透视伊拉克的地缘政治

伊拉克共和国地处亚、欧、非三大洲的结合部,是广大中东干旱缺水地区中的一块最大的绿洲,自古以来就是中东的心脏,地理位置非常重要。在近代,伊拉克发现了丰富的石油,更使之成为世界列强的争夺之地。2003年3月20日上午10时35分,在全球各国无数人的关注之下,伊拉克战争全面打响了。本文从政治地理的角度对伊拉克的位置、民族宗教与地缘政治的关系,以及未来中东地区的地缘政治结构进行了系统分析,供关心伊拉克战争的同仁参考。     

厦门旧城建设步行街区的初步研究

以厦门旧城区西南部为例,对商业街土地利用和商服业现状作了详尽的调查和分析,在阐述旧城区商业街存在总体地位下降,以服装店为主的零售商业功能过于突出,购物环境容量不足等现实问题的基础上,提出以“步行街区”作为厦门旧城商业街更新发展的对策,并据此对步行街区建设涉及到的部分问题进行了探讨。     

中国江南先秦时期人类活动与环境变化

从江南先秦时期不同阶段内遗址内涵和位置的变化着手,分析江南人类活动与环境变迁的关系,探索江南先秦文化遗址中文化层年代不连续的原因,找提出江南先秦文化中心变迁的路径。江南先民是从适应自然走向改造自然道路的,由于认识和改造自然的能力有限,江南土著文化随自然条件发生兴衰,而这种兴衰又成为土著文化相互渗透和交融的动力。     

塔中地区寒武—奥陶系层序地层格架与沉积演化特征

通过层序地层学的划分与对比,将塔中地区寒武—奥陶系划分出8个超层序.其中寒武系包含3个超层序,奥陶系包含5个超层序,下奥陶统2个,中上奥陶统3个.塔中地区寒武—奥陶系沉积相具有典型的分层结构,沉积相在纵向演化上,由下部的蒸发台地、局限台地相、开阔台地相,向上变为台地边缘相、浅水陆棚相、混积陆棚相及斜坡相,代表了海水向上持续增深过程.

ESR dating of fluvial quartz: Estimate of the minimal distance transport required for getting a maximum optical bleaching

An ESR experimental study of artificial optical bleaching of sedimentary quartz has shown that the aluminum center was maximally bleached after a 6-month illumination equivalent to natural light. This duration seems too long to apply in natural conditions. Nevertheless, the measurement of the ESR intensity of aluminum centers in quartz extracted from modern sediments and deposited in sandy bars shows that the maximum bleaching has effectively been reached.

In order to determine the relationship between the bleaching and the distance covered by a quartz grain in a river, samples were collected along the Creuse River (France) from its spring to about 170 km downstream, where maximum bleaching levels were observed in previous studies. The ESR intensities of the aluminum and titanium centers in quartz were measured, using X-band spectroscopy, before and after artificial bleaching. The difference measured between these sub-samples shows that the maximum bleaching level is obtained in the course of the first kilometer. Hence, the assumption that ESR dating of fluvial sediment is based on the optical bleaching was validated.

Spatial dynamics of retail structure and the venerable retail hierarchy

The retail system is continuously adapting itself to changing demographic conditions, consumer behavior and economic conditions. Existing retail units, getting larger in order to achieve economics of scale, and new forms of large-scale retailing do not fit easily in the traditional spatial pattern of retail concentrations. Neverteless the spatial distribution of retailing in urban areas, as schematized by Berry thirty-five years ago, still has its value. Through an upward hierarchical movement the retail system has adapted itself to an inflexible spatial system, in which downtown has still a dominant position. Future developments, however, may weaken the position of central shopping areas in favour of peripheral locations.

AVERAGE GLOBAL LOCATIONS

Global distributions are commonly described by maps and tables which emphasize the dispersion of a distribution. The Mean Spheroidal Center (M.S.C.) defines the average location of a world distribution. It is an objectively determined point within the sphere's surface. The M.S.C. calculations are demonstrated using the world's 25 largest cities in each of four time periods.
