As an example, let the case of the central attractive potential Φ(r→)=Φ(r)∝rb, i.e., Fr = −(∂/∂r)Φ(r) < 0. Then, the infinitesimal volume is dr→∝rdr−1dr∝Φdrb−1dΦ, thus 12dΦ=∫−∞∞(1+1κ0·ΦkBT)−κ0−1−12dΦΦkBTΦdrb−1dΦ∫−...

Regional, national, and planetary resource inventories have been the stock in trade of applied resource geography since the birth of the discipline. Despite the discipline's historic roots in environmental determinism, modern human geography has sought repeatedly to develop relational approaches to the ...

For example, in EU energy policy documents (for more info see Appendix 1), the term energy is used in various ways and in association with many other terms as part of specific linguistic expressions (e.g., “energy transitions”, “energy poverty”, “energy systems”, “energy justice”,...

The Hippocratic Corpus offers insight into ancient notions of race and ethnicity by virtue of its expansive categorization of various geographically disparate groups. While not all produced by Hippocrates, the Corpus is bound by a common notion of environmental determinism, asserting that the sp...
aEnvironmental determinism's origins go back to antiquity, where it is first encountered in a fifth-century medical treatise ascribed to Hippocrates: Airs, Waters, Places.[2] In Roman times it is, for example, found in the work of the Greek geographer Strabo who wrote that climate influences...
Environmental Determinism G.R. Lewthwaite, in International Encyclopedia of the Social & Behavioral Sciences, 2001 ‘Environmental’ (or ‘geographic’) determinism views human achievement as determined by the natural environment, incorporating location along with geophysical and biophysical features. Some in...
for example. A key variable is the share of energy produced by coal, oil, natural gas, or energy from renewable sources. As experts in the natural sciences know, countries whose energy production composition is weighted more toward coal and oil register a significantly greater intensity of pollut...
