Changes in land use and land cover (LULC) are critical for evaluating global spatiotemporal trends, especially regarding climate change and urbanization. This study investigates the dynamics of Landsat surface temperature (LST) in response to LULC changes and their effects on the seasonal microclimate in Kasur District, Pakistan. Using the Google Earth Engine platform, we employed a random forest algorithm to detect LULC changes (cropland, forest, built-up, fallow, barren, and water) and analyze seasonal spectral indices from Landsat imagery for 1988, 2002, and 2022. Significant LULC changes were observed, including a 9.8% increase in built-up areas, a 4.2% decrease in cropland, …

Are Economic Gender Differences The Same Everywhere? Cross-Societal Comparisons In The Early 21st Century, Joyce P. Jacobsen
Are Economic Gender Differences The Same Everywhere? Cross-Societal Comparisons In The Early 21st Century, Joyce P. Jacobsen
Midwest Social Sciences Journal
Are gender differences in economic outcomes the same everywhere? Using the most recent available data (generally from the 2021–2023 period), I consider the patterns for these gender differences and provide an annotated list of statistical sources for students and researchers to use in exploring these differences. Overall, women still work less than men in paid work, work more than men in unpaid household work, and make less than men; however, these patterns have converged somewhat, with some narrowing of work and pay gaps relative to the last part of the 20th century, and with women rapidly closing the educational-attainment gap …

Economic Geography And The Unequal Development Of Regions By Jean-Claude Prager And Jacques-François Thisse., Anne M. Meltzer
Economic Geography And The Unequal Development Of Regions By Jean-Claude Prager And Jacques-François Thisse., Anne M. Meltzer
The Geographical Bulletin
Economic Geography and the Unequal Development of Regions seeks to discuss the major economic reasons for the stratification and variation of the spatial distribution of wealth. The role of cities and agglomerations are emphasized as vectors of economic development. The authors argue that the recent dropoff of the average global cost of transportation and communication is a main reason why economic development has been able to spread around the world to previously underdeveloped regions. Another recurring theme of this book is that, when looking at uneven development broadly, there is tremendous variation between regions. Therefore, there can be no blanket …
Sky-View Factor Estimation: A Case Study Of Athens, Georgia, Neil Debbage
Sky-View Factor Estimation: A Case Study Of Athens, Georgia, Neil Debbage
The Geographical Bulletin
A better understanding of the urban heat island (UHI) effect can be facilitated by accurately measuring urban geometry. One commonly utilized approach is to calculate the sky-view factor (SVF), which represents the proportion of the sky visible from a given location. The overall purpose of this study is to assess the spatial distribution of SVF values for various land use classes in Athens, GA. Since fish-eye lens imagery can effectively capture the complex nature of the urban canyon, I used a simplistic photographic methodology. I took fish-eye photographs within four land use classes (downtown, commercial, residential and rural/open space) and …
Using Music To Learn Geomorphology: An Undergraduate Experience, Casey D. Allen, Tyler J. Thompson, Matthew T. Hansen
Using Music To Learn Geomorphology: An Undergraduate Experience, Casey D. Allen, Tyler J. Thompson, Matthew T. Hansen
The Geographical Bulletin
As an alternative to traditional upper-level physical geography pedagogy (labs, quizzes, tests, papers, and occasional field exercises), this article outlines and analyzes a 10-week large-group research endeavor conceived and executed by undergraduates where they explored aspects of project construction, methods, analyses, and group dynamics. These experiences are then critiqued from both instructor- and student-based perspectives. We suggest that pedagogies linking physical geography and traditional humanities disciplines should not be overlooked, especially in physical geography-based courses, as they can expose students to high-level thinking skills such as: not limiting research projects to quantitative observations in a natural setting; implementing a student-friendly …
Gated Communities: Institutionalizing Social Stratification, L. Joe Morgan
Gated Communities: Institutionalizing Social Stratification, L. Joe Morgan
The Geographical Bulletin
This paper argues that an increase in gated and separated communities is being perpetuated by social structure and de facto government policies. A review of the contemporary literature indicates the development of “gated communities” has become more pronounced in recent years. This paper demonstrates that the processes of social separation and stratification playing themselves out in these communities result from the extant structure of society at large. “Pro-growth” policies and pushes to preserve property values, both rooted in class differentiation, have become a new mechanism promoting segregation, and have been employed by governments, developers, police, and public policy makers. This …
Nonpoint Source Pollution Risk Mapping For Alabama’S Big Creek Lake, Marco Allain, Jason Jones
Nonpoint Source Pollution Risk Mapping For Alabama’S Big Creek Lake, Marco Allain, Jason Jones
The Geographical Bulletin
Big Creek Lake is the primary water supply for Mobile, Alabama. Management of the watershed is important because nonpoint source (NPS) pollution can introduce contaminants into the lake. After the Mobile Area Water and Sewer System (MAWSS) expressed a need for a land suitability assessment to aid in mitigating NPS pollution in the watershed, we worked to assist them in mapping potential sources of NPS pollution there. First, we created a system for rating the relative contributions of various land cover and soil types to NPS pollution in the watershed. Then, we utilized land use/land cover information generated from ASTER …

