Timing and significance of glacially influenced mass-wasting in the submarine channels of the Greenland Basin (2004)
Journal Article
Ó Cofaigh, C., Dowdeswell, J., Evans, J., Kenyon, N., Taylor, J., Mienert, J., & Wilken, M. (2004). Timing and significance of glacially influenced mass-wasting in the submarine channels of the Greenland Basin. Marine Geology, 207(1-4), 39-54. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.margeo.2004.02.009

The most extensive systems of submarine channels on the continental margins of the Norwegian–Greenland Sea occur in the Greenland Basin (72–75°N). Geophysical records show that these channels are up to 100-m deep, 4-km wide, and extend for about 300...

Users' perspectives on epidemiological, GIS and point pattern approaches to analysing environment and health data (2004)
Journal Article
Cockings, S., Dunn, C., Bhopal, R., & Walker, D. (2004). Users' perspectives on epidemiological, GIS and point pattern approaches to analysing environment and health data. Health & Place, 10(2), 169-182. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.healthplace.2003.09.001

Despite examples showing the usefulness of geographical information systems (GIS) and spatial point pattern analysis in health research, there remain barriers to their widespread use within health service settings. This paper explores potential users... Read More about Users' perspectives on epidemiological, GIS and point pattern approaches to analysing environment and health data.

Money, morals, and markets: evolving rural labour markets in Thailand and the Lao PDR (2004)
Journal Article
Rigg, J., Bouahom, B., & Duangsavanh, L. (2004). Money, morals, and markets: evolving rural labour markets in Thailand and the Lao PDR. Environment and Planning A, 36(6), 983-998. https://doi.org/10.1068/a36133

The analysis and discussion of local labour markets as social outcomes of local structures and processes are now well established in the literature. However, much of the work has focused on the rich world and/or on modern activities. This paper exami...

Regulating economic globalization (2004)
Journal Article
Amin, A. (2004). Regulating economic globalization. Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, 29(2), 217-233. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.0020-2754.2004.00126.x

It is widely accepted that the rising gap in recent years between the global rich and the global poor can be linked to globalization in one way or another, although the strength and causality of the link is debated. Against the backcloth of the havoc... Read More about Regulating economic globalization.

Die Veränderung der urbanen Territorialität infolge der Videoüberwachung des öffentlichen Raumes : ein Vergleich unterschiedlicher räumlicher Funktionsweisen der Videoüberwachung (2004)
Journal Article
Klauser, F. (2004). Die Veränderung der urbanen Territorialität infolge der Videoüberwachung des öffentlichen Raumes : ein Vergleich unterschiedlicher räumlicher Funktionsweisen der Videoüberwachung. Geographica Helvetica, 59(2), 106-118. https://doi.org/10.5194/gh-59-106-2004

As a result of the anonymisation of parts of public space and increasing individualisation of social relations and forms of life, mechanisms of social regulation are changing within public space. Increases of private and public video surveillance wer...

Mixed picture for changes in stable malaria distribution with future climate in Africa (2004)
Journal Article
Thomas, C., Davies, G., & Dunn, C. (2004). Mixed picture for changes in stable malaria distribution with future climate in Africa. Trends in Parasitology, 20(5), 216-220. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.pt.2004.03.001

Our models indicate that in the next 30–40 years, the effects of climate change on stable falciparum malaria zones in Africa are probably complex and spatially heterogeneous, and that range contractions are more likely than expansions. Notably, we di... Read More about Mixed picture for changes in stable malaria distribution with future climate in Africa.

Risk, reward and discipline at work (2004)
Journal Article
Amoore, L. (2004). Risk, reward and discipline at work. Economy and Society, 33(2), 174-196. https://doi.org/10.1080/03085140410001677111

This paper argues that the manufacture of specific kinds of uncertainty and risk has become central to programmes of work flexibilization. The construction of a riskuncertainty relation has underpinned a raft of managerial doctrines on the worker as... Read More about Risk, reward and discipline at work.

Earliest Holocene vegetation history and island biogeography of the Isle of Man, British Isles (2004)
Journal Article
Innes, J., Chiverrell, R., Blackford, J., Davey, P., Gonzalez, S., Rutherford, M., & Tomlinson, P. (2004). Earliest Holocene vegetation history and island biogeography of the Isle of Man, British Isles. Journal of Biogeography, 31(5), 761-772. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2699.2003.01048.x

Aim: To present radiocarbon dated early Holocene pollen analytical data from two sites on the northern plain of the Isle of Man and to discuss the implications of the vegetation history in relation to severance of the island from the British Isles an...
