Important role of research in geographical study

Research is a scientific and systematic inquiry to describe, explain, predict and control the observed phenomena.
Significance:
(i). Research in Careerism: To those students who are to write a master’s or Ph.D. thesis, research may mean careerism or a way to attain a high position in the social structure.
(ii).Research in Professional: To professionals in research methodology, research may mean a source of livelihood.
(iii).Research in Philosopher: To philosophers and thinkers, research may mean the outlet for new ideas and insights.
(iv). Research in Literal people: To literal men and women, research may mean the development of new styles and creative work.
(v). Research in Analysts and Intellectual: To analysts and intellectuals, research may mean the development of new theories.
(vi). Research in Government policy: Research provides the basis nearly all government policies in our economic system.
(vii). Research in Various operation and Planning: Research has its special significance in solving various operational and planning problems of business and industry.
(viii). Research in Scientists: Research is equally important for solving scientists in studying social relationships and in seeking answers to various social problems.
(ix). Research in Developing Knowledge: Research contributes to developing knowledge in a field or study.
(x). Research in New development: Research is a sort of formal training which enables one to understand the new development in one’s field in better way.

Behaviouralism in geography

Behaviouralism Behaviouralism is an approach in human geography that came to prominence in the human geography of the 1960s and 1970s. It goes out of the idea that people are the determining factor in the explanation of space. Behaviouralism tries to give an explanation of the spatiallity of human activities. And thereby they use a complex universally applicable model.  Definition of Behaviouralism: The particular aspect with which geographical content is analyzed using mathematical statistics & human sensitivity, is called behavioralism. Concept of Behaviouralism: The Behaviouralism revolution is a theoretical concept. Its theories are not based on assumptions, but are actually explored through ascending methods based on the experience of human behavior. An analysis of the significance of geographical issues in behavioral perspectives within a system, so therefore is no definite boundary to behavioral geography. The main purpose of behaviouralism geography is to in...

Concentric zone theory

Theories of City Structure-Concentric Zone Theory Introduction: The Concentric or Zonal Theory of urban landuse was first proposed in 1923 by E.W. Burgess. He was a sociologist. The idea behind the concentric model is that the development of a city takes place outwards from its central area in a series of concentric circles to form zones.  Assumption:        i.           Cultural & social heterogeneity of the population.       ii.           Commercial-industrial base to the economy of the city.     iii.           Private ownership of property & economic competition for space.     iv.           Expanding area & population of the city.       v.    ...

T-S Diagram

Definition: The diagram by which the salinity & temperature of the sea water are expressed is called T-S diagram. Prepared: T-S Diagram was prepared by Helland Harsenin (1916) with the objective to  determine the density of water at various depth. Characteristics: The Temperature ‘T’ & Salinity ‘S’ observed at the particular depth are represented by a single point in this diagram. The plotted points of T & S generally fall on a well defined curve, in which temperature & salinity decrease together. The density of water tends to increase with depth. In T-S Diagram, it may be observed that many combinations of temperature & salinity can yield the same density. In T-S Diagram, it may be observed that the density of water tends to increase with depth.  Diagrammatic Example: Significance: The T-S Diagram is a tool of great utility in Oceanography. The T-S Diagram is the way to visualize layering of water. The T-S Diagram helps in t...
