He demonstrated that there is an abundance of β€˜ remote ’ sites, in contrast to the official view that such sites were increasingly hard to find.
Using what would now be called GIS skills, Openshaw (1980) examined over 13 000 1 km grid squares in the UK which intersect the coastline and related these to data from the 1971 Census (which were made available for such grid squares).

Ideally one could construct a model of the fossil to test out these various functions in experiments, but the number of examples where the analysis has been pursued this far are limited.
Most animals today do seem to have bodies that accord well with the functions they have to carry out to survive: flyers are aerodynamically efficient, active swimmers have suitable streamlining, herbivorous mammals have teeth appropriate for grinding plant food, and so on.
Of course it can never be known whether the right answer has been reached (unless somebody dredges up a β€˜ living fossil ’ from the depths of the ocean) β€” there are only varying degrees of probability.

Equally, the improvements in fortification needed to withstand their effects β€” thick stone walls, inner as well as outer defences β€” required incomes greater than those of simple lords.
This effectively restricted their use to the wealthy and to those whose claim to assistance under the ban was incontrovertible.
The net effect was that, given dedication, princes β€” Louis VI, Geoffrey le Bel, Alphonse-Jourdain β€” could subdue rebellious castellans within their own demesnes, and could build castles of their own which were impregnable to all but lengthy and sustained attack.

Yet the logic of the definition suggested that it would benefit especially kings, whose competence to declare war could not be impugned: thus Thibaud of Blois failed to persuade the monks of Marmoutier that they owed him service when he fought against Louis VI; they claimed discretion in the matter; and in 1184, the mighty Philip of Alsace hesitated to commit to battle the army he had summoned against Philip Augustus, through fear that its ranks might melt away.

Fortunately, considerable high-quality work has already begun on the legal, political and institutional aspects of global environmental change (see, for instance, Nitze 1990).
All too often, it seems that the coupling of an as yet imperfect scientific understanding to policy-making is tenuous (see Table 9.2).

All was linked to the sense of a new departure, a " new style ", a " new regime in politics " and a new team at the helm: as well as a new leader, the party had by the middle of 1912 a new Chief Whip, Party Chairman, party treasurer, principal agent, press adviser, and an almost entirely new team of Whips and organizers.
Improved morale would also make possible organizational advances outside parliament, all linked to the issue of Ulster, and with the sights fixed firmly on the next election, an election that would make or break the Union, the Empire and Law's leadership of the party.

The absolute difference between the two figures seems to be due to two different factors: absorption by the oceans and other reductions in carbon stocks in living biota, the latter being strongly affected by human activities since the Industrial Revolution.
But calculations of the total carbon released by fossil fuel combustion imply that, if all such carbon remained in the atmosphere, the concentration would have increased by twice as much.

By allowing an intent to cause grievous bodily harm to suffice for a murder conviction, the law is violating a general principle, turning the most serious of its offences into a constructive crime.
In terms of principle, the rule requires justification because it departs from the principle of correspondence (see Chapter 5.2(a)), namely that the fault element in a crime should relate to the consequences prohibited by that crime.
Why should it be necessary to β€˜ construct ’ a murder conviction out of this lesser intent?

For geographers β€” who span the conventional (and now archaic) dichotomy between the natural and the environmental sciences β€” all of these aspects need to be woven together to anticipate the likely spatial patterns of the effects of massive change, the redistributions in trade, health and wealth which they will bring about and the β€˜ knock on ’ effects these consequences themselves will have on society and the environment.
Yet the consequences of any significant changes are a matter of the utmost concern to planners and to politicians at all levels, the quantification of the costs and benefits of alternative policy strategies is very much a matter for economists, and the adaptation of societies to massive change is a particular interest to sociologists and others.
For social scientists, then, environmental monitoring and prediction are a matter of considerable significance, especially as β€˜ globalization ’ of markets and economies proceeds.
