Trip chaining propensity and tour mode choice of out-of-home workers: Evidence from a mid-sized Canadian city
A time-use activity-pattern recognition model for activity-based travel demand modeling
Factors affecting mode choice for the home–elementary school journey: Evidence from Halifax, Canada
This research investigates personal, school, neighbourhood, and weather characteristics that are associated with travel mode choices for children's direct journeys between home and school. Travel diary and socio‐demographic data were collected from elementary school students aged 5 to 11 years in Halifax, Nova Scotia, and were joined with characteristics about their respective school, neighbourhood, and weather. Multinomial and mixed logistic reg…
Trip chaining and tour mode choice of non-workers grouped by daily activity patterns
Neighborhood walking densities: A multivariate analysis in Halifax, Canada
Active-transport walking behavior: Destinations, durations, distances
“Active Living” Related to the Rural-Urban Continuum: A Time-Use Perspective
PURPOSE: This paper assesses the degree to which "active living" varies along the rural-urban continuum, within the county-sized regional municipality of Halifax, Nova Scotia. METHODS: Time-diary data from the Halifax Space-Time Activity Research project were used to compute daily participation rates (PRs) and time durations, at various physical effort levels, in the 4 activity domains of leisure, active transportation (AT), chores, and occupatio…

Evolution of Population Densities: Five Canadian Cities, 1971-2001 1
This article presents new methods for comparative analysis of patterns of gross population density, and employs them in five Canadian metropolitan areas. By comparing changes in levels and patterns in the 1971-2001 period, assessments are made of the macro-level impacts of policies relating to densification and re-densification, and of how such impacts vary by city size. Three comparative techniques are employed. The first uses location quotients…
Patterning in Urban Population Densities: A Spatiotemporal Model Compared with Toronto 1971-2001
We build on the literature on population-density distributions, but translate the consensus cross-sectional progression into a three-dimensional and six-stage geographic information system (GIS) based 'volcano' model. Visual comparison and descriptive statistics show Toronto's recent density patterns to be very similar to those suggested by the model: the central density cluster has reversed its decline, while peripheral clusters have developed a…
Urban containment strategies: A case-study appraisal of plans and policies in Japanese, British, and Canadian cities
Rural population change in Nova Scotia, 1991–2001: Bivariate and multivariate analysis of key drivers
Depopulation is a major demographic and economic issue in Nova Scotia, as it is in many of Canada's hinterland areas. Indian Reserves excepted, two‐thirds of rural census subdivisions declined in population between 1991 and 2001, and this decline has serious economic and social consequences. By contrast, a small minority of seemingly ‘rural’ areas is experiencing excessive population growth through exurbanisation. This article combines map and gr…
Peri‐urban residential development in the Halifax region 1960–2000: Magnets, constraints, and planning policies
The post 1960 locational sequence of peri‐urban residential development in the Halifax city region is interpreted in terms of three sets of factors: magnets or attractors, constraints or inhibitors, and planning policies designed to direct or control development. Most peripheral housing has been suburban (i.e., on small, centrally‐serviced lots) rather than exurban (on large lots, serviced on‐site). Suburban development patterns have been strongl…
Twentieth‐century Retail Change in the Halifax Central Business District
The Halifax downtown area has experienced considerably change in the amount, type, and location of retailing in this century, exemplifying many processes and patterns typical of North American cbds. Owing to increased competition from suburban business districts, retail activity has remained fairly constant in absolute terms but has declined relative to the rest of the urban area. In response, the mix of downtown retailing has been reoriented to …
Countryside Recreational Access in the United States: A Statistical Comparison of Rural Districts
This comparative study employs the concept of physical rigor to map and measure recreational routes and zones available to the public. The comparison is made for 20 representative countryside districts in five regional settings (Northeast, Midwest, South, Great Plains, and California). Five of the districts are national parks, while the rest are 40 × 25 km settled areas chosen to typify landscapes of their region. Statistical measures of access a…

Public Access in the Canadian Countryside: A Comparative Survey
This article employs the concept of physical rigour to map and measure recreational routes and zones available to the public. The thirteen study areas represent settled rural districts in three major ecumene regions, plus national parks at the fringes of the ecumene. Following a qualitative appraisal of mapped patterns of access, statistical measures of access availability are computed for five levels of rigour, grading from passive through to ar…
Public recreational access in the countryside: Concepts and measures of physical rigour
Assessing the visual impact of deep coal-mining
A Model of Coalfield Development: Six Stages Exemplified by the Sydney Field
A six‐stage model of coalfield development is presented. It portrays the typical or natural sequence of coal exploitation, which primarily takes place underground, and illustrates the sequence of transport and settlement development on the surface. Stages in the model relate to the exploitation of increasingly remote reserves, a process governed by changing mining technologies. While the model is presented for a simple plain, variants for coastal…
The Development, Decline, and Revival of Mining on the Sydney Coalfield
Single‐Family House Values in Metropolitan Halifax, 1981
The overall pattern of home values in metropolitan Halifax has been strongly influenced by the early (mid‐nineteenth‐century) establishment of a prestige sector in the South End. This sector failed to develop outward due to the barrier of the Northwest Arm, which, paradoxically, was not bridged, since to have done so would have marred the original attraction of the sector. While nearly all ‘exclusive’ housing remains in pockets on or near the Arm…
Geographical Aspects of the “High Frontier” Concept
Geographers have virtually ignored the debate proceeding over the serious and detailed proposals for space settlements known as the “high-frontier” concept. This paper urges that geographers appraise these proposals, and outlines eight areas of research in which their perspectives and techniques could be fruitful. Thus, human geographers can enquire into the demographic and resource-supply projections used to support arguments for solar power sat…
