THE DEMOGRAPHIC CONSEQUENCES OF METROPOLITAN POPULATION DECONCENTRATION IN THE U.S.

Although the recent growth in the nonmetropolitan population of the U.S. is now well documented, little attention has been given to the consequences these trends will have on the future composition and growth of metropolitan and nonmetropolitan regions. This paper discusses the feedback effects of migration on the future age structure and population growth of both regions during the period 1975–2000.     

闲暇时间约束对中山陵景区国内客源市场空间结构的影响

闲暇时间是旅游需求得以实现的必要条件之一,居民闲暇时间的变化必然对旅游地客源市场空间结构产生影响。选择"五一"小长假、"十一"黄金周及暑假3类6个不同闲暇时长的时段,基于现场问卷调研,使用客源地地理集中指数、客源吸引半径、距离衰减曲线及引力模型研究闲暇时间约束对南京市中山陵景区客源市场空间结构的影响,发现随着假日时长的增加,居民出游距离受闲暇时间的约束降低,从而旅游地客源吸引半径增大,客源地集中指数降低、距离衰减曲线变缓、距离衰减指数降低。研究结果表明,在不同时长的闲暇时间约束下,距离因素对景区客流量的影响最大,其次为收入(客源地人均地区生产总值),而客源地人口规模因素的影响最小。     

Exploring Regional Firm-Size Structure in Canadian Housebuilding: Ontario, 1991 and 1996

This paper is concerned with the regional firm-size structure of housebuilding in Canada based on a case study of the province of Ontario. Using an innovative database of builders in Ontario and geographic information systems, measures of regional firm-size structure are developed and are modeled with data from the Canadian census. The results corroborate established models in the city systems and industrial organization literatures in that industrial concentration is negatively associated with regional population size, economic diversity, and economic performance. Small housebuilding firms abound in large, diverse and economically vibrant regions, especially large urban regions, and thereby maintain industrial deconcentration.     

快速工业化背景下漳浦县旅游空间布局思考

漳浦县基于建设海峡西岸经济区和ECFA等政策机遇,依托大型石化项目和闽台特色农业项目合作的快速工业化,推进其国民经济迅速发展和产业结构转型升级,同时也给旅游业发展带来了政策、资金、基础设施完善和发展等机遇及旅游环境质量下降的潜在风险。"十二五"期间,快速工业化背景下,漳浦县旅游业发展应继续深化滨海火山旅游和闽台特色农业文化旅游两大特色,根据"点-轴"理论和增长极理论,结合县域功能区和空间布局调整,建立"一心两带"的功能分区和"两中心四区"的空间布局,以适应新形势的发展。     

洛阳市旅游资源的空间结构及其演化模式

通过对洛阳市旅游景点体系的集聚度、通达度和分异度指标分析,认为洛阳市旅游资源空间分布呈现整体均匀、中部集聚态势,景点网络的通达度有待提高。基于洛阳市旅游资源的密度和品位度空间分布等高线图,将洛阳市旅游资源化为3个核心-边缘单元:即洛阳——文化旅游资源体系、栾(川)嵩(县)——山岳旅游资源体系和新安——山水旅游资源体系。根据区域发展的离散阶段、成长阶段和成熟阶段,讨论了3个资源体系目前所处的阶段和边缘地区可能的发展趋势。     

吉林省产业结构演变城市化响应的地域类型及调控模式

本文提出了产业结构演变城市化响应地域类型的概念,依据城市与区域发展的要素、结构特点及发展机制的空间差异性,将吉林省划分出大城市地域、资源-工矿型地域、传统农业地域、边境口岸地域和环境脆弱地域五种类型地域。研究了不同地域类型城市化与产业结构演变相互作用的特点及变化趋势。并强调,大城市地域产业结构升级与职能扩散,资源-工矿型地域产业与城镇空间重构,传统农业地域城镇化的空间集聚,边境口岸地域产业与城市的地缘整合,环境脆弱地域产业与城市发展的生态化,是未来吉林省产业结构演变城市化响应地域类型的主要调控模式。     

Whole mantle SH velocity model constrained by waveform inversion based on three-dimensional Born kernels

A whole mantle SH velocity model is obtained by using a unique data set and techniques. Body and surface waveforms including major and multi-orbit phases are used as a data set and are inverted by using 3-D Born kernels. The resultant model, SH18CE, reveals the different natures of the two major upwelling systems: the strong low velocity anomalies beneath Africa extend for more than 1000 km from the core–mantle boundary (CMB), whereas those beneath the Pacific are restricted to 300–400 km from the CMB. The results also show the variable natures of stagnant slabs on the 670 discontinuity around Japan: the depths of the strongest high velocity anomalies within the stagnant slabs are different region by region, which is consistent with the detailed delay time tomography model in this area.     

柴达木盆地西部鄂博梁Ⅱ号构造深层卤水储层特征与锂硼资源富集成因

鄂博梁Ⅱ号构造是柴达木盆地西部鄂博梁Ⅰ-Ⅲ号褶皱带中的一个局部构造,在古新世—上新世以来主要为河流泛滥平原相、滨浅湖相和深湖相构造环境,在“高山深盆”的构造环境下,接受了大量造山带物源碎屑补给并赋存卤水矿床。通过对钻孔岩性、孔隙度、给水度、地球物理测井等数据进行分析,总结下油砂山组下部和干柴沟组地层是区内相对较好的深层卤水赋存层位,可作为深层卤水的重点探矿层位进一步勘查。同时,鄂博梁Ⅱ号构造钻孔深层卤水化学组成及特征系数分析结果显示,该水体为低矿化度(平均值为73.00 g/L)、Na⁺、Cl-为主的卤水,其中Li、B等元素含量达到边界品位以上,Br、I元素含量也达到或接近综合利用标准,具有较好的深层卤水找矿前景;卤水的成因为柴达木盆地周缘中新生代以来深部火山热泉补给、造山带火山岩物质风化和溶滤盐岩富集成矿。
