Regions Of Risk: A Geographical Introduction To Disasters By Kenneth Hewitt, Taly D. Drezner
Regions Of Risk: A Geographical Introduction To Disasters By Kenneth Hewitt, Taly D. Drezner
The Geographical Bulletin
Regions of Risk is a comprehensive text that painstakingly describes how disasters and the threat of disasters shape and geographically alter communities and regions all over the world. In his introduction, Hewitt writes, "Any given risk or disaster event is distinguished by its geographic location and setting. These are important keys to the origins of danger, the forms of damage and whom they most affect."
Exploring Geographic Information Systems By Nicholas Chrisman, Eric Matranga
Exploring Geographic Information Systems By Nicholas Chrisman, Eric Matranga
The Geographical Bulletin
Rather than attempting to define the bounds and scope of geographic information, Chrisman provides an organizational framework that" . .. challenges the reader to participate in the exploration". Exploring Geographic Information Systems uses a nested set of interrelated issues to emphasize the need for users to think critically about the appropriate use of methods, tools, and data in GIS.
Physical Hydrology By S. Lawrence Ding-Man, Patricia J. Beyer
Physical Hydrology By S. Lawrence Ding-Man, Patricia J. Beyer
The Geographical Bulletin
As the public eye increasingly focuses on issues related to the use and quality of water, the science of hydrology expands from its position as an academic and engineering endeavor to one of prominance in people's everyday lives. With this expansion comes the need for education, not only for hydrologists and geomorphologists, but for biologists, botanists, earth scientists, climatologists, land managers, developers and policy makers. Water is a fascinating and complex substance: not only is water itself a resource, but it is also a main pathway for energy and chemical transfer in the Earth-atmosphere system.
Environmental Geography: Science, Land Use, And Earth Systems By William M.Marsh And John M. Grossa, Eric Matranga
Environmental Geography: Science, Land Use, And Earth Systems By William M.Marsh And John M. Grossa, Eric Matranga
The Geographical Bulletin
Environmental Geography is an introductory text for undergraduate instruction. Marsh and Grossa recognize a lack of geographic perspectives in such texts. They set as their task, building "on the traditional themes of geography". Concepts covered include environmental systems, principles of space, scale and distributions, and landscape as the result of human-environment interaction.

