Journal Article
Power, M., & Sidaway, J. (2004). The degeneration of tropical geography'. Annals of the Association of American Geographers, 94(3), 585-601. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1467-8306.2004.00415.x

How did colonial and tropical geography as practiced in the aftermath of World War II become development geography by the 1970s? We excavate the genealogy of development geography, relating it to geopolitical, economic, and social traumas of decoloni... Read More about The degeneration of tropical geography'.

Hydrological controls of surficial mass movements in peat (2004)
Journal Article
Warburton, J., Holden, J., & Mills, A. (2004). Hydrological controls of surficial mass movements in peat. Earth-Science Reviews, 67(1-2), 139-156. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.earscirev.2004.03.003

Peat deposits occur in areas where water logging is common. Large areas of blanket mire occur throughout the temperate and cold regions of the Northern and Southern Hemispheres and are particularly extensive in the UK Uplands. Mass movements of peat,...

Locating processes of identification: studying the precipitates of re-memory through artefacts in the British Asian home (2004)
Journal Article
Tolia-Kelly, D. (2004). Locating processes of identification: studying the precipitates of re-memory through artefacts in the British Asian home. Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, 29(3), 314-329. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.0020-2754.2004.00303.x

Memory has been figured as an important process of placing and locating people and communities, both geographically and socially. Memory has also been significant in research on people who are not part of a formal record of history. This memory work...

Conceptualizing economies and their geographies: spaces, flows and circuits (2004)
Journal Article
Hudson, R. (2004). Conceptualizing economies and their geographies: spaces, flows and circuits. Progress in Human Geography, 28(4), 447-471. https://doi.org/10.1191/0309132504ph497oa

The last decade or so has been one of ongoing, at times heated, debate in economic geography as to how best to conceptualize and theorize economies and their geographies. Reflecting on these debates, I identify six axioms that are central to conceptu... Read More about Conceptualizing economies and their geographies: spaces, flows and circuits.

Footwall topographic development during continental extension (2004)
Journal Article
Densmore, A., Dawers, N., Gupta, S., Guidon, R., & Goldin, T. (2004). Footwall topographic development during continental extension. Journal of Geophysical Research, 109, https://doi.org/10.1029/2003jf000115

We examine the progressive development of footwall topography associated with a set of active normal faults in the northeastern Basin and Range Province of the western United States. Fault length and displacement increase monotonically from northeast... Read More about Footwall topographic development during continental extension.

Catchment-scale mapping of surface grain size in gravel bed rivers using airborne digital imagery (2004)
Journal Article
Carbonneau, P., Lane, S., & Bergeron, N. (2004). Catchment-scale mapping of surface grain size in gravel bed rivers using airborne digital imagery. Water Resources Research, 40(7), Article W07202. https://doi.org/10.1029/2003wr002759

This study develops and assesses two methods for estimating median surface grain sizes using digital image processing from centimeter-resolution airborne imagery. Digital images with ground resolutions of 3 cm and 10 cm were combined with field calib...
