Abstract In contrast to the glacier mass losses observed at other locations around world, some glaciers in High Mountains of Asia appear have gained recent decades. However, changes digital elevation models indicate that Karakoram and Pamir mass, while laser altimetry data gain centred on West Kunlun. Here, we obtain results are essentially consistent with those from altimetry, but two-dimensional observations higher resolution. We produced using radar interferometry applied bistatic...
Globalization characterizes the economic, social, political, and cultural spheres of modern world. Tourism has long been claimed as a crucial force shaping globalization, while in turn developments tourism sector are under influences growing interdependence across As globalization proceeds, destination countries have become more susceptible to local global events. By linking existing literature coherently, this study explores number themes on economic tourism. It attempts identify forces...
This study uses a gravity framework to model tourism demand for the Caribbean. The basic is augmented by Linder’s hypothesis—tourist flows are partly determined similarity in preferences between destination and source markets—and climate distance, which measures gap conditions origin countries. results indicate that traditional variables significant explaining region. Habit persistence has largest impact on demand, result holds promise regional policy makers. Evidence also unearthed region...
This study examines the demand for Thai tourism by seven major origin countries – Australia, Japan, Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, UK and USA. The general-to-specific modelling approach is followed in construction, estimation, testing selection of models. empirical results show that habit persistence most important factor influences residents from all countries. income, own price, cross price trade volume variables are also found to be significant models, but explanatory power these variables,...
Previous research has suggested that the anomalous western North Pacific anticyclone (WNPAC) can generally persist from an El Niño mature winter to subsequent summer, influencing southern China precipitation significantly, where includes Yangtze River valley and South China. Since late 1970s, three extreme events have been recorded: 1982/83, 1997/98, 2015/16. There was a sharp contrast in change rainfall corresponding atmospheric circulations decaying August between 2015/16 event earlier two...
The intensification of millet agriculture facilitated the development ancient civilization in northern China. In Inner Mongolia and Central Plains, farming was relatively continuous. However, prior evidence from western Loess Plateau (WLP) has suggested an indistinct sequence cultivation a time lag between initial subsequent expansion farming. We report on new stable isotopic data radiocarbon dates Gedachuan site which challenge that interpretation. Our results indicate gradual across whole...
Abstract Glaciers in the Muztag Ata and Konggur mountains of eastern Pamir plateau, northwestern China, have been monitored by applying aerial photo stereo models (1962/66) Landsat TM (1990) ETM+ (1999) images, all which compared order to detect areal frontal changes through past four decades. The mean retreat glaciers increased from 6.0 ma −1 between 1962/66 1990 11.2ma 1999, with an overall glacier length reduction 9.9% for whole study period. area has decreased 7.9%, mainly due observed...
The interaction between urban transport, land cover change and the distribution of population is a typical manifestation urbanization process. As high-grade road, expressway plays significant role in promoting resource circulation economic development. Based on road distribution, census data, this study specifically probed relationship expressways Beijing. results show that: (1) as distance from an increases, amount built-up gradually decreased, transfer near was more intensive frequent when...
In November 2013 an International Key Comparison, CCM.G-K2, was organized in the Underground Laboratory for Geodynamics Walferdange. The comparison has assembled 25 participants coming from 19 countries and four different continents. divided into two parts: key that included 10 NMIs or DIs, pilot study including all participants. global result given by confirms instruments are absolutely coherent to each other. results obtained confirm a good agreement between NMI instruments.
Suppose that $X_1,\ldots,X_n$ are i.i.d. $\sim F$, and we wish to test the null hypothesis $F$ is a member of parametric family $\mathscr{F} = \{F_\theta(x); \theta \in \Theta\}$ where $\Theta \subset \mathbb{R}^q$. The classical Pearson-Fisher chi-square involves partitioning real axis into $k$ cells $I_1,\ldots, I_k$ forming statistic $X^2 \sum^k_{i 1}(O_i - nF_{\hat{\theta}}(I_i))^2/nF_{\hat{\theta}}(I_i)$, $O_i$ number observations falling cell $i$ $\hat{\theta}$ value $\theta$...
Urban rivers are vital for urbanization and regional economic development, which can provide water living, industrial agricultural needs of urban residents, regulate the hydrological environment in urban. The exploration health based on resilience theory important reference restoration construction. To this purpose, study explores status Jialu River during 2011–2020 from perspective resilience. First, a comprehensive indicator system was established analysis rivers. Second, an index (URRI)...
Abstract Recent studies have indicated that widespread wastage of glaciers in western China has occurred since the late 1970s. By using digitized glacier outlines derived from 1970 inventory and Landsat satellite data 1990/91 to 2001, we obtained area changes about 278 with a total 2711.57 km 2 heavily glaciated west Kunlun Shan (WKS) northern Tibetan Plateau (TP). Results indicate prevailing characteristic variation is ice wastage, decreased by 10 (0.4% area) between 2001. Both south north...
Coal has long fueled human civilizations. The history of systematic coal fuel exploitation been traced back to the late third millennium before present (post-2500 B.P.). Although sporadic combustion for was reported in some prehistoric archaeological sites, evidence 2500 B.P. remains lacking. Here, we report comprehensive understanding earliest at Jirentaigoukou site Xinjiang, northwestern China, ~3600 main body witnessed bituminous coals, illustrating a complete chaîne opératoire with...
