LANDSCAPE GEOGRAPHY: THE OLD NAME FOR THE NEW SCIENCE, OR RIVAVAL OF THE ALL-BUT-FORGOTTEN?
Journal Title: Український географічний журнал - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue
Abstract
The content, specific character and tasks of the landscape geography are discussed from two perspectives – the history of landscape science during 20th century and the expansion of its research field in the early 21st century. At the present stage the distinction of landscape geography within physical geography and within landscape science seems reasonable in terms of specificity of complex part of physical geography, and of geographical part of modern landscape science.
