GEOG 3950: Geography and Ecology of the Colorado Plateau Autumn Interterm 2019 GEOG 3950: Geography and Ecology of the Colorado Plateau Autumn Interterm 2019 Prof Don Sullivan Office: 233 Boettcher West Phone: 303-871-3043 (office); 720-955-4151 (cell) Labs: 160 Olin Hall (303-871-4082) 17 Boettcher West (303-871-2832) GEOG 3950: Geography and Ecology of the Colorado Plateau is an autumn Interterm course that focuses on the physical geography, geology, vegetation, and ecology of the arid Colorado Plateau. This region, stretching from western Colorado into central Utah is a land of stark geological phenomena, national parks, and desert climate conditions. The red rock country of Arches and Canyonlands National Parks will figure prominently in discussions of the ecology and geology of the region. This is a travel course. We will camp on Forest Service land and in National Parks. We will do our own cooking in camp. Be aware that we will be working at elevations of 10,000-11,000 feet on Grand Mesa, so you should be prepared for cool weather. At the other extreme, when at lower elevations daytime temperatures will be quite warm, evenings will almost certainly be quite a bit cooler. The course will begin on Monday, August 19 in room 16 Boettcher West at 9:00 am. We will meet for about 3 hours for classroom discussion, and to organize field and camping equipment and load up the vans. At 12:00 noon we will depart for the field; during the afternoon, we will begin our field exercises. We will return to Denver late in the afternoon of August 28. The Colorado Plateau is a region of mesas, buttes, and rivers. Drained by the Colorado and Green Rivers and their tributaries, rivers have carved deep canyons through the flat- lying sedimentary rocks, exposing more than a half million years of geologic history. The rock layers tell a story of the environmental and tectonic history of the region. Evidence of Native American occupation of the area can be found in the enigmatic petroglyphs, some of which we will visit. Rising above the desert lowlands are the La Sal Mountains of eastern Utah and Grand Mesa, the world’s largest flat-topped mountain. Vegetation in the region ranges from the desert shrubs and cacti around Grand Junction, Colorado and Moab, Utah to the pine forests of the La Sal Mountains and the spruce-fir forests of Grand Mesa. The Grand Mesa has been the site of research by Professor Sullivan and his students. They have cored many of the lakes and wetlands on the mesa and have used the sediments from those sites to study climate and vegetation changes over the last 25,000 years. Readings Required text: Naturalist’s Guide to Canyon Country, David Williams and Gloria Brown, 2013, Canyonlands Natural History Association. Course readings will include additional basic introductory material on the geology, cultural history, and environmental history of the region provided by the instructor. Learning Outcomes • Students will be able to discuss the geologic history of the Colorado Plateau and the Rocky Mountains, and identify specific geologic formations that illustrate that history. • Students will be able to identify and distinguish between the dominant and most common vegetation types in the region. • Students will be able to identify the most common plant species in the region. • Students will be able to identify and discuss several lines of scientific enquiry used to reconstruct past environmental change. • Students will develop an understanding of the impacts of past climate and environmental change on the environment of the Colorado Plateau. • Students will be able to distinguish between qualitative, quantitative, and anecdotal forms of analysis and evidence, and demonstrate skills for interpreting quantitative information. • My primary goal for this class is to create an engaging, inclusive, and stimulating learning environment that will foster your interest in the material we will discuss. I will try to incorporate a variety of approaches to accommodate different learning styles, and I encourage you to talk with me if you have comments or suggestions to improve your experience in this class. • Please note that in accordance with University of Denver policy there is a zero tolerance policy with regard to drugs and/or alcohol for the duration of this course. Evaluation Evaluation will consist of a map quiz, a final exam, and class participation. During this class we will be traveling through western Colorado and Eastern Utah. Your ability to put the various locations that we will visit into a spatial context will greatly increase your understanding of the topics we will discuss and your enjoyment of the class. With this in mind, I will provide you with a map of the area and a list of places you should be able to locate on the map. The map quiz will account for 15% of the final grade. The final exam will be given before we depart for Denver on the last day of class and will cover material discussed during the class. The format of the final examination will include multiple choice questions and short essays, as well as a section on plant and rock identification. The final exam will account for 75% of the final grade. Class participation, including participation in discussions and group exercises, and contribution to group camp activities, will count for 10% of the final grade.

