Water—a world problem
W G V BalchinARTICLEInternational Journal of…1985
After outlining the main categories where water is used by Man (domestic, agricultural, industrial, power production, waste removal, transportation and recreation) the author shows the relationship with the hydrological cycle before considering the statistics of the world water problem. The nature of the future demand for water in respect of both quantity and quality follows with an indication of recent developments and possible future improvemen…

Careers for Graduate Geographers
W G V BalchinARTICLEGeographical Journal1983Cited by: 4References: 1
Committee of the Society reviews the matter from time to time and this memorandum is the result. It outlines the changing trends in career outlets, the attitudes of mind resulting from a training in geography, and then gives details of the current range of careers for which the training and knowledge acquired during a university course in geography are known to be of value. Before the Second World War, most of the then limited number of graduates…

platforms, raised cliffs and shingle beaches, in places up to 300 feet above sealevel, being present except where scree cones have on steeper slopes occasionally obliterated the features. The absence of any detailed work on the area and the ease with which past shorelines may in places be traced, suggested that an intensive study with mapping and levelling might throw light both on the formation of shingle ridges in a region slowly emerging from …

A Water Use Survey
W G V BalchinARTICLEGeographical Journal1958Cited by: 3
Ihave been invited this afternoon to initiate a discussion upon the water problem in Great Britain by stating the case for a water use survey. The presentation of this case will, I hope, conveniently introduce the wider aspects of the situation that we face with regard to water?paradoxically the only raw material with which the country is really well endowed. But although it is self-replenishing, water cannot be regarded as inexhaustible. As loca…

The Erosion Surfaces of North Cornwall
W G V BalchinARTICLEGeographical Journal1937References: 1
IT is generally accepted that past marine action has been a vital factor in shaping the present physiographical features of Cornwall. A study of the Padstow district in the light of recent knowledge concerning erosion surfaces suggests however that the exact importance of this factor has yet to be realized. So far little consideration has been given to the relation of the physiography to the already recognized platforms of marine abrasion, and th…
