Power, knowledge and political ecology in the third world: a review
Progress in Physical Geography - Tập 22 Số 1 - Trang 79-94 - 1998
Raymond L. Bryant
Political ecology examines the political dynamics surrounding material and discursive struggles over the environment in the third world. The role of unequal power relations in constituting a politicized environment is a central theme. Particular attention is given to the ways in which conflict over access to environmental resources is linked to systems of political and economic control fi...... hiện toàn bộ
Remote sensing methods in medium spatial resolution satellite data land cover classification of large areas
Progress in Physical Geography - Tập 26 Số 2 - Trang 173-205 - 2002
Steven E. Franklin, Michael A. Wulder
Numerous large-area, multiple image-based, multiple sensor land cover mapping programs exist or have been proposed, often within the context of national forest monitoring, mapping and modelling initiatives, worldwide. Common methodological steps have been identified that include data acquisition and preprocessing, map legend development, classification approach, stratification, incorporat...... hiện toàn bộ
Quaternary glacial history of the Mediterranean mountains
Progress in Physical Geography - Tập 30 Số 3 - Trang 334-364 - 2006
Philip D. Hughes, Jamie Woodward, Philip L. Gibbard
Glacial and periglacial landforms are widespread in the mountains of the Mediterranean region. The evidence for glacial and periglacial activity has been studied for over 120 years and it is possible to identify three phases of development in this area of research. First, a pioneer phase characterized by initial descriptive observations of glacial landforms; second, a mapping phase whereby...... hiện toàn bộ
Pathways for climate change effects on fire: Models, data, and uncertainties
Progress in Physical Geography - Tập 35 Số 3 - Trang 393-407 - 2011
Amy E. Hessl
Fire is a global process affecting both the biosphere and the atmosphere. As a result, measuring rates of change in wildland fire and understanding the mechanisms responsible for such changes are important research goals. A large body of modeling studies projects increases in wildfire activity in future decades, but few empirical studies have documented change in modern fire regimes. Iden...... hiện toàn bộ
Economic valuation and the commodification of ecosystem services
Progress in Physical Geography - Tập 35 Số 5 - Trang 613-628 - 2011
Erik Gómez-Baggethun, Manuel Ruíz-Pérez
In the last decade a growing number of environmental scientists have advocated economic valuation of ecosystem services as a pragmatic short-term strategy to communicate the value of biodiversity in a language that reflects dominant political and economic views. This paper revisits the controversy on economic valuation of ecosystem services in the light of two aspects that are often negle...... hiện toàn bộ
Last Glacial Maximum conditions in southern Africa
Progress in Physical Geography - Tập 38 Số 5 - Trang 519-542 - 2014
Abi Stone
The Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) (21±2 ka) is an important period for which to understand past climatic and environmental conditions. In particular it is a key time-slice for evaluating the performance of numerical climate model simulations of glacial palaeoclimates using palaeoenvironmental data sets. However, our palaeoenvironmental data sets and reconstructions of climatic conditions at ...... hiện toàn bộ
Sorting out river channel patterns
Progress in Physical Geography - Tập 34 Số 3 - Trang 287-326 - 2010
Maarten G. Kleinhans
Rivers self-organize their pattern/planform through feedbacks between bars, channels, floodplain and vegetation, which emerge as a result of the basic spatial sorting process of wash load sediment and bed sediment. The balance between floodplain formation and destruction determines the width and pattern of channels. Floodplain structure affects the style and rate of channel avulsion once ...... hiện toàn bộ
Complex response of river channel morphology subsequent to reservoir construction

Combustion in tropical biomass fires: a critical review
Progress in Physical Geography - Tập 24 Số 3 - Trang 355-377 - 2000
Philip Stott
Despite the publication of a number of recent books, mainly edited compilations, on both fire ecology in general and, more specifically, fire ecology in the tropics, it remains difficult to obtain accessible overviews of many aspects of the subject. This is particularly so with regard to tropical biomass fires. The review presented here attempts to fill this gap with regard to the subject...... hiện toàn bộ
