Urban land use in Australia, 1966

Temporal Aspects of Urban Population Densities: Brisbane, 1861–1966

“…It can be established that the 1966 overall density for Brisbane is low for its population even within the context of a low urb,an density continent, It cannot, however, be established that Brisbane's density has always been comparatively low without constructing equivalent time-series for other cities, but this is likely to have been the case. A density-population, semi-logarithmic regression equation was derived from 63 UCs in 1966 (Marsden, 1970). This included all the new criteria UCs except those with densities of less than 500 persons per square mile or populations under 1,000.…”

Collective care and climate repair

“…When I first responded to this work by Chantel, it was in a short speech during the (online) Institute of Australian Geographers conference in 2021. There was a chord chiming through that conference, played by Dr Chantel Carr, Dr Sophie Webber (see Webber et al, 2022), Blatman (forthcoming), and others, around how to navigate, think and strategise with and against capitalism when doing critical geographical work on climate change and settler-colonialism. There is tension here.…”