    Social Studies: From a Sense of Self to a Sense of the World Pamela Brillante and Sue Mankiw Preschool Through Primary Grades A Sense of Place: Human Geography in the Early Childhood Classroom Walking downtown is four-year-old Abby’s favorite thing to do with her dad. Today is the first day that Abby hasn’t had to wear a coat on their walk. They walk under shady trees and stop to notice all the white flowers blooming outside the library where Abbey and her grandma go for story hour with Abby’s friends. The smell of lilies of the valley permeates the air. As they get closer to downtown, Dad picks Abby up while they cross the broken sidewalk near the post office so she does not get hurt on the rough terrain. It can be difficult for her to navigate uneven ground with her walker. Approaching the town’s music stage, Abby tugs on her dad’s sleeve; she wants to hear the musicians playing their shiny instruments. Abby points out the sign that says STOP on the busy street corner by Poppy’s Bakery. The nice women who work there always talk to Abby and let her pick out a cookie while her dad buys warm, delicious-smelling bread for Sunday dinner. Abby loves going to “her downtown,” where she knows she is part of the community of friends, neighbors, and merchants she meets along the way. 1, 2, 3 ® © iStock.com/ktaylorg 2 Young Children July 2015 lthough they may not realize it, Abby physical world around them and in the social and cultural and her dad are studying geography on their world they share with others.

  • Geography and Early China Physical Geography
    1/11/2017 Geography and Early China The Big Idea Chinese civilization began with the Shang dynasty along the Huang He. Main Ideas • China’s physical geography made farming possible but travel and communication difficult. • Civilization began in China along the Huang He and Chang Jiang rivers. • China’s first dynasties helped Chinese society develop and made many other achievements. Physical Geography Varied Landscape • China covers an area of almost 4 million square miles. • The Gobi desert lies in the north. • Low-lying plains in the east make up one of the world’s largest farming areas. • Mountain ranges lie in the west, including the Plateau of Tibet and the Qinling Shandi. There was limited contact between people in the east and west. • The weather and temperature vary from cold and dry to wet and humid, and monsoons can bring up to 250 inches of rain each year. 1 1/11/2017 Two Rivers of China Huang He Chang Jiang • Also called the Yellow River • The longest river in Asia; also called the Yangzi River • Nearly 3,000 miles long across northern China • Flows across central China from Tibet to the Pacific • Often floods, and has been Ocean referred to as “China’s sorrow” because of the destruction Civilization Begins Farming • Frequent flooding made the land fertile around the Chang Jiang and Huang He rivers. • Along with farming, the Chinese people hunted, fished, and domesticated animals. Early Settlements • Some small villages along the rivers grew into larger cities. • Separate cultures developed in the north and the south. Over time people learned to dig wells and use potter’s wheels.

    South Central College GEOG 101 Introduction to Physical Geography Common Course Outline Course Information Description This course is an introduction to physical geography that systematically examines the spatial patterns and interrelationships among physical elements at the earth's surface. Students will study the earth's physical environment, its systems, and the physical processes that drive them through study of weather, climate, natural vegetation, soil, and landforms. However, these topics are not just discussed independently since the course concentrates on understanding the integration of these areas of the natural world. Geography focuses on human activities, and so the course will highlight some of the basic interactions between human activity and the natural environment. Current issues will be discussed and a scientific foundation provided for understanding global warming and other critical environmental issues.

Received: 12 September 2017; Accepted: 7 November 2017; Published: 17 November 2017 Abstract: One of the primary objectives of physical geography is to determine how natural phenomena produce specific territorial patterns. Therefore, physical geography offers substantial scientific input into territorial planning for sustainability. A key area where physical geography can contribute to land management is in the delimitation of landscape units. Such units are fundamental to formal socio-economic zoning and management in territorial planning. However, numerous methodologies—based on widely varying criteria—exist to delineate and map landscapes. We have selected five consolidated methodologies with current applications for mapping the landscape to analyse the different role of physical geography in each: (1) geomorphological landscape maps based on landforms; (2) geosystemic landscape maps; (3) Landscape Character Assessment; (4) landscape studies based on visual landscape units; (5) landscape image-pair test. We maintain that none of these methodologies are universally applicable, but that each contributes important insights into landscape analysis for land management within particular biogeophysical and social contexts.

    THE BASICS OF GEOMORPHOLOGY: KEY CONCEPTS Supporting Website Material This website provides material to supplement the text and is organized by chapter with the complete reference list given at the end. Diagrams and tables that are essential for understanding the text are contained in the book. For each chapter the synopsis is given together with additional material, which includes figures and tables, compiled to amplify the dis- cussion in the text, relevant articles in Progress in Physical Geography, which is an excellent resource to pursue particular themes, and a list of the concepts given in bold from the index (together with the references cited in each chapter). The complete reference list is given at the end. 1 Introduction: Concepts and Geomorphology Any discipline has concepts that are key for its progress. For geomorphol- ogy these need to be explicitly stated and consistently understood for what they are. We set them within the evolving history of geomorphology and the changing techniques and understanding that have been involved. This demonstrates the fashioning surges that have characterized the discipline and which complicate identification of those concepts which endure and which remain basic to the present and future study of geomorphology.
