Who among the following geographers specifically emphasized on climatic determinism ?
Answer: C
Ellsworth Huntington specifically emphasised climatic determinism. In Civilization and Climate he argued that climate, with stimulating temperature and storminess, accounts for the rise of civilisations and for human energy and progress.
Ratzel founded anthropogeography and spoke of the influence of the environment more broadly. Semple popularised environmental determinism in English with the influence of geographic environment generally. Griffith Taylor proposed 'stop and go determinism', a modified view, not an emphasis on climate alone.