The Geographical Bulletin
The Middle Atlas Causse is a vast natural park that includes a large part of the volcanic province of the Middle Atlas between Azrou and Timahdite that is characterized by large effusions of basaltic rocks among which emerge well preserved monogenic volcanic edifices. Taking advantage of its impressive and significant presence in the landscape, our priority will be to enhance this natural element to make it a powerful lever for tourism and territorial development. We propose an action for the development and heritage appropriation of this geosite, as part of a project that brings together the natural and human assets …

What Can We Do? An Exploratory Study On Undergraduate Student Climate Change Perceptions, Walker J. Skeeter, Jacob R. Reed, Jordan R. Cissell, Riffat Islam, David J. Keellings
The Geographical Bulletin
A survey was conducted to evaluate the perceptions of undergraduate students enrolled in an introductory atmospheric processes course towards various climate change related topics, such as the validity of, and the scientific consensus surrounding climate change. Further questions sought information regarding student knowledge of climate change, such as when they were first exposed to the science, and their methods of seeking out information regarding climate change. This study additionally seeks to identify sectors of the human and natural world that students feel climate change negatively affects. Results indicate that students desire information about mitigation strategies, regardless of whether they believe …

The Geographical Bulletin
The Quaternary Middle Atlas Volcanic Province is the largest and youngest volcanic field in Morocco. It hosts a hundred of well-preserved strombolian cones and maars which emitted numerous mafic pyroclastic deposits and lava flows covering a surface of ca. 960 km2 . The 2.27 Ma Aguelmane Sidi Ali monogenetic scoria cone was emplaced in a tectonic basin of the same name on the southern edge of the Bou-Anguer-Aïn-Nokra syncline in the eastern folded part of the Middle Atlas. Aguelmane Sidi Ali scoria cone was formed by a short-lived eruption of days to weeks. The eruptive dynamic recorded in the volcanic …
Watershed Surface Characteristics And Storm Distribution Impactson Low-Order Urban Stream Hydrology Response, C. Andrew Day, Garrett Seay
Watershed Surface Characteristics And Storm Distribution Impactson Low-Order Urban Stream Hydrology Response, C. Andrew Day, Garrett Seay
The Geographical Bulletin
This research observed and modeled rainfall-runoff processes for six ungauged low-order urban watersheds within the Louisville Metro area, KY for a variety of storm distributions. We collected rainfall/runoff event field data while surface biophysical data in the form of gridded elevation, landcover and soil type were also collected and processed for each watershed. These datasets enabled an adjustment of Green-Ampt infiltration loss and NRCS unit-hydrograph transform method time parameters to simulate runoff using the HEC-HMS rainfall-runoff model. Results indicated that impervious cover and watershed shape/hydraulic length most strongly influenced hydrograph responses, while positive-skew storm distributions resulted in higher peak runoff …

The Girl At The Baggage Claim: Explaining The East-West Culture Gap., Dawn M. Drake
The Geographical Bulletin
The Girl at the Baggage Claim is an examination of cultural differences in how humans view the world. Jen creates two categories of personalities – the big pit and the flexi-self. Big pits are associated with western cultures and more self-centered and individualistic behaviors that focus on advancing one’s own causes ahead of others’. Flexi-selves, on the other hand, are more closely associated with eastern cultures, including Eastern Europe, and interdependent behaviors aimed at the betterment of the group, even if it is at the expense of the individual. The author provides a series of tests to help readers determine …
Introducing The Concept Of The “Causal Continuum” In Introductory Weather And Climate Courses, Brent R. Skeeter
Introducing The Concept Of The “Causal Continuum” In Introductory Weather And Climate Courses, Brent R. Skeeter
The Geographical Bulletin
In any introductory meteorology, climatology, Earth science, or physical geography course, students will likely gain a much greater understanding of the weather and/ or climate material if their course instruction is effectively rooted within the framework of why weather occurs and why climates exist. Indeed, without an early understanding of why weather even occurs, much of what is taught within an introductory course will likely never be fully grasped or appreciated by students. Along those lines, it should be extremely beneficial to include an explicit discussion of what is here termed the “causal continuum”, in the early portion of such …
