摘要
近十几年来,过程研究在陆地表层系统科学研究中的地位越来越重要。陆地表层系统的复杂性为地理过程研究带来了诸多困扰和挑战,合理有效的方法是取得进展的关键之一。该文概述自然地理过程研究的基本方法,并综述相关综合的研究方法;包括格局—过程综合、时—空过程综合、不同地理要素过程综合的方法;在此基础上,指出目前过程研究在方法上的三大难点,即人为-自然相互作用的辨识与定量化方法、模型综合与选择、尺度转换。全球变化研究的兴起以及相关学科与技术的发展为自然地理过程研究带来了机遇。总之,陆地表层系统自然地理过程研究方法呈微观化、层次化、现代化、模型化和综合化的趋势,而且方法的创新是不可忽视的关键环节。
Earth surface process study has being more and more important in the earth surface system since the last ten years.However,the complexity of earth surface system brings much difficulty in the research of physical geographical process study.How to make full use of rational and effective research methods is one of key points to unveil physical geographical processes.By the method of literature summary,the author gave an overview on the basic research methods of geographical process,and elaborated on the integrated methods,including pattern-process comprehensive research and spatial-temporal coupling research and element-element interaction.On the basis of the methods review,three difficult problems on process study had been pointed out：1） identifying and quantifying the effectiveness of human factors and natural factors,2） synthetic modeling and rationally choosing models and 3） scales transformation.Luckily,the environment problems have attracted more and more attention,and world technology is developing fast,which is a good chance for the development of geography.Generally speaking,the research methods of geographic processes turn on following trends：microcosmic,hierarchical,modernization,modeling and comprehensive.Importantly,method innovation is necessary and essential.
