Drawing on a unique dataset from an email-a-tree initiative, the objectives of this study were to identify how concern and connection for urban trees is expressed and determine how insights from the initiative might inform urban forest governance. We examined emails sent to trees using a mixed-methods approach that included qualitative coding, VADER sentiment analysis, and statistical and spatial analyses. We identified and considered three themes based on emails sent by members of the public and municipal tree inventory data. Those themes were location, age and loss, and type. In accord with other studies, overall sentiment for urban trees was positive and underscored people’s strong connections with trees, often based on routine and repeated engagements. However, people noticed and were concerned about a limited range of trees and tree types in urban settings. Based in Melbourne, Australia, our case study shows how examining feelings for trees helps residents and researchers understand urban tree relationships and gauge how those designing public engagement programs might learn from such an initiative to create meaningful opportunities for active participation in governance.</p>","PeriodicalId":47233,"journal":{"name":"Geographical Research","volume":"62 1","pages":"97-116"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2023-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/1745-5871.12626","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138627757","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The second case is about a cooperative energy provider in Australia, operating on the terrain of a neoliberalised electricity market and climate change, and working towards multifaceted repair by collectivising and redistributing surplus and modelling democratic engagement. Those involved in these vastly different cases both pursue repair and reparations through climate capitalist projects by reckoning with historical and present climate debts while constructing forward-looking programs.

In this final missive from me for 2023, I want to reflect on insights gained from attending the annual Wiley research seminar. Held on Thursday 5 October at the Melbourne Museum, the gathering was the first I had attended since the onset of the pandemic, and I learned a lot that I hope will be of interest to readers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The seminar’s focus was on innovation, ethics, and transparency in research publishing and began with a session on research metrics by Justin Zobel, Pro Vice-Chancellor (Graduate and International Research) at the University of Melbourne. After summarising trends in quantification of research outputs and impacts, Zobel explained why his university had decided to sign the Declaration on Research Assessment to better support diverse contributions from personnel and recalibrate its institutional approach to recognition and reward. DORA both unsettles ideas about the efficacy of measures such as journal impact factor and its architects recommend diverse actions leading to change in how research is valued by varied stakeholders, and I note that Wiley is also a signatory.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Alice Wood, Wiley’s Director, Open Research, APAC and China spoke about the publisher’s approaches to open research and engagement with the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ). Wood also referred to how transformational—including open access—agreements between Wiley and other organisations have shaped publishing in recent years; that with the Council of Australian University Librarians (CAUL) was one important example of such change—and &lt;i&gt;Geographical Research&lt;/i&gt; is a beneficiary of that. Wood underscored the need for adaptive approaches to writing and publishing and pointed to several outcomes of transformation. At Wiley, among those outcomes are new and very welcome forms of integrity checks and work to “harmonise” article categories across journals—down from several thousand types to mere hundreds—which seems sensible. But there is also work to standardise journal styles, some of which I think embeds into copy-editing a range of suboptimal outcomes. Witness unnecessary changes to perfectly lovely words such as minute (m), hour (h), or second (s) in papers oriented to the humanities and social sciences, or an arbitrary insistence on removing the comma from numbers between 1000 and 9999—which is problematic in tables with columns of numbers and can lead to confusion where sentences include numbers and reference to specific decades or years. This observation is not pedantry on my part. Be that as it may; Wood’s larger point is that publishers need to remain author-centred and focus on speed, free formatting, and interjournal transfer options, and I concur.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I was particularly taken by Stuart Glover’s presentation on the relationship between Australian government policy and research and publishing.

In Australia, those regions mainly comprise coastal, peri-urban, and high-amenity rural areas. The pace and pattern of land-use conversion in these regions is shaped by the interaction of landholders with land-use planning regulations, notably minimum lot size (MLS) controls. This paper examines that interface in a deep dive into the role of land-use planning controls in shaping the future of farming in an area of rapid rural change, the Ballina-Lismore region in northern New South Wales. We argue that although planning controls in the region are designed to protect land for agriculture by curbing pressures for suburbanisation, they have also inadvertently contributed to the proliferation of <i>unplanned rural living</i>. This proliferation has occurred because MLS controls have incentivised agricultural landholders to sidestep restrictions on subdivision by exploiting concessions and flexibility in some of the controls and have forced some nonagricultural buyers of rural land to acquire bigger holdings than they may have otherwise desired, hence “sterilising” these agricultural-zoned landholdings from farming. We conclude that to better protect agriculture in multifunctional rural regions, land-use planning needs to look beyond deterrence mechanisms, such as MLS restrictions, and towards planning incentives to promote farming on agricultural-zoned land.</p>","PeriodicalId":47233,"journal":{"name":"Geographical Research","volume":"62 1","pages":"117-133"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2023-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/1745-5871.12625","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136079542","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our approach involved using an uncrewed aerial vehicle with a built-in global navigation satellite system, which reduces time and labour costs. We tested the applicability of structure-from-motion multi-view stereo processing, and post-processing motion corrections of positional coordinate data were also tested. Nine verification points were established in a small 0.5 km² watershed, with check dams established in the headwaters of the forested area. The position accuracy and overall working time of verification points extracted by the method were compared with the position accuracy and work time obtained by a field survey using a conventional total station. The results show that the vertical error between the total station and each verification point at an altitude of 150 m ranged from 0.006 to 0.181 m. The working time of the survey was 13% of that of the total station survey. The proposed workflow shows that safe and non-destructive topographic surveying, including fluvial geomorphological mapping, is possible with a vertical error of ±0.103 m in small watersheds. This method will be useful for rapid topographic surveying in inaccessible areas during disasters, namely, debris flow monitoring at check dam sites and efficient topographic mapping of steep valleys in forested areas where positioning ground control points is laborious.

In this article, we analyse both the monitoring technologies developed to contend with COVID-19 and the complex array of regulations and public health orders governing space and mobility in New South Wales and Sydney. Our focus on monitoring technologies is based on the COVIDSafe App (National) and the New South Wales COVIDSafe Check-in App. These apps enabled the surveillance of individual mobilities before their sudden demise apparently unrelated to the public health scenario at the time. We argue that these technologies are examples of sensory power which rapidly enrolled human bodies in systems of surveillance that were difficult to unravel through 2022 and beyond. Our focus on regulations and public health orders outlines the shifting legal geographies during public health crisis and the ways these were enacted as mobility restrictions, surveillance, and punishment in western Sydney.

Our review showcases scholarly accounts of cascading shifts that have occurred within urban ecosystems and provides a better understanding of conceptual and methodological alterations in research approaches. Because both the investigated impacts and the research strategies deal primarily with the consequences of losing the pre-pandemic spatial, temporal, social, cultural, and political frames of reference, we adopt transdisciplinary disorientation theories as the review’s interpretive framework.
