摘要/Abstract

摘要： 本文对分布在中国16个不同行政区域的102个人群(汉族23个,少数民族79个)的人体发育指标—身高,应用地理信息系统(GIS)的空间分析功能和制图表达方法,对身高受地理环境因素影响的程度进行了综合分析。研究结果显示:随着地理纬度的升高,身高呈现逐渐增高的趋势。随着地区太阳总辐射量的增大,该地区的群体身高水平呈现增高的趋势;随着降雨量和湿度的增大,群体的身高水平呈现降低的趋势;随着地区平均风速指数的增加,身高亦呈现增高趋势。此外,研究还表明区域海拔和气压等因素对身高无明显影响。地理信息系统的技术与方法为分析人体身高发育受地理环境因素的差异性影响提供了新的技术手段和解决方案。

Abstract: This paper analyzes the geo-environmental factors effecting on the human stature, which were implemented in 102 populations (23 Han nationalities and 79 minority nationalities) distributed in 16 prefectures in China, using GIS spatial analysis function and the cartography method for the first time. The study results show that (1) The human body height increased with the latitude value increasing; (2) The human body height increased with the increasing of solar effective radiation; (3) the human population stature in region with higher rainfall and the higher percentage relative humidity is lower than other regions; (4) the average wind speed is a positive factor to the population stature; (5) the research results showed that the altitude value and air pressure value have no significant effect on human body height. Finally, it demonstrated that the GIS tools and function have great benefit to the human body growth research and it is a renovation among disciplinary intersection。
