Abstract:
Abstract India represents an intricate tapestry of population substructure shaped by geography, language, culture, and social stratification. Although geography closely correlates with genetic structure in other parts of the world, the strict endogamy imposed by the Indian caste system and the large number of spoken languages add further levels of complexity to understand Indian population structure. To date, no study has attempted to model and evaluate how these factors have interacted to shape the patterns of genetic diversity within India. We merged all publicly available data from the Indi

Abstract:
This paper attempts to create a first comprehensive analysis of the integrated characteristics of contemporary Indian cities, using scaling and geographical analysis over a set of diverse indicators. We use data of urban agglomerations in India from the Census 2011 and from a few other sources to characterize patterns of urban population density, infrastructure, urban services, crime and technological innovation. Many of the results are in line with expectations from urban theory and with the behaviour of analogous quantities in other urban systems in both high and middle-income nations. India

Lack of education among the scheduled castes (SC) population in India may be the main reason for remaining at the lower end of the social structure. Therefore, this study attempts to explore the changing trends in literacy among the SC to find out the determinants of higher education and to explore the major reasons for never enrolling or discontinuing/dropping out from educational institutions among the SC population in India. Using the data from the Census of India and also from National Sample Survey and employing both bivariate and multivariate analysis, the results reveal that though ther

The dynamics and changes in the pattern of the interstate migration system in India during the post-Independence period are explored. Three major perspectives, namely (i) the demographic effectiveness of net migration in changing the regional and ethnic balance of population distribution, (ii) the principal components or regional subsystems of in- and out-migration based on similarities in the origin and destination areas of migrants, and (iii) the shift-share components of the change in net migration are adopted to provide insight into the changing structure of interstate population movements

Abstract:
This chapter considers the unique religious and racial dynamics of Atlanta and its location in the U.S. South. Moving beyond the well-known black-and-white binary, it examines the historic experiences of Asian immigrants in the South and how they negotiated this dynamic. Contemporary immigrants, and particularly Hindu immigrants, have carved out space for themselves religiously and geographically in this historically segregated landscape. The chapter reviews the geography of Hindu Atlanta by looking at residential patterns and the religious institutions and informal groups that Hindus have established in the metropolitan area. While temple-building is important in India, it takes on new significance in the United States, where establishing a Hindu temple announces the community’s presence to the rest of the population and chips away at the Protestant hegemony of the South. Because these sites are the most visible sites of Hindu practice, they have received the most attention from scholarly researchers and local media outlets. This tendency to focus on institutional sites of Hinduism overlooks the central role that domestic practice takes in the tradition. This study of the Guptas’ and their community’s practices helps correct this imbalance in scholarly and popular conceptions of Hinduism in the United States and locates much of the transnational community and its formation within members’ homes.

Abstract:
A massive continent, stretching from Turkey and the eastern shores of the Mediterranean and Red Seas to the Pacific, from the Indian Ocean to the vast desert of Mongolia right through the towering Himalayas and the plateau of Tibet, Asia is a colossal geographic collage. One can find in Asia virtually every form of landscape, both real and imagined, including James Hilton’s (1933) Shangri-La, planted in the imaginative geography of Western travelers and tourists (also see Bishop 1989). As the cradle of three of the world’s early civilizations, Asia is a magnificent tapestry of cultural diversity. Asia has also given birth to all the major institutional religions that are practiced today: Hinduism, Buddhism, Judaism, Christianity, Islam, and others. As such, few would deny its enormous historical significance and contributions to human progress in every respect—spiritually, materially, and intellectually. Home to some 60 per cent of the world’s population, Asia is a human mosaic that is unparalleled in history (Table 39.1). So it is hardly surprising that Asia offers endless research challenges and opportunities, in virtually every field of geographical studies. With this in mind, this chapter is divided into four major sections. First, we provide a brief journalistic survey of major regional political events across Asia. This is followed by a segment on the state of Asian geography in America in the second part. Third, we discuss some of the developments, trends, and research themes in Asian geography in America during the period 1988–2000. Finally, we conclude the chapter with some general remarks on the vexing question of what lies ahead for regional geography. We explore this question not because we foresee an imminent demise of regional geography, but because some of the remarkable developments during the 1990s have definite impacts on the way we see and do regional geography.

