Unit 1: The Science of Where
Across
- 1. method that brings change
- 4. exact place
- 8. cannot be readily adapted by a pop. initially but spreads through adaptation
- 12. shows the pattern of one variable by using various colors and shadings
- 13. orbits the earth at exact speed as the earth rotates
- 14. locations that are responsible for the creation and transmission of "pop" culture via tech.
- 18. this is learned, shared, transmitted, social, uses symbols and ideas, meets human needs, adaptive, and cumulative
- 20. created for navigation with straight lines
- 22. ex. airplane tracking, shipping tracking, google maps
- 23. using tech. to observe a location or object from a distance
- 24. originally made for the military, produces a signal that indicates the exact time and position
- 25. climate, water-source, soil
- 26. areas people live that have common physical or cultural characteristics
- 28. diff objects interact in space that's affected by distance
- 30. move a type of orbit that moves quickly and orbits the earth once every 90 mins.
Down
- 2. ex.corner of the road
- 3. can image the entire earth as it orbits
- 5. each dot represents one feature
- 6. background history
- 7. single attributes of culture
- 9. diffusion of an actual movement of actual people who have adopted cultural ideas who carry it to new
- 10. this type of map shows borders of countries and names of the earth's features
- 11. ideas spread to certain individuals or places which then spreads to a general pop
- 15. shows changes in variables over distance, tempt., and elevation
- 16. when ideas or innovations spread from its hearth to other places on Earth
- 17. measure of how much distance interferes with inetractions
- 19. do not reflect geographical particularities nor historical events
- 21. large ecosystems
- 27. a projection that distorts shapes but represents size much more accurately
- 29. a type of diffusion that involves ideas spreading outwards affecting almost everyone in a pop.
- 31. projection slightly distorted all properties