The Geography Of South Dakota. Edward By P. Hogan, Donald J. Berg
The Geography Of South Dakota. Edward By P. Hogan, Donald J. Berg
The Geographical Bulletin
Edward P. Hogan has done a considerable service for the people of South Dakota through writing The Geography of South Dakota, the first such volume in 78 years. It is a book that was long overdue, but such a project also needs the right person at the right place and the right time to author it.
The Heat/Humidity Quandary: A Case Study Of New England, Carl F. Ojala, William Babcock
The Heat/Humidity Quandary: A Case Study Of New England, Carl F. Ojala, William Babcock
The Geographical Bulletin
When the occasional heat wave occurs during summer, people often bemoan the unbearable temperature and humidity conditions. Most of us have heard, and maybe even used, the statement " 90°F. temperature and 90% relative humidity." This exceptional weather condition, based on popular confusion of the temperature/relative humidity concept, generally seems to be perceived as possible by most people. In this research, a 30- year archive approaching one million data sets for seven New England cities was examined to determine the validity of such an expression. Hourly summer temperature, dew point, and relative humidity data were analyzed. From 1961 to 1990 …
Contemporary Europe: A Geographic Analysis. (7th Edition) By William H. Berent-Sen, Editor, Wendy Shaw
Contemporary Europe: A Geographic Analysis. (7th Edition) By William H. Berent-Sen, Editor, Wendy Shaw
The Geographical Bulletin
Europe is a continent characterized by great complexity both physically and culturally. It is a fascinating place steeped in history yet seemingly in a state of con - stant flux. The region provides a challenge to authors who endeavor to present a comprehensive view of Europe. This book targets students in introductory col - lege courses and focuses on contemporary Europe. Each chapter has a different author, writing style, approach, and struc - ture that reflects that author's area of in - terest and expertise. Chapters are in - cluded that are topically focused such as those on population and …
The Geographic Society And Gamma Theta Upsilon At Arizona State University, Malcolm L. Comeaux
The Geographic Society And Gamma Theta Upsilon At Arizona State University, Malcolm L. Comeaux
The Geographical Bulletin
Throughout most of the history of Arizona State University (founded in 1885) there has been a strong student organization devoted to the study of geography and the state of Arizona . This organization was established early, and once established, it always existed. A club such as this one is particularly important to students, since belonging to a small group leads to comraderie and lifelong friendships, and it can be a valuable learning experience. One of the main goals of the geography student organization was always the taking offield trips, and such field trips are fondly remembered by ex-members. Prof. Fred …
Assessment Of The Growth, Nature, And Character Of Three Squatter Settlements In The Durban Functional Area, Kwazulu-Natal, South Africa, Hari P. Garbharran
Assessment Of The Growth, Nature, And Character Of Three Squatter Settlements In The Durban Functional Area, Kwazulu-Natal, South Africa, Hari P. Garbharran
The Geographical Bulletin
This paper examines the growth, nature, and character of three informal settlement complexes in the Durban Functional Region (DFR) in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. Informal settlements or jondolas have become a permanent feature of the South African landscape since democracy. During the apartheid era (1948 to 1994) these structures were temporary, existed in the shadow of metropolitan areas, and faced removal. The post-apartheid period has been characterized by an upsurge in the development of informal settlements especially around metropolitan areas. Restrictions imposed upon certain segments of the population since colonial times have been crushed. In some instances, t hese unplanned settlements …
Third World Development And Population: A Reflection, Engdawork Desta
Third World Development And Population: A Reflection, Engdawork Desta
The Geographical Bulletin
In a world of plenty, many countries continue to suffer from lack of basic necessities. Development might be a controversial issue, however, the reason for Third World countries remain underdeveloped is certainly not because of absence of resources or lack of know-how. The relationship between development and population might also be direct but it is not necessarily negative all the time. If the potentials of science and technology are released, most of the constraints of economic sustainability would probably be overcome within a few years.
A Brief History Of The Delta Zeta Chapter At South Dakota State University Brookings, South Dakota, Donald J. Berg
A Brief History Of The Delta Zeta Chapter At South Dakota State University Brookings, South Dakota, Donald J. Berg
The Geographical Bulletin
Delta Zeta Chapter at South Dakota State University in a direct sense grew out of the Alpha Rho Chapter at Saint Louis University in St. Louis, MO. There, Edward P. Hogan, who was a student at the time, had been active in the Chapter as its president. His wife, Joan M. Hogan, was also a member in the 1960s. Thethird person who would ultimately playa role in the formation of Delta Zeta was Lee A. Opheim, an instructor at Saint Louis University, who had joined the Mu Chapter at the University of Minnesota, Duluth in the 1950s.
Shanghai's Frontier: Pudong New Development Area, Hongyan Jia, Robert M. Ward
Shanghai's Frontier: Pudong New Development Area, Hongyan Jia, Robert M. Ward
The Geographical Bulletin
The Pudong New Development Area (east of Shanghai) is one of the more recent special economic zones to emerge in the People's Republic of China. It is being built with the experience gained during earlier developments along the eastern coastal area of China. Much of the infrastructure has been put into place and improved. Preferential policies have been awarded to investors which have expanded on those given previously. Since then, the Pudong New Development Area has not only boosted the economic development of Shanghai and the Yangtze River valley, but has also played an important role in China's overall progress …
Projections And Perceptions Editorial Comment: The Limits Of Convergence; Nature, Nurture, And Growth, Jeffrey D. Sachs
Projections And Perceptions Editorial Comment: The Limits Of Convergence; Nature, Nurture, And Growth, Jeffrey D. Sachs
The Geographical Bulletin
For the first time in history, almost all of the world's people are bound together in a global capitalist system. This momentous development forces us to think anew about the world economy. In the past, differences in policies across regions of the world resulted in vast differences in economic performance; in the future, policies are likely to be more similar. As a result, large parts of the developing world will narrow the income gap between themselves and richer nations. But this process of convergence, by itself, will go only so far. With or without markets, many developing countries will be …

"When I Was Young . .. "- Perceptions Of Past Winters By Elderly Residents Of Northwest Wisconsin, Michael J. Tronrud, D. E. Petzold
"When I Was Young . .. "- Perceptions Of Past Winters By Elderly Residents Of Northwest Wisconsin, Michael J. Tronrud, D. E. Petzold
The Geographical Bulletin
Young people today often hear their eIders talk about the severe winters oftheir youth, noting colder, snowier times in the past. A survey of elderly residents of NW Wisconsin documents their perceptions of past winters. The results of this survey were then related to an nual and decade mean winter temperature and snowfal l data from the same region for the period, 1920 to 1996. It appears that memories of the most severe winter weather are connected with childhood. A majority of respondents chose the 1930s as being the coldest decade in memory. In reality, it was not. Only one …