It includes a history of the modern indigenous population, who identify as either Houma or one of several other groups: the Pointe au Chien Indian Tribe or one of two branches of the Biloxi Chitimacha Confederation of Muskogees, and provides an account of the arrival of Francophone Europeans, including Acadians, to the Lafourche Basin. It also considers the implications that slavery had for both historic and modern demographics. Finally, it describes the modern settlement patterns, the means by which people make a living, and the distribution of ethnic groups in the area.

Abstract:
During the summer of 1999, references to South Asian culture abounded within London—from the painstaking recreation of Hindi film star Dimple Kapadia’s bedroom in the Selfridges department store to McDonald’s introduction of the Lamb McKorma sandwich. This so-called “Indian Summer” served as a backdrop to the prominent commercial and critical success of British Asian musicians such as Talvin Singh, Nitin Sawhney, and Asian Dub Foundation and the emergence of British Asians in the mainstream media as poster children for Britain’s campaign to present itself as a vibrant cosmopolis. However this celebration of British Asian musicians, writers, artists, and actors sat uneasily alongside the socioeconomic reality of the Bangladeshi population in East London. The author explores two concurrent events—the Arts Worldwide Bangladesh Festival and the 000: British Asian Cultural Provocation Exhibition at the Whitechapel Gallery—and attempts to navigate the quagmire of geography, music, and cultural identity they exposed.

Abstract:
Land use and land cover change has a slow but prolonged impact on various aspects of environment on local, regional and global scales. In developing countries especially population pressure and food demand have compelled conversion of wetlands to built-up and agricultural lands. One such unique example is the East Kolkata Wetlands (EKWs) located on the eastern fringes of Kolkata City in India where such land cover change is very intense and rapid. In this study, wetland conversions in EKWs from 1972 to 2011 were analyzed with four Landsat images using the Geographic Object-Based Image Analysis (GeOBIA) and a post-classification comparison. Results suggested that wetland areas decreased by 17.9 percent during the study period. The western part of the wetlands saw the maximum conversion of wetlands to built-up areas with time, whereas the east and south experienced more of wetlands to agricultural and other land conversions

Abstract:
The intricate coastline of Southeast Asia, and its many islands and island groups—Indonesia alone has over 17 500 islands—contains 32 per cent (91 700 km2) of the world’s shallow coral reefs (Spalding, Ravilious, and Green 2001). While sedimentary regimes appear to restrict reef development in the East China Sea, the Gulf of Thailand, the South China Sea, and around the island of Borneo, reefs are well developed elsewhere. Fringing reefs characterize island coastlines, and there are also barrier reefs and, in the deeper waters of the South China Sea and to the east, atoll-like reef structures. Although the region has a distinguished history of reef studies—in which the pioneering work of R. B. Seymour Sewell, J. H. F. Umbgrove, and Ph. H. Kuenen on the Snellius expedition (1929–30) come particularly to mind—the lack of detailed information about many areas remains considerable. The coral reefs, and their associated shallow-water ecosystems, within this region are the product of both historical and contemporary processes. A wide range of hypotheses to explain coral distributions have been proposed. These include the importance of the widespread availability of suitable shallow substrates for coral growth with submergence histories determined by regional tectonic and sea-level dynamics (e.g. Hall and Holloway 1998), the variety of habitats present (e.g. Wallace and Wolstenholme 1998), and the more contemporary roles of high sea-surface temperatures and ocean current circulation patterns, including the dynamics of western Pacific Ocean–eastern Indian Ocean connectivity (Tomascik et al. 1997a). Both sets of controls show wide variation across the region. Thus, for example, geological settings range from tectonically stable platforms to rapidly uplifting plate collision zones of considerable seismic and volcanic activity. Present-day environments vary from equable, tranquil interior seas to cycloneand swell wave-dominated environments on the region’s margins. Added to these controls are the perturbations introduced by, for example, periodic coral bleaching and biological catastrophes (e.g. Crown of Thorns starfish infestations; Lane 1996). Taken as a whole, therefore, the coral reefs of Southeast Asia demonstrate enormous complexity and considerable dynamism. These reef resources are, however, under considerable pressure from large, and growing, populations and economic development.
