Human and Physical Geography

• Timeline-Young earth vs Billions of Years old

• Paleoclimatology-study of atmospheric process, extinctions, ice sheets, microfossils, 

• Cartography-Maps, charts compass, magnets

• Geochemistry- Earth's Crust, Plate Techtonics, Topography,

• World Geography-Continents, Oceans, Countries and their capitals

• USA Geography- States and Capitals

• Paleontology-Fossils, and Dinosaurs

• Petroleum geology- Fossil Fuels

• Meterology-temperature, air pressure, water vapor, Solar Cycle, Lunar Cycle, Water Cycle, Erosion, and Weathering

• Biosphere-Troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, magnetosphere, ionosphere, exosphere, Lithosphere

• Mineralogy- Types of Rocks, Minerals, metals, Limestone, and soil

• Organic and Inorganic Materials

• Geomorphology -Landforms, Coasts, Rivers, Oceans, deserts, Mountains, caves, rainforests, Pangea, Planes, Plateaus, volcanoes, Geysers, and Islands

• Ecosystem

• Glaciation-Ice Age

• Types of Natural Disasters-Tsunami, Tornadoes, Earthquakes, Tidal Waves, avalanche, forest fires, Floods, Cyclone, Landslide

• Population-Migration, Settlement, Tourism, Urbanization

• Environmental Problems-greenhouse gasses, air pollutants, global warming, ozone holes, acid rain

• Employment Structures-Industry, Economic geology

• Petrology- Igneous, Metamorphic, and sedintery rock, surveys the distribution, chemical composition, and mineral associations in rocks of the earth's crust and upper mantle, and establishes its relation to tectonic environment

• Mining and Engineering geologydesign mines for the safe and efficient removal of minerals such as coal and metals for manufacturing and utilities

• Environmental geology-managing geological and hydrogeological resources such as fossil fuels, minerals, water (surface and ground water), and land use. studying the earth's surface through the disciplines of geomorphology, and edaphology; defining and mitigating exposure of natural hazards on humans.

• Geological modelling-applied science of creating computerized representations of portions of the Earth's crust based on geophysical andgeological observations made on and below the Earth surface.

• Geophysics-ravity, magnetic, electrical, and seismic methods. 

• Historical geology

• Hydrogeology- distribution and movement of groundwater in the soil and rocks of the Earth's crust (commonly in aquifers).

• Sedimentologystudy of modern sediments such as sand, silt, and clay, and the processes that result in their formation (erosion and weathering), transport, deposition and diagenesis.

• Stratigraphy-studies rock layers (strata) and layering (stratification). It is primarily used in the study of sedimentary and layered volcanic rocks. Stratigraphy includes two related subfields: lithologic stratigraphy or lithostratigraphy, and biologic stratigraphy or biostratigraphy.

• Structural geology- study of the three-dimensional distribution of rock units with respect to their deformational histories.

• Volcanology-(also spelled vulcanology) is the study of volcanoes, lava, magma, and related geological, geophysical and geochemical phenomena

• Natrual Resources-discipline in the management of natural resourcessuch as land, water, soil, plants and animals, with a particular focus on how management affects the quality of life for both present and future generations.
