Theoretische Grundlagen der Arealstrukturanalyse. (Theoretical fundamentals of area structure analysis)
Areal structure analysis ; Espace ; Généralités sur la géographie ; Méthodologie ; Paysage ; Structure spatiale
Areal structure analysis is a general method to investigate our natural environment. It is based on the knowledge of the general specific laws governing the structure formation of the landscape sphere. (HL).
A palya-analizis alkalmazasa a területi kutatasokban. (Application of path analysis in regional research)
Analyse multivariée ; Cluster analysis ; Généralités sur la géographie ; Hongrie ; Mathématique ; Méthodologie ; Recherche régionale ; Type de peuplement
The brief description of the method is followed by a possible application (for the establishment of types of settlements in Hungary). The subjectivity of factor-analyses can be reduced by path analysis.
Geography and spatial analysis: evolution and outlook II
Expansion method ; Geographical thought ; Modelling ; Quantitative geography ; Research technique ; Social sciences ; Spatial analysis ; Theory
Spatial analysis is the geographical counterpart of trends, and the product of revolutions that encompass a wide time horizon. Spatial analysis and the quantitative revolution in geography have been concerned with the development and validation
of theory, and with the application of mathematical and stochastic formalisms. The A. describes the positive developments of spatial analysis and presents the technique and the paradigm of the expansion method.
Meta-analysis of environmental issues in regional, urban and transport economics
Meta-analysis is concerned with the formal analysis of results and findings of scientific studies. The kinds of policy or scientific study which are suitable for a meta-analysis are considered. Application of traditional statistical meta-analysis
to case studies in the field of environmental economics is potentially more intricate than in many other areas of economics. Meta-analysis is a potentially useful way of supplementing knowledge in a relatively speedy and cost-effective way.
Analysis of transportation networks in GIS for research in human geography
Geographical information system ; Methodology ; Spatial analysis ; Transport ; Transport network
The purpose of this study is to gain insight into the usefulness of techniques for network analysis in the context of socio-spatial analysis using GIS, and into the technical and practical aspects of the application of network analysis within GIS
Principal component analysis of distributive characteristics of precipitation in Northeast China.
(1961-1978) ; Analyse en composantes principales ; Chine ; Chine, nord-est ; Cluster analysis ; Distribution ; Géographie de l'Asie ; Précipitation ; Régionalisation climatique
Based on the results of principal component analysis applied to data of 35 stations for 1961-1978, a dynamic investigation into the factors and processes accounting for the main patterns of precipitation deviation and the changing time
characteristics in them are attempted. A climatic regionalization based on distributive patterns of precipitation is made with the results of cluster analysis. (TNC).
Morphostructural analysis and geomorphological development of the Nedvědička River valley near Pernštejn
The field research was complemented by morphometric analysis and by study of airborne photos. Main results of morphostructural analysis and an analysis of joint and fault tectonics are presented. Special attention was laid upon genetic relationship
Geomorphological applications of cosmogenic isotope analysis
Bibliography ; Dating ; Erosion rate ; Geochemistry ; Geomorphology ; Isotope analysis ; Mass movement ; Weathering
The AA. focus on the geomorphological applications of in situ-produced cosmogenic isotope analysis. The past decade has seen a rapid growth in applications of cosmogenic isotope analysis to a wide range of geomorphological problems
A climatic regionalization of the Tibet (Xizang) Autonomous Region (TAR) is developed based on a multivariate analysis of temperature and precipitation records of two data sets from the periods 1971-1980 and 1980-1989. Cluster analysis, factor
analysis and discriminant analysis were followed up. The results of the multivariate statistical analysis were compared with traditional classification schemes published by the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS). For temperature zonation and, in particular
Concepts of space, understanding in human geography, and spatial analysis
Concept ; Determinism ; History of geography ; Place ; Space ; Spatial analysis ; Territory
The intellectual possibilities of spatial analysis now seem to be exhausted. Its view of place was flawed and its vision very partial. Concepts of territory, place, locality, spatial division of labor proved elusive. The A. wants to conceptualize
his reconstruction of the role that space plays by identifying the particular model of science to which spatial analysis belongs. Spatial analysis needs to be understood as an intellectual movement in a particular place at a particular time.
The research underlying this Ph.D. thesis concerns the development of procedures for evaluating predefined classification techniques for spatial data. The definition of fuzzy sets and the analysis of fuzzy series are proposed as tools
for the sensitivity analysis of spatial data in predefined classes. Several measures can be used to provide quality information that reflects the risk associated with the straightforward application of Boolean classes. The correct and unambiguous communication

Climatic classification of Saudi Arabia : an application of factor-cluster analysis
Arid area ; Climate ; Climate classification ; Cluster analysis ; Factor analysis ; Multivariate analysis ; Saudi Arabia
This study is aimed to be a contribution to climatic regionalization of Saudi Arabia. The data used here have been obtained from 56 meteorological stations. The results obtained by a multivariate factor-cluster analysis are compared with those
