TL;DR: In this paper, an in-class activity is presented which is designed to improve students' basic math, reading, and reasoning skills while at the same time involving them in the application and understanding of geographic concepts.
Abstract: An in-class activity is presented which is designed to improve students' basic math, reading, and reasoning skills while at the same time involving them in the application and understanding of geographic concepts. The activity is appropriate for a freshman-level course in human geography but should also be suitable for use in high schools or community colleges. The activity, which involves applying the concepts of natural increase of population, net migration, physiological and agricultural densities as well as urbanization, is completed by pairs or groups of students working cooperatively. The article begins by discussing the context within which the activity developed, its role in the curriculum, and the teaching challenges faced. It goes on to describe the development of the activity, its implementation in the classroom, the advantages of the cooperative in-class approach, and the learning outcomes obtained. Finally, the activity is provided in a form ready for use in the classroom.

TL;DR: In this paper, the degradation model consists Degradation coefficient per ecology unit, Total severity of degradation factor of per ecology units, physiological density (Population in the ratio of arable land) and ecological vulnerability.
Abstract: Degradation model is one of the mathematics models that investigates and predicts data for assessing the impact of development. Degradation model consist Degradation coefficient per ecology unit, Total severity of degradation factor of per ecology unit, physiological density (Population in the ratio of arable land) and ecological Vulnerability. In this survey, for studying environmental impact assessment, the first, domain of Horaman zone was divided into 140 networks, (2×2 cm2 on a topography map 1: 250000) which that per one network was 2500 hectare. Ecological vulnerability was calculated and classified by slope, height, hemisphere, herbaceous cover and settlement maps. In the next step, 24 factors of degradation in Horaman zone were identified and severity all of them calculated by topography map, field researches, advice of experts and participates of native people. Physiological density was estimated via dividing population of networks by splitting population of networks to arable land per network. Finally, regarding to table of degradation and Excel software, degradation coefficient was calculated and analyzed in each network. Degradation coefficient for all networks categorized into 6 classes and 3 sets based on fuzzy set theory. Therefore, all networks were compared together in respect of severity and measure of degradation and whole of the zone was spitted to three areas: A) capability of further development B) need to rebuild and restore and C) need to conservation. Accordingly, 47.1% of study areas prone to further development, 50.6% were need to restore and rebuild and 2.1% of studied areas need to conservation operation.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the relationship between landowner's share and land quality and physiological population density and showed that high landowner share can be associated with high land quality or high physiological density.
Abstract: Substantial variations in landowner's share under sharecropping arrangements are documented. Partial relationships between landowner's share and land quality and between landowner's share and physiological population density are explained by extensions of the competitive theory of share tenancy. It is shown that high landowner's share can be expected to be associated with high land quality and or high physiological density. The tendency for increases in population to be associated with increases in landlords' shares can be ameliorated by land-saving technological change.
