件被提及数作为关键变量,提出了国际关系的分类表达和计算模型,解决了国际关系表达模糊和难以计算的问题。然后从时空可视化角度展示疫情下国际关系的变化特征,并结合疫情期间的国际重要事件,进一步分析引起国际关系变化的原因。研究表明,采用本文方法能精确掌握新冠疫情下“全球—中国”国际关系的发展程度,发现“全球-中国”国际关系的变化规律和变化原因,具有重要的应用价值。本文的研究可以为大数据时代的国际关系研究提供一个新的视角,同时也为新闻数据的分析提供参考。     

黄土地基强夯后消除湿陷性的有效深度的研究

本文是研究湿陷性黄土地基经强夯后(自原地面算起)消除黄土湿陷性的有效深度。为了建立强夯变量(夯锤重量W、落距H、夯锤底面积的半径r、夯击次数N、土的干容重γd和含水量w)与消除黄土湿陷性的有效深度之间的关系,作者做了黄土强夯的室内模型试验,取得强整变量与消除湿陷性的有效深度有关的各项数据,同时也收集了现场强夯试验的各项数据,应用统计分拆,得到了估算消除湿陷性的有效深度的经验公式。     

重力数据误差对大地水准面模型建立的影响

基于Stokes理论建立的大地水准面模型,其精度受重力数据误差,即重力数据分辨率、精度以及积分范围的影响。针对这一问题,通过重力场谱特征分析,给出不同地形区域重力数据分辨率以及积分半径造成的大地水准面高频截断误差的量级大小,计算平均重力异常误差对大地水准面建模精度的影响。研究成果对不同地形区域cm级大地水准面模型的建立具有理论与指导意义。     

Conformally coupled Abelian gauged Q balls

A conformally coupled Abelian gauged Q ball is studied in curved space. The mass of the Q ball is calculated in terms of the conserved Q charge and the parameters in the lagrangian and a brief discussion is given on the effects produced by the conformal couplings.     

A formal framework for the representation of stack-based terrains

This paper presents a formal framework for the representation of three-dimensional geospatial data and the definition of common geographic information system (GIS) spatial operations. We use the compact stack-based representation of terrains (SBRT) in order to model geological volumetric data, both at the surface and subsurface levels, thus preventing the large storage requirements of regular voxel models. The main contribution of this paper is fitting the SBRT into the geo-atom theory in a seamless way, providing it with a sound formal geographic foundation. In addition we have defined a set of common spatial operations on this representation using the tools provided by map algebra. More complex geoprocessing operations or geophysical simulations using the SBRT as representation can be implemented as a composition of these fundamental operations. Finally a data model and an implementation extending the coverage concept provided by the Geography Markup Language standard are suggested. Geoscientists and GIS professionals can take advantage of this model to exchange and reuse geoinformation within a well-specified framework.     

Introductory Human Geography Textbook Representations of Africa

This article analyzes representations of Africa found in ten introductory human geography textbooks. Recent research in communications studies cites the common tendencies of the U.S. media to represent Africa in rhetorical tropes of disaster that are ahistorical and rife with geographical abstraction and misrepresentation. The main textbooks in geography tend to avoid ahistorical and geographical simplification, yet they often repeat stereotypes and misleading media imagery concerning Africa. A broad body of works by geographers in the last decade that offers critical scholarly analysis of both African crises and African everyday life is generally underrepresented in the discipline's introductory textbooks, although some encouraging exceptions do exist to that generalization. It is suggested that geographers need to critically re-examine the ways in which African examples are utilized to teach fundamentals of human geography.
