Precise location of unsurveyed seamounts in the Austral archipelago area using SEASAT data

Summary. SEASAT altimetric geoid data are used to detect uncharted sea-mounts in the Austral archipelago area. The various physical parameters which affect the geoid signature of a seamount are inspected to analyse their influence on the precision of the location. These parameters are the shape of the seamount, its density, the crustal model, the effective elastic thickness of the lithosphere and the distance between the seamount and sub-satellite tracks, respectively. The results of the tests performed on synthetic data as well as on charted structures show that when a seamount is detected on at least two neighbouring tracks, it is possible to locate it with good confidence and to give an estimation of its height. If the correct elastic thickness is assumed, the precision on the located is order 15 km. Ten previously unsurveyed seamounts have been located in the Austral archipelago. It appears that they are emplaced along two well-defined azimuths (N 110°E and N 150°E) and that two parallel distinct volcanic chains form the Austral archipelago.

Latent lifestyle preferences and household location decisions

Lifestyle, indicating preferences towards a particular way of living, is a key driver of the decision of where to live. We employ latent class choice models to represent this behavior, where the latent classes are the lifestyles and the choice model is the choice of residential location. Thus, we simultaneously estimate lifestyle groups and how lifestyle impacts location decisions. Empirical results indicate three latent lifestyle segments: suburban dwellers, urban dwellers, and transit-riders. The suggested lifestyle segments have intriguing policy implications. Lifecycle characteristics are used to predict lifestyle preferences, although there remain significant aspects that cannot be explained by observable variables.

Seismic analysis of the Xiluodu reservoir area and insights into the geometry of seismogenic faults

The Xiluodu (XLD) reservoir is the second largest reservoir in China and the largest in the Jinsha River basin. The occurrence of two M > 5 earthquakes after reservoir impoundment has aroused great interest among seismologists and plant operators. We comprehensively analyzed the seismicity of the XLD reservoir area using precise earthquake relocation results and focal mechanism solutions and found that the seismicity of this area was weak before impoundment. Following impoundment, earthquake activity increased significantly. The occurrence of M ≥ 3.5 earthquakes within five years of impoundment also appear to be closely related to rapid rises and falls in water level, though this correlation weakened after five years because earthquake activity was far from the reservoir area. Earthquakes in the XLD reservoir area are clustered; near the dam (Area A), small faults are intermittently distributed along the river, while Area B is composed of multiple NW-trending left-lateral strike-slip faults and a thrust fault and Area C is composed of a NW-trending left-lateral strike-slip main fault and a nearly EW-trending right-lateral strike-slip minor fault. The geometries of the deep and the shallow parts of the NW-trending fault differ. Under the action of the NW-trending background stress field, a series of NW-trending left-lateral strike-slip faults and NE-trending thrust faults in critical stress states were dislocated due to the stress caused by reservoir impoundment. The two largest earthquakes in the XLD reservoir area were tectonic earthquakes that were directly triggered by impoundment.

基于InSAR视角对基线精度的影响分析

干涉合成孔径雷达中存在的基线误差会严重影响高程测量的精度问题。由于地球曲率的存在,地物点参考椭球半径在不同纬度地区与星下点的地球半径存在较大的差异,给出了雷达视角与基线的关系式。从雷达临界视角的角度,给出了临界基线的公式。结果表明在一幅影像图上,用一个点的基线值代替整张影像的基线值所产生的误差会传播到DEM以及形变的结果中。

空间移动问卷调查方法研究

目前的问卷调查方法不关注空间地理信息,向决策者提供的信息多数为简单的统计分析结果,不能充分挖掘问卷中隐含的信息。该文提出了空间移动问卷调查方法,将每个"问卷"样本看做融"空间、时间、属性"于一体的"空间对象",通过引入GIS地图,将所有问卷样本进行空间可视化表达,并通过空间数据探索分析进一步揭示问卷属性信息背后潜藏的与社会、经济、人文等诸多因素相关的空间地理特征信息,也可针对问卷中的属性信息进行深入空间化研究。以空间问卷调查系统为例,以Android操作系统为平台,在客户端、用户操作流程、功能模块方面进行了构架。初步应用表明,该系统不仅丰富了问卷调查的内容,也为问卷调查工作的数字化、智能化、空间可视化提供了重要参考,但在系统的灵活性和实用性方面仍需强化。
