83. Geography Of Coffee geography professor describes fieldbased course about coffee cultivation and trade. http://webhost.bridgew.edu/jhayesboh/RESOURCE/CoffeeGeog.htm

Geography of Coffee James Hayes-Bohanan, Ph.D. UPDATED July 27, 2005 To enroll in GEOG 400, contact the BSC International Programs office. Applications are due no later than October 1, 2005. What is the geography of coffee? This is the confluence of two of my great passions: learning about the world (geography) and enjoying a hot, bitter beverage (coffee)! In my environmental geography course, I usually spend at least two class sessions discussing the relationship between the beverage in my cup and the bean on the bush. My father (a great man, but java-challenged) once asked how I could do an entire lecture (he asked back when this was only one lecture) about coffee. I responded that I could do an entire course on the topic, and in fact, I plan to do so early in January 2006! See the syllabus (Word format) and itenerary , and let me know if you are interested in taking the course. Applications with $50 deposit are due no later than October 1, 2005. For me, coffee is an excellent jumping-off point for understanding natural resource conservation and exploitation, equity in international trade, the geographic displacement of environmental problems, and global patterns of colonization and post-colonial economic relationships. This page is my humble contribution to the discussion. The links below are a few of my favorites about coffee. A much more comprehensive list appears in the

CCSU GEOGRAPHY - GRADUATE PROGRAM Notice! Students wanting to become graduate students in geography must contact the Graduate Advisor (Dr. Peter Kyem).This is not an official program description; please consult the most recent edition of the university graduate catalogue. Faculty Dr. Brian Sommers (Chair, DiLoreto 208), Dr. Richard Benfield, Dr. John Harmon, Dr. Peter Kyem, Dr. Timothy Rickard, Dr. Cindy Pope, Dr. Xiaoping Shen, Dr. David Truly, Dr. Philip Van Beynen (Department phone: 860.832.2785) Department Overview Central Connecticut State University has the oldest and largest graduate program in Geography in the state of Connecticut. The graduate program was initiated in 1962 with a Master of Science in Social Science for in-service teachers who desired to complete the requirements for their permanent teaching certificates. However, the program's emphasis has changed since state approval was granted in 1976 to offer a Master of Science in Geography. Since that time, students have used the latter degree in the pursuit of a variety of career goals. Geography is the science of location. The geography faculty teaches students how to use effectively maps and air photos, gather information about places, and make computer analyses. Students use this knowledge to learn about how people use the land in different places, and what impacts humans.

Population Geography Population Geography is the study of spatial variations in distribution, density, composition and growth of human numbers on earth. It is important because it links all other aspects of geography together. Demography Demography is the study of population characteristics. It is significant because There are more people living today than any other time in history. There's been a population explosion since World War 2. There is an inverse relationship between population growth and resources i.e. there are too many people in places without enough resources to support them and too few people in areas with over abundant resources Thomas Malthus Thomas Malthus, was a British Clergyman/economist. He came up with the Malthusian Theory of Population Growth. The salient points of his theory were Food production increased at an arithmetic ratio (1, 2, 3...) while population increased at an exponential ratio (1, 2, 4, 8...). Population growth would outstrip food supply, and mass starvation would follow.

88. SocioSite: PECULIARITIES OF CYBERSPACE: INTERNET USE(ERS) Academic paper giving analysis of the geography and demography of the Internet. By Albert Benschop of the University of Amsterdam. http://www2.fmg.uva.nl/sociosite/websoc/demography.html

