Later, it was used by Jean Gottmann in his landmark 1961 study, "Megalopolis: The Urbanized Northeastern Seaboard of the United States", to describe the chain of metropolitan areas along the northeastern seaboard of the US, extending from Boston, Massachusetts, through New York City, Philadelphia, and Baltimore and ending in Washington, D.C. and Northern Virginia. The latter is sometimes called the "BosWash megalopolis". The

pos: Megalopolis Megalopolis A megalopolis (sometimes called a megapolis; also megaregion, or supercity) is typically defined as a chain of roughly adjacent metropolitan areas, which may be somewhat separated or may merge into a continuous urban region. Emerging megalopolises in the developing world include the Pearl River Delta, which when formed will constitute the core part of a Southern China Coast megaregion; the Unified Jakarta-Bandung metro area forming the core of the Northern Java megaregion; and the Yangtze River Delta core, a part of a Central Chinese Coast megaregion. The term was used by Patrick Geddes in his 1915 book "Cities in

The publication coined terms like "BosWash", referring to predicted accretions of the Northeast, and "SanSan" (San Francisco to San Diego) for the urbanized region in Coastal California. The general concept for the area described by "BosWash" was first identified in French geographer Jean Gottmann's 1961 book "Megalopolis: The Urbanized Northeastern Seaboard of the United States", although the term "BosWash" did not appear in the work. BosNYWash is a

In 1996, the "Programa General de Desarollo Urbano del Distrito Federal" first proposed the concept of a "Megalopolis of Central Mexico", which was later expanded by PROAIRE, a metropolitan commission on the environment. A megalopolis is known in Spanish as a "circuito regional de ciudades" ("regional ring of cities"). The Megalopolis of Central Mexico includes the metropolitan areas of Mexico City, Puebla, Cuernavaca, Toluca and Pachuca, which may also form complex subregional rings

The National Geographic Society released a map in 1994 of the region at the time of the Revolutionary War and in present day, which borrowed Gottmann's book's title and referred to him by name. Senator Claiborne Pell wrote a full-length book entitled "Megalopolis Unbound" in 1966, which summarized and then expanded on the original book to outline his vision for a cohesive transportation policy in the region (of which his state, Rhode Island, is part).

Notably, she is credited with developing the concept for a procedure that would extend the lives of children born with Tetralogy of Fallot (the most common cause of blue baby syndrome). This concept was applied in practice as a procedure known as the Blalock-Thomas-Taussig shunt. The procedure was developed by Alfred Blalock and Vivien Thomas, who were Taussig's colleagues at the Johns Hopkins Hospital. Taussig is also known for her work

neg: Megalopolis megaregions in the United States and Canada. Literally, megalopolis in Greek means a city of exaggerated size where the prefix "megalo-" represents a quantity of exaggerated size. Megapolitan areas were explored in a July 2005 report by Robert E. Lang and Dawn Dhavale of the Metropolitan Institute at Virginia Tech. A later 2007 article by Lang and Nelson uses 20 megapolitan areas grouped into 10 megaregions. The concept is based on the original Megalopolis model. Modern interlinked ground transportation corridors, such as rail and highway, often aid in the development of megalopolises. Using these commuter passageways to travel throughout the

Wassily Leontief (1906–1999) is credited with developing this type of analysis and earned the Nobel Prize in Economics for his development of this model. Francois Quesnay had developed a cruder version of this technique called Tableau économique, and Léon Walras's work "Elements of Pure Economics" on general equilibrium theory also was a forerunner and made a generalization of Leontief's seminal concept.

Other bus lines operating in the megalopolitan area owned by national or international corporations have also appeared, such as BoltBus and Megabus. These ventures indicate not only the dual "independent nuclei"/"interlinked system" nature of the megalopolis, but also a broad public understanding of and capitalization on the concept.

This replacement fertility will depend on mortality rates and the sex ratio at birth, and varies from around 2.1 in developed countries to over 3.0 in some developing countries. The American sociologist and demographer Kingsley Davis is credited with coining the term but it was used earlier by George Stolnitz, who stated that the concept of a stationary population dated back to 1693. A mathematical description was given by James Mirrlees. In the late 1960s ZPG

When the in balance, CO2 emissions and absorption in carbon sinks are roughly the same, but when disturbed, possibly large changes in the ecosystem ensue. He was a founding co-chair

neg: Synthetic personalisation Synthetic personalisation Synthetic personalisation is the process of addressing mass audiences as though they were individuals through inclusive language usage. It developed from critical discourse analysis (CDA), a branch of sociolinguistics concentrating upon how power is articulated. Norman Fairclough, credited with developing the concept, calls it "a compensatory tendency to give the impression of treating each of the people 'handled' "en masse" as an individual. Examples would be air travel ("have a nice day"), [and] restaurants ("welcome to Wimpy!")" (2001: 52). The use of second person pronouns contributes significantly to the process of synthetic personalisation within the mass media. It

neg: Political capital refers to a politician’s credibility and reliability. This form of capital is accumulated by maintaining consistent policy positions and ideological views. Representative capital refers to a politician’s influence in policy-setting. This form of capital is accumulated through experience, seniority, and serving in leadership positions. Thus, political capital—reputational and representative—is the product of relationships between opinion (public impressions), policy (legislative rewards/penalties), and political judgement (prudent decision-making). Pierre Bourdieu is often credited with developing the most popular theories of political capital (as well as social capital) in his 1991 book "Language and Symbolic Power".
