A Geographic Study Examining The Major Elements Involved In The Rise Of Cotton Production In Southeast Missouri 1922-1925, Charles E. Hudson

Masters Theses

The delta area of Missouri comprises the seven counties in the southeastern part of the state. These counties form the only area in Missouri where cotton is widely produced. Although cotton was grown in the region as early as 1850, the delta area did not become a major cotton producer until 1922. For a number of years prior to 1922 certain elements, including soil and topography, climate, forest clearance, land drainage, and the influx of farmers prior to 1920, formed a potential favorable to large-scale cotton production, yet none occurred. For an increase in production to occur some element had …

An Analysis Of The Spatial Distribution And Location Of Ski Resorts In Southern Ontario, John E. Lewis

Theses and Dissertations (Comprehensive)

The number of skiers participating in the outdoor recreation activity of skiing has increased tremendously during the past twenty years. With increased amounts of leisure time, improved means of access and mobility, greater real incomes, new technology, and an increased desire to ski, the amount of skiing being done will continue to rise in the future.

The factors that have determined the development of existing ski resort facilities appear nebulous. Some of the ski resorts established in the past have resulted in economically successful operations while others have ended in a financial loss for the owners involved as well as …

An Investigation Of The Surface Temperature Distribution In The Detroit Region, Allen R. Smith

Masters Theses

Chapter I

Introduction

Climate and the City

Studies made of temperature in and around cities have shown the climate of the city to be anomalous in relation to its regional climate. The extent of this anomalous condition and the reasons for its occurrence vary from city to city and from season to season. So many variable factors are present in the generation or regeneration of heat within the city that no study has yet satisfactorily explained the total factors involved, or has indicated the percentage for which any one factor might be responsible. This being the case, the only objective …

An Outline For Physical Geography In The Secondary School, David S. Mellander

Masters Theses

The Need and The Purpose

Introduction

As the earth has become more densely populated, an understanding of the space relationships between man and his environment has become essential. In particular, man needs to understand the complex interrelationship between places, and the distinctive character of places.

Major functions of geographic instruction are to guide students into discovering the distribution of physical conditions, and the interrelationships which characterize such places, as well as those between man and his environment. No other discipline attempts to discover the wholeness, order and reason in the complex totality of the landscape.

Our Pet Population Explosion And Operation Spared, Kay Clausing

Pets Collection

All humane societies are dedicated to preventing cruelty and suffering. No society can effectively prevent cruelty unless it makes spaying compulsory for all females released for adoption and talks spaying to every owner of a female. Even if the home is a good one in every other respect, if a female is permitted to produce even one litter, the humane society is simply delaying or postponing cruelty. In fact, it is perpetuating it. When the female (which your society otherwise placed so carefully) has a litter, often its owners are not qualified to judge what constitutes a good home. In …

Land Utilization In The Allegan State Forest: A Historical Geography, Martin Lemerand

Masters Theses

Introduction

In Allegan County, Michigan, there exists an area of land known as the Allegan State Forest (Figs. 1 and 2). The Forest compromises 35,755 acres of land and is located just west of the city of Allegan.¹ It is an area primarily noted for its forestry, wildfire conservation, and recreational facilities. Before becoming a state forest and prior to the 1930's, this land passed through sequential occupance by Indians, pioneers, lumberman, and farmers. When the forest area was first settled, the land was abundantly covered with trees. The trees soon became the victims of the lumbermen's axe, and …

Geographic Potential Surfaces, Michael Munson

Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science

The attempt is made to trace the development of the surface potential with particular reference to the social sciences, especially geography. The geographic potential is derived from Newton's law, F = GMm/d" and is mathematically expressed and explained. The formula for the ,r potential at a single point or area, j, is ;~1(P;•P)" / d;;"'• Minnesota population potential for 1960 and 1930, and 1960 Minnesota income potentials have been calculated and mopped. The Twin Cities possess the peak potential for all three variables. Of prime importance to the understanding of geographic potentials is a knowledge of the underlying assumptions and …
