Geography in Reduced Form
Geography models have introduced and estimated a set of competing explanations for the persistent relationships between firm and location characteristics, but cannot identify these forces. I introduce a solution method for models in arbitrary geographies that generates reduced-form predictions and tests to identify forces acting through geographic linkages. This theoretical approach creates a n...
متن کاملCENTENN IAL FORUM GIScience, Geography, Form, and Process
T he map has evolved over the past few centuries as humanity’s primary method for storing and communicating knowledge of the Earth’s surface. Topographic maps portray the general form of the surface and its primary physical and cultural features; thematic maps show the variation of more specialized properties such as soil type or population density; and bathymetric maps and hydrographic charts ...
متن کاملGeography and sustainable development
To overcome these problems in 1978 the Brandtland report announced the sustainable development as not to spend resources more than the nature’s production capacity and not to pollute the nature more than it can assimilate. In other words, the nature should remain in its sustainable state so that the future generations can live with no limitations. The principles of the sustainable dev...

I then link ethics to the geographical imagination by developing a twofold schema representing geography's ontological project and epistemological process, an ...
متن کاملOn 'various contrivances': pollination, phylogeny and flower form in the Solanaceae.
Members of the euasterid angiosperm family Solanaceae have been characterized as remarkably diverse in terms of flower morphology and pollinator type. In order to test the relative contribution of phylogeny to the pattern of distribution of floral characters related to pollination, flower form and pollinators have been mapped onto a molecular phylogeny of the family. Bilateral flower symmetry (...
