The changes in the southwestern part of the Chaouia plain, between Casablanca and Azemmour, form the backbone of this article. These changes which have known and still know this area which corresponds to the Oulja de la Chaouia are due to internal and external factors. This has engendered and increasingly engenders the appearance, consolidation and crystallization of territories, which are not yet truly urban, particularly in the coastal strip, but which are no longer totally rural, characterized by diversity and ubiquity. of its functions: agriculture, tourism, second home, industry. In this context, the urbanization of the rural territories of the …

This paper explores popular expectations for and meanings of the U.S. West's environmental future, as articulated through recent artistic representations of the Los Angeles's expansive water provision network. Weaving together material from participant observation and readings of creative works, I show how infrastructural imagery is used to index anxieties about a future of water scarcity. Presenting familiar, currently functional water infrastructures as ruins-in-the-making, these artists use the physical stuff of water provision networks to advance critiques of longstanding modes of development and the material basis of urban-rural relations in the U.S. West. Doing so, these imagined ruins draw the global-scale …

In this study aufeis features and their formation under natural conditions and in an urban surrounding in north-central Mongolia were investigated. Used methods included field observations, Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT) as well as analyses of satellite imagery and meteorological data. Aufeis formation is related to streams, springs, and ground conditions, particularly soil moisture; the formation of both spring aufeis and river aufeis follows a seasonal cycle. The meteorological data from 1969 to 2018 indicate that the mean annual air temperature (MAAT) increased by 2.6 °C, whilst no significant changes were observed for precipitation. Between 1992 and 2018, aufeis areas significantly …
