Physical environment, man‐made pollution, nutrition and their mutual interactions can be major causes of human diseases. These disease determinants have distinct spatial distributions across geographical units, so that adequate study involves the investigation associated strata. We propose four detectors based on variation analysis strata to assess environmental risks health: risk detector indicates where areas are; factor identifies factors are responsible for risk; ecological discloses...
The covariance and variogram models (ordinary or generalized) are important statistical tools used in various estimation simulation techniques which have been recently applied to diverse hydrologic problems. For example, the efficacy of kriging, a method for interpolating, filtering, averaging spatial phenomena, depends, large extent, on model chosen. aim this article is provide users these with convenient criteria that may help them judge whether function arises particular problem, not...
The Hand-Foot-Mouth Disease (HFMD) is the most common infectious disease in China, its total incidence being around 500,000 ~1,000,000 cases per year. composite space-time variation result of underlining attribute mechanisms that could provide clues about physiologic and demographic determinants transmission also guide appropriate allocation medical resources to control disease. HFMD were aggregated into 1456 counties during a period 11 months. Suspected climate attributes recorded monthly...
There has been discrepancies between the daily air quality reports of Beijing municipal government, observations recorded at U.S. Embassy in Beijing, and residents’ perceptions quality. This study estimates Beijing’s area PM2.5 mass concentration by means a novel technique SPA (Single Point Areal Estimation) that uses data from single observation station U.S 18 PM10 stations Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau. The proposed accounts for empirical relationships different types...
This study mapped the areal extent, identified species composition, and analyzed changes of salt marshes in intertidal zone China during period 1985–2019. With aid cloud platform Google Earth Engine, we selected Landsat 5/8 Sentinel-2 images used support vector machine classification method to extract marsh information for years 1985, 1990, 1995, 2000, 2005, 2010, 2015, 2019. Seven major marshes: Phragmites australis , Suaeda spp., Spartina alterniflora Scirpus mariqueter Tamarix chinensis...
