  • complexes, based on ceramics and metalware trades, sit alongside agricultural systems embracing both arable and grassland specialisms. These varied landscapes are both products and reflections of many histories. This atlas includes an array of specially

  • The article focuses on the ethical issues raised by the practicalities of fieldwork in development. It highlights some of the problems of conducting research in the global South for both development workers and students on fieldtrips.

  • The United Kingdom is now entering a period of curriculum change. In the article it is argued that an appeal made solely to tradition will not do and that we will need recourse to strong and carefully considered educational aims relating to both

  • , due to their high magnitude or low frequency of occurrence, can be seen as an exception (e.g., natural disasters). The importance of geomorphosites is relative to their size, rarity and duration, which depend on both the frequency and the magnitude

  • The aim of the paper is to show the value of doing single-site ethnography in the field of transmigration studies. It concentrates on migrants' personal experiences of living in-between two countries. The A. shows how both the relationality

  • Globalism can be defined as a mode of thought deriving from the practice of thinking globally, both literally and figuratively. Globalism not only informs major trends within governance and economics. It also informs environmental issues, not least

  • in both cases the changes described have striking visible impact on the landscape and significant flow-on effects, some of them intangible and unquantifiable, on the well-being of the people who inhabit these landscapes. These cases present the two ends

  • The article explores the origins and development of fieldwork as a traditional part of student's geographical education in British schools. The non-linear nature of the developmental process is attributed to the multiple influences from both inside

  • show a high variability of annual gully retreat rates both between gullies and between observation periods. The varying influences of land use and human activities on runoff production and connectivity play a dominant role in these study areas, both

  • This paper analyses the statistical parameters of the grain size distributions of soils of South Tunisia where different landscapes coexist, with a graduation from semi-arid to arid and including both natural surfaces and agricultural or pastoral
  • areas. Two different methods were used : the logarithmic method of moments and the use of a combination of log-normal statistical functions. Both methods underline the ubiquitous and dominant presence of a very fine sand population, very well sorted

  • The AA. investigated the effect of vegetation on both soil aggregate stability and shear strength (through direct shear tests) in former croplands converted to vegetated erosion protection areas within the context of China's sloping land conversion
  • . As herbaceous vegetation was more efficient than trees in improving aggregate stability, it is suggested that mixtures of different plant functional types would improve soil conservation on slopes, by reducing both surface water erosion and shallow substrate

  • in the next couple of decades, changes are expected in both hydrological regime and delta dynamics. On one hand, the runoff showed a closer connection with the regional precipitation and ENSO in the post-dam period (1993–2005) than in the pre-dam period (1950
  • –1993). Such a relationship is expected to be even closer when more dams are completed. On the other hand, both daily maximum and minimum water levels on the delta plain have shown an abrupt drop since the end of 1994. This reduced water-level gradient

  • The past decade has seen a remarkable resurgence in the intellectual interplay between geography and the humanities in both academic and public circles. The metaphors and concepts of geography now permeate literature, philosophy, and the arts
  • . Concepts such as space, place, landscape, mapping and territory have become pervasive as conceptual frameworks and core metaphors. This volume contains 30 research essays by scholars both within and outside academic geography. It is arranged in sections

  • property investment in the hotel sector. The paper shows how the tourism industry changed qualitatively during this longer period, by considering the trajectory of the Irish hotel sector, and examining both the changing geography of overseas tourist origins
