7 points: 2 + 2 + 1 + 2

North America. (2 points: 1 description + 1 description)

A1. Decentralization and suburbanization: population shift from the center city into the suburbs A2. Nuclei form around improved transportation that includes highways, interstates, and airports A3. Economic shift from industrialization to service-sector office parks

A4. Economic shift from industrialization or industries to high-technology operations or advanced

manufacturing

A5. Urban growth stimulated specialization and specialized centers outside the central business district

(CBD)

A6. Suburbs took on the roles more typically associated with CBDs

A7. Cheaper, more available, and easier to develop land in suburban areas

A8. Shifts in the spatial organization of production or the spatial organization of manufacturing

A9. Lack of planning or reduced regulation of land use in the urban periphery or unincorporated areas

B. Describe TWO ways that the spatial organization of commercial land use is different between the original CBD and an edge city. (2 points)

Original CBD

B. 1. High-density buildings and/or land use; skyscrapers

B. 2. Mixed land use (residential, commercial, office)

B. 3. More walkable, pedestrian oriented B. 4. Smaller shops and retail

B. 5. Older, more historic

B. 6. Brownfields

B. 7. Greater access to public transit B. 8. Parking garages

B. 9. Grid pattern

Edge City

a. Low density buildings and/or land use; low-rise office buildings, “campus” architecture

b. Specialized land use; dedicated to office buildings and retailing (little to no residential land use)

c. Pedestrian unfriendly (lack of sidewalks) d. Big box stores

e. Newer construction

f. Greenfield development

g. Dominated by automobile

h. Large, open parking lots

i. Curvilinear or nonlinear pattern

C. Describe ONE negative impact of edge city development on the environment. (1 point)

C1. New construction areas, or urban sprawl, may replace open space or farms

C2. Loss of natural and/or animal habitats, introduction of invasive or nonnative species

C3. Dependence on automobile or lack of public transportation can result in increased air pollution and

greenhouse gas emissions or a larger carbon footprint

C4. Impact on land because low-density development occupies more land than a high-density development

(more land used for roads, larger building footprints)

C5. Lack of parks, green spaces, and trees causes heat island effect

C6. Numerous roads and parking lots absorb heat and contribute to the heat island effect

C7. Waste, soil erosion, or pollution from construction sites

C8. More impervious surfaces created by new construction (buildings, roads, parking lots) cause more

storm water runoff and flooding

In the situation both parents are very concerned about earthquake and volcanoes. They don’t know if they should move to Hawaii o

ycow [4]

There are some aspects; both of the areas known as Hawaii and California get earthquakes, and they are both in the Ring of Fire. Hawaii is on a volcanic island chain, which has volcanoes, yet the eruptions are subtle. California, on the other hand, doesn't have volcanoes, yet is prone to more earthquakes than Hawaii. If it was my choice, I would move to Hawaii. Nice weather and people beats out the earthquakes and volcanoes.

After 2004 polish exports increased when

Effectus [21]

After 2004, Polish exports increased after the country entered the European Union.

Poland, as multiple other countries of Central and Eastern Europe, has communist past. When the communism fell, Poland struggled for some time, as the country needed to change a lot in its functioning, especially the economy and the development of relations with other countries. Despite the country doing everything right, it was still not able to reach its potential because of the limitations.
This all changed when the country entered the European Union in 2004. The borders opened up, so Poland had access without any limitations with the other countries of the EU, and through it with lot of markets across the world because of the EU's trading agreements. Poland used the opportunity, so its exports increased significantly, and since there was larger market and demand, the Polish companies were producing more as well, skyrocketing the economy.
Countries that experienced similar development as Poland are:
Hungary
Lithuania
Latvia
Estonia
Czechia