The Geographical Bulletin
The 1997-98 school year saw an increase in volunteering for GTU members. A new initiation criterion for members is to donate five hours for the semester at any of the many off campus sites that needed help. This is an activity sponsored through the Campus Volunteer Center and is a good way to offer community service. We hosted two successful canoe trips this year: the fall trip was on our own Evergreen Lake and the spring trip was on the Vermillion River. Our members, along with the Anthropology Club, continued to keep our ISU Nature Trail clean with regularly scheduled …
The Geography Of Kuwaiti Oil Transportation 1970-1980, Waleed Ai-Menais
The Geography Of Kuwaiti Oil Transportation 1970-1980, Waleed Ai-Menais
The Geographical Bulletin
The transportation of oil from Kuwait between the years 1970- 80, which was a period of relative political stability, is discussed. Based on physical, geopolitical and economic factors the country elected to use tankers rather than pipelines as did many other Gulf countries. During the period 1970- 80 the oil field to transport facilities, onshore and offshore rapidly expanded and technologically improved. Paralleling this active growth, oil tanker construction and capacity had increased. In recent years geopolitical circumstances in Kuwait and emerging Asian markets justify the option of tankers moving oil via the Gulf over pipeline transport to Mediterranean ports.
Latino Migration To Green Bay, Wisconsin In The 1990s, Marcelo Cruz
Latino Migration To Green Bay, Wisconsin In The 1990s, Marcelo Cruz
The Geographical Bulletin
This paper explores Latino urban migration to Green Bay, Wisconsin, an intermediate size city of approximately 100,000 people. According to the census of 1990 there were approximately 1,500 Latinos living in Brown County with 1,000 ofthese living in the city of Green Bay. By 1997, estimates of the Latino population in Green Bay are from 6,000 to 7,000. Such a growth rate makes Latinos the fastest growing minority group in the city. The paper explores the nature of the migration process within the spatial and temporal context of Latino presence in the major urban centers of Wisconsin, and analyzes settlement …

Wealth Generation In Metropolitan America: F.I.R.E. As Savior?, Darryl T. Cohen, Keith G. Debbage
The Geographical Bulletin
The current restructuring of the American economy from goods producing industry to service providing industry has been a focus of concern for many social scientists. While some argue in favor of the rapidly expanding service sector, pointing out that growth in services creates employment and generates income, others emphasize that many service sector jobs pay considerably less than comparable manufacturing sector jobs, which continue to be lost in many metropolitan areas. The Finance, Insurance and Real Estate (F.I.R.E.) industry in particular, is a branch of the service sector that is often associated with the generation of affluence and productivity. This …
The Relevance Of Gamma Theta Upsilon To Geography In The 1990s, James A. Tyner, Daniel Donaldson
The Relevance Of Gamma Theta Upsilon To Geography In The 1990s, James A. Tyner, Daniel Donaldson
The Geographical Bulletin
The status of geography has long been a concern to its practitioners. Efforts have been proposed to increase both the visibility and vitality of geography at all educational levels. These efforts include the activities of social organizations such as Gamma Theta Upsilon (GTU). This paper tests the hypothesis that geography departments with active chapters of Gamma Theta Upsilon, a geography honor society, will experience a greater increase in declared geography majors than will departments with inactive GTU chapters. Findings confirm our hypothesis, and suggest that Gamma Theta Upsilon, as a visible and active honor society on university campuses, does contribute …

Projections And Perceptions Editorial Comment: Has Land Use Development Lost Touch With The American Landscape? The Need For Geographers In Planning, William M. Marsh
The Geographical Bulletin
There is a predictable sameness creeping over the fact of the North American landscape. In the past several decades, highways, shopping centers, residential subdivisions and most other forms of development have taken on a remarkable similarity from coast to coast. Not only do they look alike, but modern developments also tend to function alike, including the way they relate to the environment; that is, in the way land is cleared and graded, streets are laid out, stormwater is drained, buildings are sited and designed, and landscaping is arranged. We know that this fa~ade of development masks an inherently diverse landscape …

Examining The Creative Process Of Visual Artists: A Phenomenological Study, Filiberto Vargas
Examining The Creative Process Of Visual Artists: A Phenomenological Study, Filiberto Vargas
Dissertations
Creativity fuels problem solving and innovation, driving both economic growth and individual success. Yet, many schools and organizations fail to nurture it. Today, there is a decline in creativity scores among U.S. students. This is concerning since many of these students will be the future leaders of organizations and communities. For this reason, this dissertation explores the creative process of visual artists to better understand how creativity can be cultivated. Visual artists' perspectives and sense-and-meaning-making processes offer a unique view of innovation and creativity. However, there is limited research on the creative processes of contemporary visual artists from culturally diverse …
