{"title":"GIS and Remote Sensing Applications in Geomorphology","authors":"Yingkui Li","doi":"10.1093/obo/9780199874002-0219","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1093/obo/9780199874002-0219","url":null,"abstract":"Geomorphology is the science of studying landforms, landscapes, and their related processes, including the description, materials, classification, origin, evolution, and history of earth/planetary surfaces. Geographic information system (GIS) is a computer-based system used for collection, maintenance, storage, retrieval, analysis, and distribution of geographic data and information. A closely related technique to GIS is remote sensing (RS), the noncontact recording of electromagnetic spectrum of earth/planetary surfaces based on satellite-, aircraft-, or ground-based sensors to measure, detect, and classify ground objects. GIS and remote sensing have been integrated in many geomorphological studies to quantify surface processes and landforms. GIS/RS has been strongly linked with the methodology and concepts in geomorphology since its initial development. With the continual development of GIS and RS techniques, GIS/RS has been widely used to classify landform and landscape units, extract specific landform features, quantify process-landform relationships, and detect geomorphic changes. In particular, the combination of GIS/RS with digital elevation models (DEMs) has become one of the most common approaches for geomorphological research, especially with the early-21st-century progress in using LiDAR (light detection and ranging) and UAS (unmanned aircraft systems) to obtain high-resolution DEMs. A new discipline, geomorphometry, have been developed to quantify landforms and topography at various spatial scales on the basis of mathematical, statistical, and image-processing techniques. This article first includes a section focusing on the use of GIS/RS in general landform and landscape classification and then categorizes literature into a variety of subfields of geomorphology in which GIS/RS has been applied to solve geomorphological issues. These subfields include Glacial Geomorphology, Watershed and Fluvial Geomorphology, Hillslope Processes and Landslides, Coastal Geomorphology, Karst Geomorphology, Aeolian Geomorphology, and Tectonic Geomorphology. Some subfields, such as volcanic geomorphology and planetary geomorphology, are not included, but the methods and principles summarized in this article can be applied to these subfields.","PeriodicalId":46568,"journal":{"name":"Geography","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2020-07-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43583447","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Barford, Rachel Coombe, Rachel Proefke","doi":"10.1080/00167487.2020.12094090","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/00167487.2020.12094090","url":null,"abstract":"The global population is extraordinarily youthful. This creates great opportunities, and significant challenges. With an estimated 1 billion young people entering the labour market between 2015 and 2025, only 40% are likely to find jobs under present conditions. Ensuring decent work for all is of pressing importance, so much so that it forms a major part of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 8, set to be achieved between 2015 and 2030. It is an immense challenge to secure decent work for all within the next decade, given that at present much of the work available to young people is poorly paid, dangerous, insecure, or in short supply. Drawing upon a survey of young people in lower and middle income countries, we offer insight into young people’s lived experiences of what the International Labour Organisation calls the “decent work deficit”. We document the struggle of getting by on low wages, and the resulting tendency towards multiple overlapping forms of ‘portfolio’ employment. We report insufficient demand for young people’s labour and the insecurity of the work which is available. Furthermore, we share young people’s reports of having too little money to kick start their education or business ventures, and their lack of connections to people who could help them secure work. This paper offers insights into young people’s lived experiences of the decent work deficit, complementing a wealth of international statistical data. We highlight the rich insights offered by young people who are struggling to make a life for themselves and their families; these are some of the lived realities of insufficient decent. We argue that young people’s accounts of their working lives are critical to designing effective interventions to deliver decent work for all.","PeriodicalId":46568,"journal":{"name":"Geography","volume":"105 1","pages":"60-68"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2020-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/00167487.2020.12094090","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46963118","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

McKendrick","doi":"10.1080/00167487.2020.12094093","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/00167487.2020.12094093","url":null,"abstract":"While many have extolled the benefits of incorporating children’s geographies in school geography (Biddulph, 2012; Yarwood and Tyrell, 2012; Roberts, 2017), its place in the classroom is uncertain (Catling, 2011; Hammond, 2020). To gain a more nuanced understanding of how, and why, children’s geographies are drawn upon and engaged with in school geography, this article examines the philosophies and experiences of geography teacher educators. In doing so, it draws on research conducted by the authors during the 2019 Geography Teacher Educator conference held in Bristol, England. Participants engaged in a reflective discussion about children’s geographies, which was framed by Castree et al.’s (2007) notion of ‘borders’ existing between academic and school geography. It transpires that while many geography teacher educators perceive that children’s geographies is fundamental to teaching geography, they identify gaps in their knowledge of the sub-discipline that compromise their ability to utilise it. Furthermore, geography teacher educators opined that the wider context of accountability and performativity that pervades schooling in England today renders it challenging both to explore children’s geographies in the classroom and to develop their knowledge of the field.","PeriodicalId":46568,"journal":{"name":"Geography","volume":"105 1","pages":"86-93"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2020-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/00167487.2020.12094093","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42892866","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
