Time on the globe What is Physical Geography? 1. Fundamental questions of physical geography So, what is Physical/Environmental Geography about? If you think about the world we live in (the material aspect of the world, to be specific), you'll probably agree that it may be roughly divided into (1) things of natural origin, and (2) things of cultural origin, i.e. created by people. Natural things are also called physical (in the broad sense, meaning non-human) or environmental. One way to answer the question above physical geography is about the physical elements of our world: landforms, soils, rivers, air masses, ecosystems, and so on. The problem with this definition is that every major environmental phenomenon is also studied by its own respective branch of science. Indeed, as the table below shows, landforms are the subject of geomorphology, weather is studied by meteorology, oceans and rivers - by hydrology, etc. Physical Elements of the Environment Science Rocks Geology Landforms Geomorphology Soils Pedology Flora, Fauna

National Geography Standards The National Geography Standards were established to form a framework that provides guidelines on what students should know about geography. The 18 standards listed below have been categorized into six essential elements. The World in Spatial Terms The geographically informed person knows and understands: report information from a spatial perspective. Indicators: 1. Learn how to make maps, globes, graphs, etc. 2. Describe characteristics, functions, and applications of maps, globes, and other images. 3. Identify advantages and disadvantages of maps and other images. 4. Identify locations of places, as well as physical and human features. 5. Use mental maps to answer geographic questions. 6. Analyze the spatial organization of people and places on Earth. Places and Regions The geographically informed person knows and understands: Indicators: 1. Describe physical characteristics of a place. 2. Describe human characteristics of a place. 3. Compare characteristics of communities or regions.

FUNDAMENTALS OF PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY HOME FUNDAMENTALS ONLINE TEXTBOOK GLOSSARY ... ABOUT CHAPTER 10: Introduction to the Lithosphere (v). Soil Classification Introduction Soil Classification Systems have been developed to provide scientists and resource managers with generalized information about the nature of a soil found in a particular location. In general, environments that share comparable soil forming factors produce similar types of soils. This phenomenon makes classification possible. Numerous classification systems are in use worldwide. We will examine the systems commonly used in the United States and Canada. United States Soil Classification System The first formal system of soil classification was introduced in the United States by Curtis F. Marbut in the 1930s. This system, however, had some serious limitations, and by the early 1950s the United States Soil Conservation Service began the development of a new method of soil classification. The process of development of the new system took nearly a decade to complete. By 1960, the review process was completed and the
