Etude de l'application concrète de ce concept aux monts Usambara en Tanzanie, qui possède un riche écosystème forestier, et dont la population se tourne de plus en plus vers la forêt pour ses moyens d'existence. Les A.A. étudient l'application de
Ouvrage destiné à des étudiants de cartographie et autres professionnels qui ont à choisir une projection à des fins spécifiques. En 19 chapitres il donne principes et méthodes pratiques plutôt que la description de quelque 50 projections existantes
; le chapitre 10 décrit 3 projections (Lambert, Ptolémée, Mercator); d'autres chapitres sont consacrés aux projections pour cartes marines, à la projection Mercator transverse, à photogrammétrie et télédétection, aux autres méthodes de transformation
Rural development is described as a series of historical layers of economic development and policies. Since 1945 there have been three successive national policy projects in Finland, with different rural impacts : the settlement project; the project
of the industrial welfare state; and the emerging project of « new rural policy ». The paper focuses on the two periods of transformation from one project to the next.

This book is a product of a research program on livelihood strategies in dry areas and a culmination of five doctoral dissertation projects, all part of the so-called SALPA (Semi-Arid Lands Projects). All five research projects were concerned
The local climate is described by using models coupled to form larger units. The work has a geographical approach in which the surface properties are the most important parameters. One example is from the project on a local climatological model
for prediction of air and road surface temperatures along road stretches, where five geographical factors are primarily considered. The other is from an urban climatological project and deals with the relation between land use, urban structure and local climate.
Description of an interdisciplinary science project that includes a geographical dimension. Students from two different schools and very diverse backgrounds grow crops together in a vacant lot in Denver, Colorado. - (DWG)
of maximum temperatures above a selected threshold. The relationships are extrapolated and used to estimate the frequency in the new climatic conditions projected by general circulation models.
