Dora Creek in the 1930s: Place imagery and identity in an Australian childhood
Geography’s Emerging Cross‐Disciplinary Links: Process, Causes, Outcomes and Challenges
In Australian universities the discipline of Geography has been the pace‐setter in forging cross‐disciplinary links to create multidisciplinary departments and schools, well ahead of other disciplines in humanities, social sciences and sciences, and also to a greater extent than in comparable overseas university systems. Details on all cross‐disciplinary links and on immediate outcomes have been obtained by surveys of all heads of departments/sch…
Private disinvestment and public investment in Australia's pastoral zone: Policy issues
Locational Disadvantage and Inverse Health Care in Queensland: A Response
Policy issues concerning rural settlement in Australia's pastoral zone
In discussing the extent of the pastoral zone and the characteristics of its economy a distinction is drawn between minimal private investment and increased public investment as expectations of the area have changed. Two contrasting settlement systems are identified - large absentee-owned stations and small grazier blocks. Both types are experiencing problems, especially with respect to quality of life and social equity.-D.G.Price
The domestic satellites and remote area communications
Contributions of the satellite system to radio, television, educational and telephone services will provide some significant improvements in very speedy fashion, to a small number of remote area residents, but will not revolutionise the communications services available to remote areas. The reasons for the satellite system's modest contributions are discussed. Proponents of the satellite system have exaggerated the supposed benefits to remote dwe…
Australian higher‐order nodal regions
Factor analysis of interurban telephone traffic in all Australian states confirms generally accepted views on levels of functional centralization within each state and demonstrates that only a limited, spatially discontinuous array of major non‐metropolitan regions exists, satisfying criteria based on eigenvalues, single‐centre nodality and numbers of dependent towns. The use of Q‐ and R‐mode analyses on both morning and evening traffic reveals c…
Telephone traffic dispersion and nodal regionalisation in the Australian states
Telephone traffic is shown to be a reliable indicator of functional ties, with morning peak calls concentratedalong hierarchical pathways andevening peak calls more sensitive to population and distance. Traffic dispersion incident to each centre is systematically related to the size of the centre and to the size and spacing of interacting centres. Metropolitan orientation has a powerful effect on traffic dispersion in all situations and, in the m…
