What are the spatial dimension and ecological dimension of the arctic?
The spatial dimension In the study of geography, the spatial dimension describes and compares patterns of where environmental factors are located. These patterns are determined by using quantitative and qualitative research to compare areas with one another in relation to a particular variable. The distribution of the population, availability of natural resources and levels of adult literacy are examples of variables that could be used in spatial analysis. Social injustice is often a cause of spatial inequality, however, disparities between geographical regions can also be a result of natural factors. Studying geography from a spatial perspective could therefore involve looking at two different geographical areas (e.g. Australia and Angola) in relation to a certain variable (e.g. infant mortality). To identify factors which may explain why the rate of infant mortality in Australia (4.63 deaths per 1000 live births) is significantly lower than in Angola (185.36 per 1000 live births) we
