1. 1. Scaling Marine and Water Management

   Författare :Aron Westholm; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Ecosystem approach; Marine management; Freshwater management; Legal geography; Marine spatial planning; Municipal planning; Water planning; Environmental law; Environemnatal management; Environmental governance; Adaptive law; Adaptive management;

   Sammanfattning : This book is concerned with the linkages between legal systems and the complexity of nature. It explores how legal delimitations of ecosystems and diffusion of management across different levels of administration affects priorities and outcomes of natural resource management. LÄS MER

3. 2. Topological and Scaling Analysis of Geospatial Big Data

   Författare :Ding Ma; Bin Jiang; Shaowen Wang; Högskolan i Gävle; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Third definition of fractal; scaling; topology; power law; head tail breaks; ht-index; complex network; geospatial big data; natural cities; natural streets; Hållbar stadsutveckling; Sustainable Urban Development;

   Sammanfattning : Geographic information science and systems face challenges related to understanding the instinctive heterogeneity of geographic space, since conventional geospatial analysis is mainly founded on Euclidean geometry and Gaussian statistics. This thesis adopts a new paradigm, based on fractal geometry and Paretian statistics for geospatial analysis. LÄS MER

4. 3. Geospatial Knowledge Discovery using Volunteered Geographic Information : a Complex System Perspective

   Författare :Tao Jia; Bin Jiang; Yifang Ban; Itzhak Benenson; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; knowledge discovery; urban systems; complex system; VGI; OSM; GPS tracking dataset; scaling; heavy-tailed distribution detection; urban sprawl; Zipf’s law; human activity mobility patterns; agent-based modeling; complex network.;

   Sammanfattning : The continuous progression of urbanization has resulted in an increasing number of people living in cities or towns. In parallel, advancements in technologies, such as the Internet, telecommunications, and transportation, have allowed for better connectivity among people. LÄS MER

5. 4. The Principle of Scaling of Geographic Space and its Application in Urban Studies

   Författare :Xintao Liu; Bin Jiang; Yifang Ban; Meng Liqiu; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; geographic space; scaling; GIScience; VGI; OSM; heavy-tailed distribution; the head tail division rule; space syntax; nature street; urban sprawl; floating car data; hierarchical spatial structure;

   Sammanfattning : Geographic space is the large-scale and continuous space that encircles the earth and in which human activities occur. The study of geographic space has drawn attention in many different fields and has been applied in a variety of studies, including those on cognition, urban planning and navigation systems. LÄS MER

7. 5. Unsaturated Solute Transport in a Semiarid Catchment - Nonlinear Analyses and Modelling

   Författare :Pernilla Öhrström; Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; teknisk geografi; Hydrogeologi; teknisk geologi; unsaturated zone; Hydrogeology; geographical and geological engineering; solute transport; scaling; soils; semiarid regions; heterogeneity; preferential flow; fractals;

   Sammanfattning : Unsaturated solute transport is highly variable and therefore difficult to predict. In semi-arid areas, where water resources are limited, the presence of macropores is of great importance for crop production. The bromide ion (Br-) and dye tracers are useful for studies of water movement. LÄS MER
