1. Trajectories of practice across time: moving beyond the histories of landscape architecture

Author:
Dane Carlson; Mariel Collard-Arias

Landscape research 2022 v.47 no.1 pp. 25-34

Subject:
North America,   etc   ; landscapes; landscaping; models; research;     Show all 5 Subjects
Abstract:
... The established histories of landscape architecture are incongruous with emerging bodies of critical landscape practice. In response, we argue that, rather than adding more non-Western case studies to an existing so-called canon, a different model for positioning our practices within and across time is needed. This model is founded in the understanding of landscape as a continuum of shifting relat ...

Abstract:
... The genus Cyclocosmia Ausserer, 1871 of the spider family Halonoproctidae Pocock, 1901 includes ten known species from North America and Asia. Since Cyclocosmiaricketti was described by Pocock in 1901, no males of this species have ever been reported. The male of Cyclocosmiaricketti is described for the first time, based on a specimen collected near the type locality in Fujian Province, China. A m ...

Abstract:
... Non-native species introductions are becoming increasingly common, but long-term consequences of the introduction of non-native predators on native prey species remains poorly understood. Bythotrephes cederströmii is an invasive zooplanktivore with potential negative impacts on Daphnia across North America. However, Daphnia may be responding to this invader by developing anti-predator defenses. We ...

Abstract:
... China is the distribution center of Malus and has 22 of the 35 worldwide species (Li, 1999). Chinese crabapples (Malus) were introduced to North America and Europe in the 18th century and were planted widely. European and American horticulturists have bred many ornamental crabapple cultivars, which significantly enhanced the popularity of ornamental crabapples (Dirr, 2010; Jefferson, 1970). Among ...

Abstract:
... Charles Horton Peck described some 2700 species of North American fungi in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Among these were 31 species that he described as Hebeloma or that later authors recombined into Hebeloma. These 31 taxa have been analyzed morphologically and molecularly, as far as possible. For six of these species, lectotypes are designated. For twelve species, ITS sequences (some parti ...

Abstract:
... Local opposition to wind energy projects in Europe and North America is growing. This often causes project delays or even failure. Financial benefits may be one way to counteract a lack of community support. This analysis seeks to explain how discounted electricity, payments to the municipality, and payments for social purposes shift the acceptance of communities about a local wind energy project. ...

However, knowledge on how snow cover phenology (SP) modulates ecosystem productivity (EP), especially for the lower- and higher-productivity ecosystems, is limited yet. The situation becomes more embarrassed when asking a more in-depth question as to the macroecological pattern of SP modulating EP – does this process act with the neighb ...

The thermal responses of the Australian species show convergent patterns to the cicadas in similar environments in Africa, Europe, North America, and South America. The study illustrates that similar evolutionary ...
