Troubled Water: Acquiescence, Conflict, and the Politics of Place in Watershed Management (1999)
Journal Article
Steinberg, P. E., & Clark, G. E. (1999). Troubled Water: Acquiescence, Conflict, and the Politics of Place in Watershed Management. Political Geography, 18(4), 477-508. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0962-6298%2898%2900111-5

Controversy surrounds proposed revisions in access and recreation policy at central Massachusetts' Wachusett Reservoir, a crucial source of drinking water for metropolitan Boston. This policy conflict illuminates a broader tension between rural and e... Read More about Troubled Water: Acquiescence, Conflict, and the Politics of Place in Watershed Management.

Lines of Division, Lines of Connection: Stewardship in the World-Ocean (1999)
Journal Article
Steinberg, P. E. (1999). Lines of Division, Lines of Connection: Stewardship in the World-Ocean. Geographical Review, 89(2), 254-264. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1931-0846.1999.tb00217.x

This article investigates the history of drawing lines across ocean space. Although drawing lines generally is perceived as an act of division—as exemplified by the line drawn through the Atlantic Ocean by Pope Alexander VI in 1493—lines, like the oc...

Nation, region and homeland : history and tradition in Dalarna Sweden (1999)
Journal Article
Crang, M. (1999). Nation, region and homeland : history and tradition in Dalarna Sweden. Ecumene (Sevenoaks), 6(4), 447-470. https://doi.org/10.1191/096746099701556466

This paper looks at how one regional identity has interacted with a national identity, suggesting the relationships are more complex than either simply changing scale or a hierarchical set of affiliations. The paper focuses on one institution which h... Read More about Nation, region and homeland : history and tradition in Dalarna Sweden.

Erosion-driven uplift in the Gamburtsev Subglacial Mountains of East Antarctica (1999)
Journal Article
Paxman, G., Watts, A., Ferraccioli, F., Jordan, T., Bell, R., Jamieson, S., & Finn, C. (1999). Erosion-driven uplift in the Gamburtsev Subglacial Mountains of East Antarctica. Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 452, 1-14. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.epsl.2016.07.040

The relative roles of climate and tectonics in mountain building have been widely debated. Central to this debate is the process of flexural uplift in response to valley incision. Here we quantify this process in the Gamburtsev Subglacial Mountains,... Read More about Erosion-driven uplift in the Gamburtsev Subglacial Mountains of East Antarctica.

A foraminiferal-based transfer function: implications for sea-level studies. (1999)
Journal Article
Horton, B., Edwards, R., & Lloyd, J. (1999). A foraminiferal-based transfer function: implications for sea-level studies. Journal of foraminiferal research, 29(2), 117-129. https://doi.org/10.2113/gsjfr.29.2.117

A dataset consisting of 165 contemporary foraminiferal samples and associated tide level information was compiled by combining data from ten intertidal study areas situated on the east, south and west coasts of the UK. The relationship between the fo... Read More about A foraminiferal-based transfer function: implications for sea-level studies..

Development of mountainous topography in the Basin Ranges, U.S.A (1999)
Journal Article
Ellis, M., Densmore, A., & Anderson, R. (1999). Development of mountainous topography in the Basin Ranges, U.S.A. Basin Research, 11(1), 21-41. https://doi.org/10.1046/j.1365-2117.1999.00087.x

We use the landcape evolution model Zscape to explore quantitatively the development of mountainous topography in the Basin and Range province (formerly the Basin Ranges), USA, as a function of faulting, surface processes and microclimate. Many of th... Read More about Development of mountainous topography in the Basin Ranges, U.S.A.