Home Subject Areas Suggestion? Internet Use(rs) Albert Benschop Cyber Geography International How many people? How much information? ... References Cybergeography We used to live in a local world that was divided into geographically demarcated units, like home, office, street, cafe, train, rugby field, or dancing. The internet age seems to have blurred any geographical structure. Yet, the virtual reality of the internet has its own particular geography. It is a geography which is built out of networks and nodes which transport information flows which are created and controlled on special locations. Cyberspace as such is no tangible space, but the information processes which constitute this space are embedded in the local world with brick-and-mortar rooms and hard-wired computers. The information space of the internet is constituted by connections between computers and networks of computers. So internet is not a monolytic or placeless 'cyberspace', but rather a series of new technologies that are used by millions of people on different places of the local world. The technical geography refers to the telecommunications infrastructure of the internet, the connections between the computers that organize internet traffic (routers), and the distribution of the internet's broad bandwidth. Through a myriad of possible routes every node of the network is connected to every other node. The USA used to play a central role in the connections between the countries. The technical structure of the internet was highly concentrated round the USA, but this hegemony has been diminished by the emergence of new powerful nodes (hubs and routers) in other areas of the world, particularly in Europe. The strategic differences between the countries are declining. The highly USA-concentrated structure of the technical geography is gradually replaced by a technical dependency between the metropoles of the world.

Odyssey Logs - Search by Region Atlantic Ocean Mediterranean Sea ... Meet the Crew A view of Howland Island from the 'crow's nest' of the Odyssey. Photo: Chris Johnson December 4, 2000 At Howland Island Real Audio Log Transcript We have arrived at Howland Island. It would be hard to imagine a smaller, flatter, more featureless place. It's kidney shaped, with its longest axis only 1½ miles, and an average height above sea level under 25 feet. To expose those 25 feet, however, the base rises through more than three miles of water, so that the island is just the very top of a 16,000 foot, underwater mountain. It looks as though any serious storm surge accompanying a typhoon would sweep unobstructed across it. (Typhoons are what people out here in the western Pacific call hurricanes) but equatorial latitudes don't experience typhoons or hurricanes, so perhaps that never happens. At our anchorage and from the deck of the Odyssey there is no visible sign of human occupation save a short, low stone wall. From the mast, however, we can see that it's a flat bulldozed plain of coral sand, without a single tree and with what appear to be bits of ruins scattered over it. Howland does have one notable feature, however, and it's visible several miles away: a solitary, painted tower reminiscent at a distance of a tombstone. It's called the Amelia Earhart beacon. Its complete isolation and loneliness underlines, poignantly, the loneliness of her ocean perishing. The National Parks service is making strong efforts to prevent the importation of foreign species to Howland Island, and they take elaborate precautions to make sure that no one brings in insect eggs, or plant seeds on their clothing. So after years of exploitation and neglect, Howland has a new policy: in Amelia Earhart's day everything that could be done to facilitate her arrival from foreign parts was done. Now everything that can be done to prevent arrivals from foreign parts is done. But I support that policy: it makes excellent biological sense. Howland Island has become a particularly clear example of how humanity sometimes changes its priorities for the better in but a single human lifetime.

100. Egypt: Nubia In Modern And Ancient Times History of Nubia from ancient times to the present, plus essays on the geography of Nubia, its political divisions and names over time, and its culture and traditions; from TourEgypt. http://touregypt.net/historicalessays/nubia.htm

Nubia Nubia is located in today's southern Egypt and northern Sudan. The modern inhabitants of southern Egypt and Sudan still refer to themselves as Nubians. They speak the Nubian language as well as Arabic. Thousands of Nubians from the north were forced to relocate from their endangered homelands to be resettled in Egypt and Sudan. This land has one of the harshest climates in the world. The temperatures are high throughout most of the year, and rainfall is infrequent. The banks of the Nile are narrow in much of Nubia, making farming difficult. Yet, in antiquity, Nubia was a land of great natural wealth, of gold mines, ebony, ivory and incense which was always prized by her neighbors. Nubia is the homeland of Africa's earliest black culture with a history which can be traced from 3100 BC onward through Nubian monuments and artifacts, as well as written records from Egypt and Rome. The land of Nubia is a desert divided by the river Nile. For want of water and rich soil, most of Nubia has never been able to support a large population for long periods. However, some of Africa's greatest civilizations emerged here, centers of achievement whose existence was based on industry and trade. Because they did not write their own languages until very late in ancient times, we know these centers and their people largely through their archaeology and what the Egyptians and Greeks said about them.
