Gäu (district)
In the south German language (of the Alemannic-speaking area, or in Switzerland), a ''gäu'' landscape (''gäulandschaft'') refers to an area of open, level countryside. These regions typically have fertile soils resulting from depositions of loess (an exception is the ''Arme Gäue'' Poor Gäus"of the Baden-Württemberg Gäu). The intensive use of the ''Gäu'' regions for crops has displaced the originally wooded countryside (→''climax vegetation'' – in contrast with the steppe heath theory and disputed megaherbivore hypothesis). The North German equivalent of such landscapes is ''börde.'' See also * Gau (territory) – also gives the etymology and language history of ''Gäu'' * Gäu – regions with the name * Natural regions referred to as ''Gäu plateaus'': ** Neckar and Tauber Gäu Plateaus ** Gäu Plateaus in the Main Triangle ** Werra Gäu Plateaus * Gäuboden The Gäuboden (also referred to in German as the Dungau) is a region in Lower Bavaria in southern Germany ...

Population Growth
Population growth is the increase in the number of people in a population or dispersed group. Actual global human population growth amounts to around 83 million annually, or 1.1% per year. The global population has grown from 1 billion in 1800 to 7.9 billion in 2020. The UN projected population to keep growing, and estimates have put the total population at 8.6 billion by mid-2030, 9.8 billion by mid-2050 and 11.2 billion by 2100. However, some academics outside the UN have increasingly developed human population models that account for additional downward pressures on population growth; in such a scenario population would peak before 2100. World human population has been growing since the end of the Black Death, around the year 1350. A mix of technological advancement that improved agricultural productivity and sanitation and medical advancement that reduced mortality increased population growth. In some geographies, this has slowed through the process called the demographic tra ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
