Updated world map of the Köppen-Geiger climate classification
Although now over 100 years old, the classification of climate originally formulated by Wladimir Köppen and modified by his collaborators and successors, is still in widespread use. It is widely used in teaching school and undergraduate courses on climate. It is also still in regular use by researchers across a range of disciplines as a basis for climatic regionalisation of variables and for assessing the output of global climate models. Here we …
Modelling of hydrology and potential population levels at Bronze Age Jawa, Northern Jordan
The Dendroecological Potential of Eucalyptus Camaldulensis Dehnhardt (River Red Gum) from the Barmah Forest, Victoria, Australia
The study of tree rings has been used for over 100 years to inform climatic and geomorphological reconstructions. In mainland Australia, no tree species are currently recognised as providing reliable sources for such studies over extensive areas. Eucalyptus camaldulensis is a widely growing species with a growth pattern that is closely linked to high levels of available moisture, such as that associated with floods. The species therefore has the …
The Oral Tradition, Environmental Change and River Basin Management
River basin management activities are often carried out in the context of real or perceived environmental change. Views of environmental change provided by the oral tradition are compared with histories of change reconstructed from the historical documentary record for the Nogoa River, Queensland, and the Avon River, Victoria. Quite different perspectives on the nature and causes of river channel change are provided by the two types of sources. R…
Maximising Response Rates in Mail Surveys
Many studies in geography and other disciplines require data to be collected from human subjects. Survey techniques are routinely employed but as expense and time impose powerful constraints there is much interest in methods of making the data collection process as efficient as possible, particularly when the numbers of subjects involved are large. The surveys described here were conducted to collect data for a study of residential water use in M…
