GVAD技术及其在新一代天气雷达中的应用

天气雷达中VAD技术可求取雷达站上空水平风垂直廓线,梯度VAD技术(简称GVAD技术)为克服传统VAD技术受速度模糊影响较大而被提出。文中首先从理论上对GVAD技术进行模拟分析,再将其应用于新一代天气雷达实际探测的台风与大范围强降水速度模糊个例,分析其应用效果。理论模拟表明,GVAD技术较传统VAD技术可有效克服速度模糊对反演水平风垂直廓线的影响,加入的模拟噪声,也通过低通滤波方法有效抑制;在两次实际应用个例中,GVAD技术可较好克服速度模糊影响,但方位径向速度中的小波动或者噪声会在径向速度方位梯度中放大,尽管利用低通滤波进行了平滑,但其对反演水平风精度有较大影响,尤其影响水平风速反演精度,在个例中GVAD技术反演风速较传统VAD技术平均偏弱2~3m·s~(-1),模拟部分方位缺失并不影响GVAD技术的反演精度。需进一步研究减少新一代天气雷达径向速度资料中小波动或者噪声对GVAD技术应用影响的方法。     

遥感影像主特征线检测

受到成像规律性差,背景纹理复杂及强烈噪声的影响,直线检测方法通常难以适应遥感影像处理的需求。有鉴于此,论文提出一种具有视觉显著性的遥感影像主特征线检测方法。论文首先论证了利用已提取直线为基元,基于格式塔法则构建主特征线的可行性;其次对直线在主特征线上的复杂投影情况进行了详细的剖析,并给出了主特征线的定义;接着建立了主特征线累计权重矩阵及直线统计矩阵,依据格式塔原则分析直线权重分布规律,以此构建了直线的权重模型,同时探讨不同直线在同一主特征线上权重分配规律;最后依据上述分析结果提出了具体的算法步骤。通过多幅含有强烈噪声的光学与SAR遥感卫星影像实验结果表明,相对于其他聚类算法,论文算法能够在杂乱无序的直线集中提取较为清晰的主特征线,并且实验效果基本符合人工视觉感知,便于机器对遥感影像的清晰理解。     

Shapes on a plane: evaluating the impact of projection distortion on spatial binning

ABSTRACT

One method for working with large, dense sets of spatial point data is to aggregate the measure of the data into polygonal containers, such as political boundaries, or into regular spatial bins such as triangles, squares, or hexagons. When mapping these aggregations, the map projection must inevitably distort relationships. This distortion can impact the reader’s ability to compare count and density measures across the map. Spatial binning, particularly via hexagons, is becoming a popular technique for displaying aggregate measures of point data sets. Increasingly, we see questionable use of the technique without attendant discussion of its hazards. In this work, we discuss when and why spatial binning works and how mapmakers can better understand the limitations caused by distortion from projecting to the plane. We introduce equations for evaluating distortion’s impact on one common projection (Web Mercator) and discuss how the methods used generalize to other projections. While we focus on hexagonal binning, these same considerations affect spatial bins of any shape, and more generally, any analysis of geographic data performed in planar space.

AB Dor: A single star with RSCVn like activity in X-ray band

Using the archival ROSAT PSPC observations, AB Dor is found to be variable in X-rays. The periodic variations are consistent with previously reported rotational period of 0 ^d .514. The average spectrum of AB Dor is best represented with two-temperature Raymond-Smith model with kT values of 0.19±0.07 and 1.17±0.02 keV. The quiescent luminosity of the system is found to be 4.36±0.6×10³⁰ ergs s^–1. A flare with a rise time of 350 seconds is detected during which X-ray luminosity rises from 5.8±1.6×10³⁰ to 15.8±4.9×10³⁰ ergs s^–1. We conclude that AB Dor is very similar to the active components of RS CVn binaries and other active classes. In view of the wide separation from the binary companion Rst 137B, this activity must be intrinsic to the active star.     

Water quality in New Zealand rivers: current state and trends

River water quality, particularly in lowland catchments, is a matter of concern to the New Zealand public. We assessed river water quality and biological state and trends using data from more than 900 monitoring sites. Parallel state and trend analyses were carried out using all sites and a subset of lowland river sites. Median water-quality state in urban and pastoral land-cover classes was poorer than in exotic forest and natural land-cover classes, and lowland sites in the urban and pastoral classes had the poorest water quality. Nutrient and Escherichia coli concentrations increased and visual clarity and Macroinvertebrate Community Index scores decreased as proportions of catchments in high-intensity agricultural and urban land cover increased. Ten-year trends (2004–2013) indicated recent improvements in ammoniacal nitrogen, dissolved reactive phosphorus and total phosphorus in the pastoral and urban classes, possibly reflecting improved land management. In contrast, trends in nitrate-nitrogen in the exotic forest and cool-dry/pastoral classes indicated worsening conditions.

ENC不一致性问题分类及其对策

ENC作为一种独特的地理空间信息产品,广泛应用于ECDIS(电子海图显示与信息系统)。由于多方面原因,海员在ECDIS使用过程中可发现ENC中存在一些不一致性现象,不仅影响了ENC的数据质量和可信度,而且容易使海员对海上地理要素产生混淆和误判,最终影响船舶海上航行安全。由于海图编绘资料的多源性以及以单幅数据进行生产的作业模式,数据生产者在数据质量评价时都将关注点放在单幅数据的检校,却忽视了数据之间的不一致问题。为此,对各类不一致问题进行梳理分类,按照出现位置不同,将不一致问题分为"ENC内部不一致性"、"邻接ENC之间不一致性"和"重叠ENC之间不一致性"等3大类,分别进行了原因分析和示例说明,最后给出了解决ENC不一致性的途径,为ENC不一致问题的进一步研究指明了方向。
