Trending and Emerging
- Urban Resilience and Green Spaces:
There is a growing emphasis on how urban environments adapt to challenges such as the COVID-19 pandemic, with a focus on the role of green spaces and community well-being. - Social Inclusion and Vulnerability:
Research on marginalized communities, such as Roma populations, and their socio-economic challenges is increasingly featured, reflecting a broader societal concern for inclusion and equity. - Environmental Justice and Sustainability:
Emerging studies are focusing on the intersection of environmental issues and social justice, particularly in relation to energy transitions and the implications for vulnerable communities. - Technological Integration in Geography:
The use of advanced technologies such as Lidar and GIS for spatial analysis is becoming more prevalent, enabling more precise and comprehensive geographical studies. - Impact of Global Crises on Local Geographies:
Themes addressing the implications of global events, such as military conflicts and pandemics, on local geographical contexts are increasingly relevant, showcasing the interconnectedness of global and local dynamics.
Declining or Waning
- Industrial Geography:
Research focusing on traditional industries and their geographical implications has seen a decline, as the journal shifts towards more contemporary issues such as sustainability and urban development. - Historical Geography:
Although there have been publications on historical aspects, the focus on historical geography is diminishing, possibly due to a growing emphasis on current and pressing geographical issues. - Transportation Studies:
While transportation remains a relevant topic, studies specifically examining traditional transportation systems or infrastructure have appeared less frequently, reflecting a shift towards broader spatial mobility themes. - Rural Geography:
Research centered on rural areas has become less frequent, as the journal's recent issues show an increasing focus on urban settings and metropolitan dynamics. - Demographic Studies:
Although demographic trends are still relevant, specific studies on demographic changes without a spatial or environmental context have reduced in prominence.
