Gasteromycetes are well adapted to long distance dispersal by the wind and thus occupy the maximal area corresponding to their ecological needs or are only limited by major dispersal barriers (oceanic for example). They thus provide a model
Using geographical terminology, it is possible to state that landscape is a manifestation of the geographical environment. However, in looking at the landscape one may in turn interpret what is going on in, and with, the environment. Thus, to learn
of the geographer and the architect thus appear complementary. - (BJ)
Anhydromorphic and hydromorphic saline soils resemble the surface water and the ground water type of soil formation, thus differ fundamentally in geomorphic position, geochemical accumulations and ecological properties and should be differentiated
Both the horizontal and vertical zonality are the most clearly outlined on the territory of the Soviet Union, thus from the North to the South it can be divided into spheres, belts, zones and subzones. (CK).
In Hungary about 40 per cent of village wage-earners are commuters, and thus residential function has become very important in the villages. Seven main types are identified according to the degree the village is able to meet the requirements
Several processes of oil and gas geology are studied in connection with plate-tectonical processes. Thus it becomes clear, that there is a distinct difference between the Paleozoic development of the Europian plate and the Mesozoic development. (HL).
The continental cratons are the most long-lived, almost permanent megafeatures of the Planet Earth, and thus preserve veneers of ancient duricrusted paleosols and shallow marine transgressions, thus, an alternation between thalassocratic
Numerous examples all along the Mediterranean coastline show that beach-rock frequently originates inside soft fossil holocene marine deposits and is exposed only when the coast recedes. The present beach often hides it during the summer, thus
, especially since the cementation process requires immobilization of the constitutive materials. Thus, as the coastline recedes, new slabs built up behind pre-existing ones.
The main aim of the work described here has thus been to gain an acquaintanceship with the changes in the spatial and functional structure of Poland's rural areas that accrued in the determining trends and dynamics to future changes, as well
as the possible directions of development of rural areas with particular attention being paid to the factors stimulating or holding up the development of non-agricultural socioeconomic activity. A further aim has thus been to attempt an assessment of the fuctions
these networks, certain tasks can be done for pay thus helping women in hardship to support their households. Whenever women contribute to the household's resources through the commercial practice of traditional jobs their submission to the family group
apparently increases, thus reducing the freedom they had under the traditional mutual help system controlled by the women's community.
This paper suggests the benefits of placing evaluation in a broader context of performance measures which reflects more fully the objectives of the policy and allows greater insights into comparative effectiveness and thus influences
Racial segregation was instituted at the foundation of East London and modified thereafter. Thus prior to the enactment of the Group Areas Act the city was highly segregated. - (AJC)
The establishment of a middle class suburb for Africans in Johannesburg in the 1940s and 1950s was closely linked to the concept that they were temporary residents. Thus freehold was withheld and only non-renewable 30 year leases offered. - (AJC)
Urban apartheid zonings in South Africa continued until the repeal of discriminary legislation. The apartheid city was thus virtually intact until June 1991. - (AJC)
advanced. Thus, new irrigation technology and modern methods of irrigation will play an important part in the achievement of improved irrigation efficiency.
The principles of alternative tourism can be applied in order to minimize negative environmental impacts. Diversionary opportunities can be promoted to diversify the tourism product, thus providing a nature-oriented alternative to resort-based
At a fundamental level, biotechnology is directed at manipulating energy flows, especially those in agriculture. Improved crop varieties, disease and pest control, as well as nutrient enhancement can be achieved by it. Biotechnology thus contributes
A method for temperature correction of electrical conductivity data based on regression analysis of the actual temperature/conductivity relationship of a number of water samples from natural streams is presented. The implications are thus especially
A strong component hierarchical lustering method combined with the proportional fitting procedure is applied to a matrix of interdistrict migration flows. Thus make possible to gain insight into the regional structure of Slovakia and to identify
Motivated by an idealized image of rural pastoralism, the technology needed to sustain the American lifestyle is increasingly rejected. The list of locally unacceptable land uses multiplies. Thus the search has quickened for alternative technologies
