GEO101 Physical Systems at the Global Scale Level Credits Availability Core for BSc Geography; NES Approved for BA Geography; Dual with Mathematics; approved as an unrestricted module choice for other degrees Semester Autumn Prerequisites None Description This course is intended to provide an introduction to the general principles of physical geography for students with diverse backgrounds. Using a systems-based approach to physical geography, four environmental systems will be examined: the atmosphere, the hydrosphere, the geosphere and the cryosphere. The final part of the course will consider the interactions between physical systems and also the causes and consequences of systems change, such as climatic change, over time and space.

GEOGRAPHY Geography serves as a bridge between the physical and social sciences. Empahsis is on the nature and distribution of environmental systems, human activities, relations between them, and their variation from place to place. Geography's uniqueness is not derived from the subject matter studied, but from the discipline's technical and methodological approach to the locational analysis of phenomena. The geography major is performance-based with a research project required for graduation. The department offers four track options within the major and two geography minors. The track options for a geography major are general geography, geoarchaeology, geographic techniques, and cultural resource management (CRM). The two geography minors are physical geography and cultural geography. A minor in physical geography emphasizes the processes and forces that effect the earth's surface and the interaction between the environment and the humans living within that environment. Physical geography includes examination of the areas of meteorology, climatology, biogeography, pedology, and geomorphology. A minor in cultural geography concentrates on examining the spatial patterns of humans on earth and their demographics, distribution, economics, politics, language, religion, ethnicity, behavior, settlement patterns, transportation systems, cultural patterns, and urbanization.

The Nature of Geography (Systems) This sub-organizer contains the following sections: Prescribed Learning Outcomes Suggested Instructional Strategies Suggested Assessment Strategies Recommended Learning Resources PRESCRIBED LEARNING OUTCOMES It is expected that students will: identify the physical components of the atmosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere, and lithosphere describe the major interactions among the atmosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere, and lithosphere identify the social, economic, cultural, and political components of human systems explain how physical and human systems interact within an ecosystem SUGGESTED INSTRUCTIONAL STRATEGIES Identify and explain components of each sphere by presenting examples from a variety of sources. In groups, ask students to research published inventories of the four spheres for specific locations. Have them identify and describe the components of each sphere represented in each location. Groups then present their findings to the class. Divide the class into groups and assign one sphere to each group. Have groups walk around the school or community to identify characteristics of each sphere as they are represented in the local ecosystem. Ask groups to present their findings to the class. As a class, discuss and list any interactions among the spheres. Challenge students to use information technology such as the Internet to access current information about interrelationships between human and physical systems. Students identify relevant web site addresses and record these in their portfolios.

Geography provides a broad understanding of the processes that unite people, places and environments. Geographers explore the diverse regions of the contemporary world in pursuit of global understanding. They tie together the study of human spatial organizations and cultural landscapes with an in-depth investigation of the earth’s landforms, climates and vegetation. Their methods range from fieldwork in foreign areas to advanced information technologies like computerized geographic information systems. Geography graduates find rewarding careers in environmental analysis and planning, business, government agencies and education.

It is an area of little local relief, with an irregular drainage system and many lakes, as well as some of the oldest exposed rocks in the United States. The terrain of the N United States was formed by the great continental ice sheets that covered N North America during the late Cenozoic Era. The southern edge of the ice sheet is roughly traced by a line of terminal moraines extending west from E Long Island and then along the course of the Ohio and Missouri rivers to the Rocky Mts.; land north of this line is covered by glacial material. Alaska and the mountains of NW United States had extensive mountain glaciers and were heavily eroded. Large glacial lakes (see Lake Bonneville under Bonneville Salt Flats Lahontan, Lake
