Archiving Living Historical Narratives With Youth Participatory Action Research, Leah Panther, Elizabeth Burbridge, Robbie Barber, Rosi Sanchez Aug 2024

Archiving Living Historical Narratives With Youth Participatory Action Research, Leah Panther, Elizabeth Burbridge, Robbie Barber, Rosi Sanchez

Georgia Library Quarterly

As part of an interdisciplinary place-based summer program, the three adults and nine youth explored local communities as a co-researchers, seeking to preserve and sustain their community’s literacies, histories, and stories. Youth co-researchers led the data collection, analysis, and creation of archival resources to capture community literacies, histories, and stories that expanded beyond traditional print-centric resources and archival collections management systems. From our youth co-researchers we learned: (1) prioritizing people as archival sources, (2) living historical narratives lead to critical readings of historical artifacts, and (3) public digital composing practices with historical narratives and historical artifacts. The implications result in …

Identifying Driving Factors Of Inundation Susceptibility In Thailand With The Frequency Ratio Method, Zachary Zoet, Jim Wilson Jul 2024

Identifying Driving Factors Of Inundation Susceptibility In Thailand With The Frequency Ratio Method, Zachary Zoet, Jim Wilson

The Geographical Bulletin

Inundation models tend to cover geographically small areas at large-scales. Inconsistencies in research design arising from data classification methods and consensus about unit of analysis, and agreement on the choice of a consistent modeling method can lead to confusion in the selection of appropriate models for different inundation scenarios. To address these concerns, this study aims to expand on the Frequency Ratio Method, using 13 quantitative and qualitative variables, as a generalizable method that can be applied consistently across larger administrative areas such as the province. The ultimate product of this is a Flood Susceptibility Index (FSI), which can be …

A Discussion On The Impact Of Covid-19 To Industrial Location And Theimplications For Location Studies, Yiwei Jin, Ryan James Jul 2024

A Discussion On The Impact Of Covid-19 To Industrial Location And Theimplications For Location Studies, Yiwei Jin, Ryan James

The Geographical Bulletin

The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted supply chains and caused wide market disorders. Its disastrous impact on the world economy exposed the vulnerability of globalized production systems and led to discussions on the responses to such a crisis. These responses, including a new global spatial organization of supply chains, challenged our conceptual understanding, assumptions, and application of location theory in the spatial organization of economic activities. Through reviewing the literature, we outlined the pandemic’s profound economic disruption and identified firms’ applicable responsive strategies through Industry 4.0 solutions and management adaptions. Then based on the responses of technological upgrading we speculated possible changes …


A Geographic Index Of Natural Hazard Vulnerability In The United States, Seth Kannarr, Alan W. Black Jul 2024

A Geographic Index Of Natural Hazard Vulnerability In The United States, Seth Kannarr, Alan W. Black

The Geographical Bulletin

Beyond cultural ties and economic demands, considerations of the conditions of the natural environment may play a role in determining which U.S. state to reside within. Every year, millions of people suffer from the effects of natural hazards such as avalanches, blizzards, earthquakes, extreme cold, extreme heat, flooding, hurricanes, severe thunderstorms, tornadoes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, and wildfires. The recorded actual occurrence and frequency of these natural hazards, in addition to public perception of the danger of individual natural hazards, shapes an idea of relative concern for these natural hazards. In this study we combine actual hazard occurrence data recorded from …


Forging A Career In Hazards Research: Gilbert White’S Influence, Burrell Montz Jul 2024

Forging A Career In Hazards Research: Gilbert White’S Influence, Burrell Montz

The Geographical Bulletin

I discovered Geography while at Mary Washington College (now the University of Mary Washington) in 1969 – long, long ago. Having no idea what I wanted to major in, I happened into a geography class that I absolutely loved, and that was it. At the time, I had no idea where it would lead me. After my undergraduate days, I went to Oklahoma State University for my Masters’ degree. I wish I could say that I had researched numerous MS programs and chose Oklahoma State. However, it was the only program to which I applied, chosen because it offered an …


Geographers As Higher Education Leaders In A Post Covid Environment, M. Duane Nellis Jul 2024

Geographers As Higher Education Leaders In A Post Covid Environment, M. Duane Nellis

The Geographical Bulletin

Higher education leaders in the post COVID environment are faced with ever increasing pressures related to enrollment volatility, demands for new learning paradigms including the impact of artificial intelligence (AI), cost efficiency expectations, and more dramatic external forces and political scrutiny. The complexity of pressures facing higher education leaders is making it more and more challenging to have longer term tenures in top level leadership roles. At the same time undergraduate and graduate students aspiring to have careers in higher education should realize that geographers, based on the core aspects of their discipline and my experiences over many years as …


Dr. Geographer Or: How I Learned To Think Spatially And Love Maps, Randy Bertolas Jul 2024

Dr. Geographer Or: How I Learned To Think Spatially And Love Maps, Randy Bertolas

The Geographical Bulletin

Most people measure their lives by time. How much, how long, how soon it will be over. I always think of life in terms of space and place. How to get to some place, how long a distance to that place, what it will be like at that place when I disembark. There are many reasons for approaching and entering the field of geography. Few of us can pinpoint the moment our love for geography began. I can. It was the day someone gave me a map.
