In the present work we study the relationship between population allocation and the combined effects of urban size and energy consumption, for two given areas and through a major part of the twentieth century. Along these lines a general application model is laid down which relates city-growth rates to initial inhabitants and to exosomatic energy increment, the deviations from it showing order in space and time; as shown in a series of maps which hint at unaccounted socioeconomic factors. The study of the maps by means of spectral analysis allows finding patterns which reinforce over time, in such a manner that spatial frequencies can be determined whose weight increases up so granting surface evolution estimation. |
