The Translucent Fortress: Improving The Design Of Rural Domestic Violence Shelters, Owen Baker Phillips
The Translucent Fortress: Improving The Design Of Rural Domestic Violence Shelters, Owen Baker Phillips
Bachelor of Architecture Theses - 5th Year
Domestic violence is a nationwide social plague that effects millions of women each year and has increased in severity since Covid-19 (2020-2022). In the state of Georgia, 37.4% of women report experiencing some sort of physical violence by an intimate partner (NCADV, 2020). Severity and frequency of domestic violence increases drastically if the victim is living in a rural location. Qualitative studies conducted in Iowa, North Carolina, and Virginia all report that on average, women living in rural areas report 150% more domestic violence experiences at a higher severity than their urban counterparts and must travel on average 300% further …

Instant Lawn: Sod Farming In Oregon, Brian Dyck
Instant Lawn: Sod Farming In Oregon, Brian Dyck
The Geographical Bulletin
I n the past, the term the "sod farmer" usually referred to the Midwest farmer of the 1800's tilling the stiff prairie soils without the aid of advanced technology and scientific knowledge. Then about twenty five years ago, beginning in the Midwest, the term began to take on a new meaning. It referred to the development of a new agricultural industry, the commercial production of sod for lawns in residential and recreational areas, industrial parks and in the beautification of freeway and highway systems. The sod industry is emerging in Oregon. Its development and prospects can be understood by examining …

Residential Subdivisions: Underlying Themes And Associated Forms, Christopher D. King, Geoffrey Wall
Residential Subdivisions: Underlying Themes And Associated Forms, Christopher D. King, Geoffrey Wall
The Geographical Bulletin
Land is one of the most important resources available to man. Man's activities take place upon the land and his buildings are, of necessity, firmly rooted in the ground. The way in which these buildings are arranged has changed through time in response to the changing aspirations of society. Perhaps the most basic use of the land is residential. We spend most of our time at home and the environment in which we dwell influences our performance in all phases of life. In urban situations the means of utilizing the land resource is the process of land subdivision. The term …
An Assessment Of Reilly's Model Of Consumer Behavior, Patricia L. Drews
An Assessment Of Reilly's Model Of Consumer Behavior, Patricia L. Drews
The Geographical Bulletin
All human behavior occurs in space and can therefore be studied in a manner that emphasizes the locational components of that behavior. One tenent fundamental to spatiallyfocused studies is that decisions related to spatial behavior are perceived as rational. This paper exam'ines a model of a particular type of spatial behavior involving decisions-the shopping behavior of rural people when buying retail goods or services that are relatively ubiquitous. William J, Reilly's law of retail gravitationl and the related breaking-point equation, derived mathematically from Reilly's law and explicitly stated byPaul D. Converse and associates2 , provide a model that predicts which …
The City At The Bottom Of Lake Michigan, Lawrence G. Wolf
The City At The Bottom Of Lake Michigan, Lawrence G. Wolf
The Geographical Bulletin
The New York Times, Sunday, February 17, 1974, reported a subterranean heat source extending from Mexico to above the Salton Sea. If subterranean geothermal sources can be gotten out of the air over the Salton Sea, what next? A week later a radio announcer was heard saying a balloonist was lost over the ocean below Morocco. If the ocean is now beneath Morocco, no wonder he was lost! Journalists are not the only ones living in an unreal world. The United Nations and the Population Reference Bureau end the North American continent at the Rio Grande! The continents of North …
The Search For Spatial Theories: On The Role Of Conceptual And Computational Models In Geographic Research, Daniel A. Griffith
The Search For Spatial Theories: On The Role Of Conceptual And Computational Models In Geographic Research, Daniel A. Griffith
The Geographical Bulletin
At present academic inquiry is guided by various research paradigms, the most popular ones being those affiliated with metaphysics, phenomenology and positivism, while the literature to date lacks an explicit structural typology identifying and interrelating these formats. As a result, numerous peculiar classification schemes have been created. For example, Kerlinger indicates that reesearch in general is comprised of three different modes, namely behavioral, historical and methodological~ Harvey, following ' Hempel, distinguishes between deductive-nomological and inductive-systematization, viewing the hypothetico-deductive system as a special case of this former type2 Olsson talks about formal as opposed to substantive research~ And Relph, exemplifying a …
Geographic Research And International Trade, J. Harold Leaman
Geographic Research And International Trade, J. Harold Leaman
The Geographical Bulletin
At the present time, the geographic and economic studies which have examined various aspects of international trade have been mainly concerned with identifying the patterns which exist. Very little attention has been given to the processes which may have created the patterns. In fact, given the present state of research, we seem to be in a weak position to answer questions which relate to the processes which have created the present form of international trade. Geographic research in international trade can' be examined by looking at three problem areas. A brief summary of work done in these three areas will …

