Geology and Geography Journal of the Mississippi Academy of Sciences April, 2004 by Jack Moody The Geology and Geography Division had a very ambitious vision of what could be accomplished this year. We started with the idea that we would put on a symposium for our division. Knowing that climate change is a science-based topic of wide interest we set that as the topic and pursued a guest speaker to build the meeting around. In that effort we ended up with two speakers, one of whom is ... Want to read the whole article? You can

The Carolina Chickadee (Poecile carolinensis) of southeastern North America comprises two geographically structured, monophyletic clusters of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplotypes (Gill et al. 1993). Here, we report the mtDNA identities of specimens of P carolinensis from new localities in southwestern Alabama west across southern Mississippi. The molecular identities of the new specimens define a clinal, not parapatric, transition from eastern haplotypes to western haplotypes. The results also document the first genetic cline structure between morphologically undifferentiated populations of a bird species. Methods.-Earlier specimens from a coarse sampling transect from Texas to Georgia (collected in 1990) revealed that the divergent P carolinensis haplotypes respectively occupy extensive ranges east and west of the Mobile Bay/Tombigbee River system of southwestern Alabama. These samples also focused attention on the Mobile Basin / Tombigbee River as the place of contact and possibly parapatric transition from eastern to western haplotypes (Gill et al.1993).

Traveling in the U.S. Intro to the U.S. Geography Americans often speak of their country as one of several large regions. These regions are cultural units rather than governmental units - formed by history and geography and shaped by the economics, literature and folkways that all the parts of a region share. What makes one region different from another? Within several regions, language is used differently and there are strong dialects. There are also differences in outlook and attitude based on geography. A region's multicultural heritage as well as distinct demographic characteristics like age and occupation also make regions different and special. The United States is a varied land - of forests, deserts, mountains, high flat lands and fertile plains. The country lies mostly in the temperate zone but there is a very wide range of climate variations. The continental United States stretches 4,500 kilometers from the Atlantic Ocean on the east to the Pacific Ocean on the west. It borders Canada on the north and reaches south to Mexico and the Gulf of Mexico. The United States covers a total area of 9 million square kilometers (including Alaska and Hawaii). Alaska is the largest in area of the 50 states, and Texas is the second largest. From the Appalachian Mountains in the East to the Rocky Mountains in the West, the center of the country is drained by the Mississippi and Missouri Rivers and their branches. The Mississippi is one of the world's great rivers; it was known to Native Americans as the "father of waters." Water from the source of its main branch, the Missouri River, flows about 6,400 kilometers from the northern Rocky Mountains to the mouth of the Mississippi in the Gulf of Mexico. On a topographic map of the United States, the mountains look like jagged masses, the plains like vast, open flat spaces, and the rivers like meandering threads. Today, highways, railways and transcontinental aircraft criss-cross the land, making travel easy. But only a few generations ago, the topographic features on the map represented great dangers and difficulties.

First Battle of Big Black River 17 May 1863 Big Black River On May 16, 1863, the Union Army under the commmand of Ulyses S. Grant fought the largest and most significant battle of the Vicksburg Campaign. The Union forces were victorius at the battle of Champion's Hill. As a result of this battle, Confederate troops were retreating west in the direction of Vicksburg. In the course of this retreat, they came upon the Big Black River. The Big Black River was located twelve miles east of Vicksburg and ten miles west of the Champion's Hill battlefield. Upon reaching the Big Black River on the evening of 16 May 1863, Lt. General John C. Pemberton made the decision to defend a bridgehead on the east bank of the river. Unbeknownst to Pemberton, Major General William W. Loring's "lost" Confederate division was marching in another direction, attempting to reunite with the forces of General Joseph E. Johnston. In the early morning of 17 May, Union General Eugene Carr's division, a part of Major General John A. McClernand's XII Corps, was in pursuit of Pemberton's retreating forces. About 5:30 a.m. Carr's division made contact with the Confederate position and halted to prepare for deployment. Carr understood that a frontal assault against such a fortified postion would cost the Union many casualties. Not only because of the actual defenses, but also because of the waist deep bayou and marshy ground in front of the Confederate position. He also realized that flanking the Rebel position would be impossible because of the river at each end.

MAGE Home About Us Professional Development Student Programs ... Contact Us Mississippi River Valley Sojourn: Tales the Land Tells Us By David A. Lanegran, Ph.D. With Benjamin Evans, Heddi Nuesma, and Tara Holden Preface The journey of a thousand miles always begins with the first step. In doing the research for A Mississippi River Valley Sojourn, we wandered through ghost towns, clambered up river bluffs, waded in the Mississippi , snowshoed along winter trails and generally reveled in the joy of field work. We call the trip a sojourn because a sojourner stays only for a short time in a place, even though they want to linger. On our explorations we also discovered many places and talked to dozens of people that we cannot describe in this work. Much remains for you to discover. Anyone following our route will find places to explore further. We know that you will take those opportunities to savor the joy of discovery for yourself. The trip, which generally follows the alignments of the first roads in Minnesota , is divided into five different, but connected sections: The Twin Cities and Industrial Suburbs; Mississippi River Towns; The Whitewater Valley; Agriculture Heartland and Towns; and, finally, The Booming Suburban Fringe of the Southern Edge of the Twin Cities. We have chosen several points or stops to reset odometers. In doing this, we hope that the itinerary is easy to pick up from any of these points. Also note that your odometer may not match exactly with ours, given the variations in odometer accuracy and the winter tire pressure of our "mileage car!"

Departmental Seminar Programme 2000 Review by the Director The 1999-2000 year saw the Graduate School maintain its position as one of the largest M.Phil./Ph.D. training programmes in Geography in the UK. Seventeen PhD's were awarded, as well as 32 M.Phil. degrees across the three programmes of Environment and Development, GIS and Remote Sensing and Quaternary Science. Our students also continue to achieve excellent job placements across the academic world, industry, research and government agencies. The list of topics testifies to the breadth and depth of the Department's research base. The process of administering this wide range of activity would be impossible without the help of many people; 273 applications were processed in 1999-2000, and 45 students admitted. This burden falls heavily onto the Graduate School Office, which during the year saw Maria Constantinou succeeded by Elisabeth Burmeister. Both deserve considerable thanks for their efforts. The administration process also relies heavily on the directors of each M.Phil. and on the Degree Committee, to whom the Department owes a great debt. The whole process was overseen in this period by Professor Keith Richards, who directed the Graduate School.
