Trending and Emerging
- Resilience and Adaptation in Urban Spaces:
There is a growing focus on resilience strategies in urban environments, particularly in deindustrialized areas and in the context of climate change, highlighting how communities adapt to socio-economic and environmental shifts. - LGBTQ+ Studies and Geography:
Research examining the spatial experiences of LGBTQ+ individuals is on the rise, reflecting broader societal discussions about inclusion, representation, and the impact of geography on identity and community. - Nature-Based Solutions and Environmental Management:
An increasing number of studies emphasize nature-based approaches to environmental management, particularly in coastal and urban settings, as communities seek sustainable solutions to ecological challenges. - Intersections of Migration, Tourism, and Identity:

The journal is witnessing a trend towards political ecology, particularly concerning water access and urban inequalities, which is crucial for understanding the implications of environmental governance in urban contexts.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Economic Geography:
Research specifically centered on conventional economic geography, such as industrial location and traditional economic activities, has seen a decline, possibly overshadowed by a focus on new economic models and alternative economies. - Static Historical Studies:
While historical geography remains relevant, studies that do not incorporate contemporary implications or dynamic analyses of historical contexts seem to be waning, as the journal leans towards research that connects past and present. - Basic Cartography without Theoretical Frameworks:
Papers that focus solely on cartographic techniques without engaging with theoretical or methodological advancements in geography are becoming less frequent, indicating a preference for more integrative approaches. - Localized Studies with Limited Contextualization:
Research that examines specific localities without broader contextualization in terms of regional or global implications appears to be declining, as the journal increasingly emphasizes interconnectedness in geographical research.
