This article traces how young Muslim and Buddhist Ladakhis in Ladakh’s Leh District are constituted as a category and site of territorial potential, and how they navigate and elude this positioning. I suggest that parents, political actors
and religious leaders conceive of the young as crucial to the constitution of future territories. This makes their bodies a site of intense anxiety and regulation, as well as hope and potential. I offer the concept of generational vertigo, a mixture
of apprehension and anticipation regarding the future, and suggest that attending to how and why this vertigo is manifest provides a way to think through relationships between young people, time and territory. The future is located in the volatile bodies of young

The article addresses patterns of spatial inequality for the life chances of young people in an industrialised rural area in Flanders (Belgium). Two patterns of inequality are studied. The first is an inherited pattern of inequality between
rural context the diffuse pattern has a more detrimental effect on the integration of poor young households than a relative concentration in deprived villages.
The Holocene development of the Young Coastal Plain of Suriname
A new series of 19 radiocarbon dates from the Holocene Young Coastal plain in Suriname fits into the picture of a rapid sea-level rise in this area until about 6000 B.P. From 6000 B.P. onward the sea-level remained essentially at its present
position. Indication for a higher position of the sea-level at about 6500 B.P. are inconclusive. From about 6500 B.P. onward the marine influence in the interior part of the Young Coastal Plain diminished, but some marine oscillations were registered
. The available evidence is too limited to permit pertinent conclusions about the regional occurrence of marine fluctuations. From an analysis of the younger Holocene development in the Hertenrits area it is concluded that a new subdivision has to be established
Reconceptualising temporality in young lives : exploring young people's current and future livelihoods in AIDS-affected southern Africa

This paper explores links between the impacts of AIDS and young people's livelihood prospects in two villages, one in southern Malawi and the other in the mountains of Lesotho. Drawing on the concept of livelihood trajectories, it focuses
on the ways in which young people respond to both the immediate sustenance requirements of themselves and their households and their need to accrue assets for future livelihoods. . Beyond addressing empirical questions concerning the impacts of AIDS

Migration and unemployment duration among young adults
Standard job search predictors (labor force experience, personal characteristics and economic conditions) are included as control variables alongside measures of migration in a Weibull hazard model. Young adults who migrated while unemployed had
Early stages of podzolisation in young aeolian sediments, western Jutland
Soil formation in young aeolian sediments covered with pine and spruce was studied in an afforestation area in western Jutland, at Hvidbjerg Klitplantage, Thy District. The investigations have shown that in a cool temperate climate podzolised soils

High-resolution modeling of the advance of the Younger Dryas ice sheet and its climate in Scotland
This paper presents results of a numerical model constrained by empirical data in an effort to elucidate the environmental and climatic conditions which prevailed across Scotland during the Younger Dryas Stade. It is a quasi-three-dimensional, time
Accelerator-mass-spectrometer ages for the Younger Dryas event in Atlantic Canada
The AA. present the first accelerator-mass-spectrometer (AMS) 14C dates from Atlantic Canada, at or close to the boundaries of this late glacial cooling, from six sites in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. The results place the timing of the Younger

The AA. review some of the latest Quaternary paleoenvironmental changes in the Japan Sea, and discuss possible mechanisms linking sea level change driven primarily by North Atlantic events and a Younger Dryas-type oscillation in the northwest
Young dry grassland ecosystems in Denmark : development in soil nutrient pools and root characteristics
This paper explores the soil nutrient pools of 14 young dry grasslands and compares them to the nutrient pools on heathlands, forested and agricultural land. On 2 sites, the plant species composition is compared to characteristic species for the EU
