In-depth notes explaining the importance, the distribution and the global pattern of storage of carbon. Also includes flows in the carbon cycle, carbon sequestration on land and in the oceans, and slow and fast carbon cycles

Includes an introduction to tropical rainforests , the water and carbon cycles in the Amazon Rainforest and how they are affected by natural factors. Also explains how human activity is affecting the carbon and water cycles in the Amazon Rainforest (using the Madeira River System case study), and management strategies to positively affect the cycles.

Includes an introduction to the Arctic Tundra, factors affecting the carbon and water cycles in the Arctic Tundra, the impact of the developing oil and gas industry on the cycles, and management strategies to moderate the impacts of the oil and gas industry in Prudhoe Bay, Alaska. also includes a summary of the similarities/differences between the Amazon Rainforest and Arctic Tundra in relation to changes in the cycles

In-depth notes explaining how human activity influences the water and carbon cycles, using the case studies of the Aral Sea and the River Kennet in South England. Also includes how land use change alters the flows and stores in the water and carbon cycles, as well as monitoring techniques for recording changes to the global cycles.

In-depth notes explaining how the water and carbon cycles are linked and interdependent via the earth's atmosphere, oceans, vegetation and soil, and the cryosphere, and the long term impact of climate change on the carbon and water cycles. Also explains global management strategies to protect the carbon cycle and water cycles.

Explains how diseases can be classified and their patterns mapped, and how the spread of disease is complex and influenced by a number of factors. Also explains how there is a relationship between physical factors and the prevalence of disease which can change over time (using the example of malaria), and how natural hazards can influence the outbreak and spread of disease (using the example of cholera in Haiti)

In-depth notes explains how as countries develop economically, the frequency of communicable diseases decreases while the prevalence of non-communicable diseases increases (through the epidemiological transition model). Includes the case study of China to explain how air pollution has an impact on the incidence of cancers, and the global and national solutions in dealing with this.

Extensive notes explaining the differences between prevalence and incidence, and morbidity and mortality. Uses the case study of the 2014 Ebola outbreak to demonstrate how communicable diseases have causes and impacts with mitigation and response strategies which have varying levels of success. Also uses the case study of CVD in the United Kingdom to explain how non-communicable diseases have causes and impacts with migration and response strategies which have varying levels of success.

In-depth notes explaining how increasing global mobility impacts the diffusion of disease and the ability to respond to it, at a variety of scales. Includes the case study of the SARS outbreak and the role of international organisations in combatting disease. Also explains how physical barriers have both positive and negative effects on mitigation strategies and response efforts in dealing with disease

In-depth notes explaining how nature has provided medicines to treat disease for thousands of years, including the case study of the Prunus Africana tree. Also talks about biopiracy and intellectual property, conservation issues relating to the international trade in medicinal plants, and the best ways to produce plants for medicinal use.

A case study about Haiti and their cholera epidemic: background, factors that helped increase the spread (environmental, human), impacts on population, strategies used to minimise impacts (national/international), and the role of international organisations such as the ICRC and British Red Cross

Hi, I wrote these notes as an ALevel Geography student who is predicted an A* and achieved a 9 in my Geography GCSE. These are extremely detailed (17 pages) but clear notes on everything covered in the specification on coastal landscapes. The subtitles include: 'The components of coastal landscape systems including energy flows;' 'Coastal landscapes are influenced by a range of physical factors;' 'Coastal sediment is supplied by a variety of sources;' 'How are coastal landforms developed?...