Development Through The Domestication Of Animals: The Case Of The Musk Ox And The Eland, James L. Kelly
Development Through The Domestication Of Animals: The Case Of The Musk Ox And The Eland, James L. Kelly
The Geographical Bulletin
In recent years a determined effort has been made to domesticate new animals with most attention focusing on the eland, which is native to the arid and semi-arid areas of southern and eastern Africa, and the musk ox of arctic North America.1 The underlying purpose of these efforts is to develop lands that are currently either poorly used or not used at all. The natural habitats of the musk ox and the eland are areas plagued by cold temperatures or aridity. These regions have resisted man's attempts at agriculture. Even grazing of domestic livestock has been difficult because of harsh …
Learning Topographic Map Use Through Simulation, Russell L. Stubbles
Learning Topographic Map Use Through Simulation, Russell L. Stubbles
The Geographical Bulletin
A simulation game designed to facilitate learning to read and to use topographic maps was tested among sample groups of college undergraduates and high school seniors. The board game, "Natural Disaster," permits two to four students to participate in property location decisions, based on their understanding of natural hazards which are to be inferred from the topographic map's contours and locations of particular places. A randomizing procedure assigned the students to one of two treatments, the simulation game or a lecture-discussion, both of which covered the same substantive material. After pretesting, the appropriate treatments were administered to the students, and …
Military Geography: An Investigation Of Qualification, Bruce G. Graves
Military Geography: An Investigation Of Qualification, Bruce G. Graves
The Geographical Bulletin
Comprehension of the meaning of military geography is far more complex than it first appears. Traditionally military geography loosely encompasses the whole field of geographic activity required for the direction of organized military forces. The term "military" includes activities by which man performs characteristics that are generally referred to as soldierly in practice. The weight of this definition is magnified by the importance of strategy exercised at a given time. Scholars who perceive a sub-discipline as having a distinctive characteristic that is basically a sub-division of a whole field of academic study, may at first glance, see a direct relation …
The Development Of The Russian Iron And Steel Industry, James E. Rowe
The Development Of The Russian Iron And Steel Industry, James E. Rowe
The Geographical Bulletin
The original base of the Russian iron and steel industry was located near Tula which is situated in the Central Industrial region. The smelting of small deposits of local iron ore was begun with the utilization of charcoal made from the surrounding forests. A secondary region developed near Lake Onega in the northwestern section of Russia. The local availability of iron are and charcoal and a nearby market were major factors in the establishment of this early center of production. During the reign of Peter the Great in the early 18th century a considerably greater development of ferrous metallurgy took …
The Mormon State Of Deseret: A Study In Political Geography, Lawrence R. Handley
The Mormon State Of Deseret: A Study In Political Geography, Lawrence R. Handley
The Geographical Bulletin
On July 24, 1847, the vanguard of the Mormon migration reached the valley of the Great Salt Lake. By December, 1849, the Mormon population had increased to over 8,000, and was spread over 26 settlements from Ft. Bridger west to near Carson City, and from Ogden south to Manti. Within two and a half years the Mormons had established the foundation of their theo-democratic kingdom in the Great Basin. This presentation will deal with the Mormon's expansion between 1847 and 1851, and the political unit, the "territory" and "state" of Deseret, that was an attempt to claim the Great Basin …
The Political Geography Of The Marine Environment, Robert W. Smith
The Political Geography Of The Marine Environment, Robert W. Smith
The Geographical Bulletin
The paucity of research .articles by geographers on the political and planning aspects of the marine environment is evident from review of the geographical literature. It is undoubtedly true that there are some geographers who are involved at all levels of policy making in this region, but the fruits of their efforts have not been made available to a professional audience - fifteen articles in three major U.S. geographical journals in the past 16 years is not very commendable. Since 1958 (the year of the first Geneva Law of the Sea Conference), only five articles have appeared in the Annals …

Perception Of Climate In North Carolina, Jeffrey T. Lutz
Perception Of Climate In North Carolina, Jeffrey T. Lutz
The Geographical Bulletin
Geographers strive for a better understanding of how man perceives the world in which he lives. Environmental perception is a strategic concern within geography; and climate is an integral factor influencing man's responses to the complex environment. This study focuses on climatic perception, which constitutes an integral aspect of environmental awareness. Much work has been done in the field of environmental perception. Studies have dealt with the environmental in general, the perception of weather terminology and forecasting effectiveness, and specific climatic extremes or hazards such as flood and drought. However, research concerning the perception of general climatic conditions is lacking. …

Factors Affecting Distribution Of Cattle In India, E. Dayal
Factors Affecting Distribution Of Cattle In India, E. Dayal
The Geographical Bulletin
The problem of surplus cattle population in India has been widely discussed. The low yield of milk and the roaming cattle everywhere, even in the cities, give an idea of surplus cattle population, and have led to the general izations made about the irrational wastefulness of the large cattle numbers. However, the usefulness of cattle in India should not be judged only in terms of milk yield, because cattle contribute to the prosperity of the farmer in more important ways than by providing milk. The basic question of why the large cattle population is felt to be necessary must be …

This issue's "Comments" should probably be entitled "Odds and Ends". Many things come to mind, and a few are recorded here. In a recent issue we invited your attention to the Congress review of some NSF Teacher Education and curriculum development activities. Congress won. No money has been budgeted for Teacher Centered Programs. After having worked in these types of activities most every year since 1960, I view the decisions with mixed emotions. It was the conclusion of our staff that we did some good in these progr~ms. I visited many exparticipants in their schools, talked with their colleagues and …
