Abstract

Gibson’s (1979 Gibson, J. J. (1979/1986). The ecological approach to visual perception. New York: Psychology Press. (Original work published 1979) [Google Scholar]/1986) definition of ecological events suggests that they are different types of change. Weather events exemplify all three varieties that Gibson outlined and can: (1) change the layout of surfaces, (2) change the color or texture of surfaces, and (3) change surface existence. Wind can bring temporary and enduring changes at the ground surface. Clouds can affect visual experiences on the ground through the amount and type of sunlight that is available. Precipitation in the form of rain, ice, and snow can create, disrupt, deform, or destroy surfaces at or on the ground. In this way, weather can change both the optical characteristics of surfaces (e. g., texture, reflectivity, transparency) as well as the affordances of the surfaces (e.g., wetting of surfaces reduces contact friction; high winds change the ease of passing through the medium of air, etc.). We present a taxonomy of weather events based on Gibson’s (1979 Gibson, J. J. (1979/1986). The ecological approach to visual perception. New York: Psychology Press. (Original work published 1979) [Google Scholar]/1986 Gibson, J. J. (1979/1986). The ecological approach to visual perception. New York: Psychology Press. (Original work published 1979) [Google Scholar]) classification of terrestrial events and provide some suggestions for future research.

摘要

吉布森（1979 吉布森，JJ（1979/1986）。视觉感知的生态方法。纽约：心理学出版社。（1979年出版的原著） [谷歌学术]/ 1986）生态事件的定义表明它们是不同类型的变化。天气事件代表了Gibson概述的所有三个变体，并且可以：（1）改变表面的布局，（2）改变表面的颜色或纹理，以及（3）改变表面的存在。风能在地面上带来短暂而持久的变化。云会通过可用的阳光量和类型影响地面上的视觉体验。雨，冰和雪形式的降水会在地面或地面上形成，破坏，变形或破坏表面。这样，天气既可以改变表面的光学特性（例如，纹理，反射率，透明度），也可以改变表面的承受能力（例如，表面变湿会减少接触摩擦）；强风会改变通过介质的难易程度空气 等等。）。我们根据吉布森（1979年 吉布森，JJ（1979/1986）。视觉感知的生态方法。纽约：心理学出版社。（1979年出版的原著） [Google Scholar] /1986 吉布森，JJ（1979/1986）。视觉感知的生态方法。纽约：心理学出版社。（1979年出版的原著） [Google Scholar]）对地面事件进行分类，并为以后的研究提供一些建议。
