  • Complicating Work–Life Balance in Higher Education

    Ann M Oberhauser, Barnali Dixon et al.ARTICLEThe Professional Geographer2026

    This article examines how faculty in higher education navigate the demands of work, domestic responsibilities, caregiving, and overall health and well-being. The contested nature of work–life balance among academics is embedded in gender and other social relations that are shaped by institutional and societal norms. Our analysis draws from a national survey of members of the American Association of Geographers conducted by the Status of Women in …

  • Enhancing the Climate in Geography Through Diversity and Inclusion

    Ann M Oberhauser, Barnali Dixon et al.ARTICLEThe Professional Geographer2026

    Women and underrepresented groups in higher education face persistent barriers stemming from harassment, discrimination, and bias. This article examines gender and other inequities in higher education to highlight how these issues create a hostile climate for women and marginalized groups in the discipline of geography. Our analysis is grounded in a feminist conceptual framework and stress process theory and draws from survey data collected by th…

  • Gender and Knowledge Gatekeepers in Geography

    Selima Sultana, Barnali Dixon et al.ARTICLEThe Professional Geographer2026

    This article examines the intersection of gender and academic gatekeeping in geography, with a focus on two key entities: the American Association of Geographers (AAG) and academic journals. Whereas institutions are direct gatekeepers, professional organizations indirectly influence faculty, students, and publishers through journal outlets, networking opportunities, and recognition. Focusing on these entities, we aim to contribute to the discours…

  • Experiences of Women AAG Presidents

    Wei Li, Joann Mossa et al.ARTICLEThe Professional Geographer2026

    Presidents of the American Association of Geographers (AAG) play crucial roles in the direction and health of the organization and the field of geography. The social and academic backgrounds of these leaders often influence the initiatives and priorities they implement during their tenure as president. During its 119-year history, only eighteen AAG presidents were women. These women have served as role models and change agents who significantly i…

  • If you build it, who will come? Rethinking living shoreline site selection through integration of equity index and human well-being benefits using geospatially integrated method

    Open AccessLinden Cheek, Barnali Dixon et al.ARTICLEApplied Geography2025

    Living shorelines (LS) are an emerging nature-based method to reduce erosion and storm damage while enriching shoreline habitat and providing adjacent communities with human well-being benefits derived from access to nature. Existing geospatial methods for selecting LS sites consider physical and ecological factors but rarely human well-being or equitable distribution of benefits. This research integrates these considerations into LS site selecti…

  • Using a smart city framework to advance justice

    Henry Alegría, Barnali Dixon et al.ARTICLELocal Environment2024

    The smart city framework, while initially received with enthusiasm, has been critiqued for reproducing urban inequalities rather than reducing marginalisation. This paper demonstrates how application of an equity lens within a smart city framework can advance justice by addressing air quality inequities in a diverse coastal city. We conducted a pilot study in which integrated air quality sensors are deployed for criteria pollutants in two contras…

  • The role of crowdsourced data, participatory decision-making and mapping of flood related events

  • Tale of two neighbourhoods

    Rebecca Johns, Barnali Dixon et al.ARTICLELocal Environment2020

    Defining vulnerability and identifying vulnerable areas and populations is critical to climate adaptation and resilience. Neighbourhoods are not homogeneous in terms of their socio-economic and physical vulnerability to flooding and other climate related impacts resulting in diverse challenges. Working with communities to better identify their concerns, liabilities, and strengths in the face of climate challenges will help build resiliency for al…
