  • Queer ecology : nature, sexuality, and heterotopic alliances
  • Cemetery ; Difference ; Green space ; London ; Political ecology ; Post-humanism ; Public space ; Urban area ; Urban ecology
  • This interdisciplinary terrain is explored by using the example of an urban cemetery in North London as a starting point. Queer ecology may enrich our understanding of both urban materiality and the role of metaphors in urban theory. This idea

  • Network political ecology. Method and theory in climate change vulnerability and adaptation research
  • Adaptation ; Climatic change ; Farm ; India ; Irrigation ; Network ; Political ecology ; Rajasthan ; Scale ; Underground water ; Vulnerability
  • The paper argues for the development of network political ecology, drawing on the insights from regional political ecology and recent advancements in network theories of scale, to meet the challenges of investigating the meso-scale problem
  • of vulnerability and adaptation to climate change. Network political ecology, attentive to scale as socio-ecologically produced and grounded in a regional resource use system, is one such approach that fills this gap in middle-range theory necessary to understand

  • Relationship between ecological indicators and soil properties (in case of a wetland)
  • Applied ecology ; Biological indicator ; Geochemistry ; Hungary ; Physical geography ; Sedimentary sequence ; Soil ; Soil properties
  • The study focuses on applicability of soil related ecological indicators in small scale studies. Three soil related indices were studied along a hydromorph toposequence, such as Simon’s W, R and Soó’s N values. Simon’s T value also was applied
  • to compare applicability soil related ecological indicators with non-soil related ones for small areas. These values were determined on the basis of cenological measurement and compared with soil physical and chemical properties. Authors’ results suggest
  • that W values can be use only for small scale ecological indications. - (AM)

  • Ecology ; Environmental change ; Knowledge ; Man-environment relations ; Power ; Resilience ; Social change ; Social sciences ; Social theory
  • The concept of resilience in ecology has been expanded into a framework to analyse human-environment dynamics. The extension of resilience notions to society has important limits, particularly its conceptualization of social change. The paper argues
