The Geography Of Same-Sex Families In Australia: Implications For Regulatory Regimes, Christopher Brennan-Horley, Andrew Gorman-Murray
The Geography Of Same-Sex Families In Australia: Implications For Regulatory Regimes, Christopher Brennan-Horley, Andrew Gorman-Murray
Christopher R Brennan-Horley
Knowledge of the geographical scope of same-sex families is useful in appealing for relationship and family formation rights. This article analyses the geography of same-sex families in Australia through a critical mapping exercise, offering geographical analysis as a means to assist with their human rights claims. While maps have been used to shore up political and legal power, ‘subversive’ maps can visually challenge dominant views and advance minority groups' constitutive and, distributional politics. We utilise 2006 Census data to map the distribution of same-sex couple family households across Australia, including variations by gender and dependent children. Same-sex families are widespread: …

A Coastal Environment Field And Laboratory Activity For An Undergraduate Geomorphology Course, Jean Ellis, Paul Rindfleisch
Jean Taylor Ellis
A field and laboratory exercise for an undergraduate geomorphology class is described that focuses on the beach. The project requires one day of fieldwork and two laboratory sessions. In the field, students measure water surface fluctuations (waves) with a pressure sensor, survey beach profiles, collect sediment samples, and observe the beach state. In the laboratory, students wash and dry sediments, complete a grain size analysis, and determine sediment volumes. Students produce a report that includes analysis of wave data and beach profiles and a discussion of their findings.
