The Academic Job Market in U.S. Geography and the Business Cycle
The Great Recession of 2007–2009 had profound effects on all sectors of the U.S. economy. In this article we assess the relationship between the academic job market in U.S. geography and the business cycle. Specifically, we examine the responsiveness of the job market to the business cycle since the early 1970s, the impacts of the Great Recession on hiring, and how hiring networks changed with the recession. For our analyses we draw on data from …
Geographic versus institutional drivers of nitrogen footprints
Excess reactive nitrogen (N) is linked to a myriad of environmental problems that carry large social costs. Nitrogen footprint tools can help institutions understand how their direct and indirect activities are associated with N release to the environment through energy use, food, and transportation. However, little is known about how geographic context shapes the environmental footprints of institutions. Defining the system boundaries over which…
Publishing journal articles in Canadian geography
Key Messages Over the past 30 years, Canadian geographers published in a wide range of journals, but few journals had many articles in each year. Commercial presses dominate publishing, with a decline in society and university presses; papers published per faculty increased from 0.5 yr −1 in 1981–82 to 1.7 yr −1 in 2011–12. Canadian geographers are publishing well beyond the field, engaging with much larger audiences, and reaching top journals, t…
The cascade of C
Northern peatlands are important carbon (C) sinks and while the patterns of C accumulation have been frequently investigated, nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) accumulation are often neglected. Here we link the C:N:P stoichiometry from foliar plant tissues, through senescent litters to peat, and determine C, N and P accumulation rates at Mer Bleue Bog, eastern Canada. Average C:N:P ratios changed from 794:17:1 in the foliar tissues to 911:10:1 in l…
A database and synthesis of northern peatland soil properties and Holocene carbon and nitrogen accumulation
Here, we present results from the most comprehensive compilation of Holocene peat soil properties with associated carbon and nitrogen accumulation rates for northern peatlands. Our database consists of 268 peat cores from 215 sites located north of 45°N. It encompasses regions within which peat carbon data have only recently become available, such as the West Siberia Lowlands, the Hudson Bay Lowlands, Kamchatka in Far East Russia, and the Tibetan…

Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Canadian Peat Extraction, 1990–2000
This study uses life-cycle analysis to examine the net greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the Canadian peat industry for the period 1990-2000. GHG exchange is estimated for land-use change, peat extraction and processing, transport to market, and the in situ decomposition of extracted peat. The estimates, based on an additive GHG accounting model, show that the peat extraction life cycle emitted 0.54 x 10(6) t of GHG in 1990, increasing to 0.89 …

Gas Exchange Between Peatlands and the Atmosphere
The Effect of Vegetation on Precipitation Chemistry
Soil Erosion in Lesotho and Tanzania
Snow Ph and Dust Loading at Schefferville, Quebec
Problems of acid precipitation in association with industrial activity in areas such as the Great Lakes region are now well‐known (e.g. Hornbeck et al., 1977), and the Canadian Network for Sampling Precipitation (CANSAP) has established monitoring stations across Canada. In communities in northern Canada, however, especially in winter, a considerable amount of SO 2 is liberated locally. It is therefore important to be able to separate local effec…
Land Use and Erosion in the Machakos Hills∗
The Machakos Hills were sparsely populated before the advent of colonial administration at the end of the nineteenth century. The population grew rapidly after 1900. Most of the avialable land was occupied by farmers, and changes in land-use practices and their intensity caused extensive surface and gully erosion by the 1930s. Experimental data show that the soils are highly erodible and that many of the erosive storms occur at the beginning of t…
