Constructing 'the geographical archive'

The recent success of the RGS–IBG in securing funds to develop the Society's archives provides a moment in which those interested in the history of geographical knowledge and of geography as an academic discipline might reflect on the nature of 'the geographical archive' that is constituted in and by the academic department. Drawing, in part, upon the work of Derrida and of Foucault, the paper firstly examines what an archive is and what it does. Secondly, the paper raises questions about the process of archiving and the practices of being in the archive, using the example of a research project on the history of disciplinary geography in the author's university department. In conclusion, the paper calls for wider collective attention to the nature of 'the geographical archive' in institutions teaching and researching geography in the UK.     

Machine Learning of Weather Forecasting Rules from Large Meteorological Data Bases

Discovery of useful forecasting rules from observational weather data is an outstanding interesting topic.The traditional methods of acquiring forecasting knowledge are manual analysis and investigation performed by human scientists.This paper presents the experimental results of an automatic machine learning system which derives forecasting rules from real observational data.We tested the system on the two large real data sets from the areas of centra! China and Victoria of Australia.The experimental results show that the forecasting rules discovered by the system are very competitive to human experts.The forecasting accuracy rates are 86.4% and 78% of the two data sets respectively

知识发现在赤潮预测预警系统研究中的应用

目前大多数赤潮的预测研究工作着重在系统模型的准确性上，忽视模型所能提供的对生态系统行为的相互关系的解释的很多信息。而机器学习所获得的知识能够帮助对生态行为之间的因果关系更深入的认识。文章将知识发现技术应用于海洋检测数据之中，取得了较好的效果，这将对于赤潮预测预警系统的研究与建立起着关键的作用。     

基于钻孔数据的地层三维建模与可视化研究

地质体三维建模是地学信息系统核心课题之一,对现有建模方法进行分析,结合地层特点,提出首先引入虚拟钻孔,利用Kriging插值方法建立地层三维模型;其次把虚拟钻孔参数的调试结果及专家知识等资料在建模流程中予以充分体现,从而建立相对精确的三维地层模型;最后基于本文建模方法开发了一个三维地层模型,并用实际资料进行了验证,能有效满足工程需求。

Geographies of knowledge, practices of globalization: learning from the oil exploration and production industry

In this paper we initiate a dialogue between work on the geographies of globalization and knowledge economies, areas of inquiry that have tended to develop in isolation. We argue for a critical harnessing of these two bodies of work to (1) understand how and where different types of knowledge are acquired, produced and mobilized by firms as they seek to 'go global', (2) map the multi-scalar geographies of knowledge that enable practices of globalization and (3) examine the ways in which networks of knowledge structure emerging geographies of production. We demonstrate the potential of this move using oil exploration and production as an example.
