Consider Cronon’s study of wilderness, as discussed by Kanazawa (2023). In what ways, if any, would it have been appropriate for Cronon to have used quantitative methods in his study of the concept of wilderness, and to what end? Why were qualitative methods particularly appropriate for the study, given the nature of his research topic?

- When a body of cold air near earth’s surface moves into a region occupied by warmer air, the point of intersection is known as a cold front.

Does this rotation tend to bring relatively warm air toward the poles or toward the lower latitudesarrow_forwardAs the atmosphere and ocean move, they are deflected due to the spin of the earth.
