THERE ARE TWO CATEGORIES OF GEOGRAPHY
Physical Human
PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY
Climatology Hydrology
Biogeography Geomorphology
Meteorology Pedology
HUMAN GEOGRAPHY
Social Geography Cultural Geography
Economic Geography Behavioral Geography
Political Geography Urban Geography
COMBINED CONCEPTS
Human Geography
Physical Geography
The two concepts influence each other through social and physical realms of geography.
CLIMATOLOGY, METEOROLOGY
Both are sub-categories of physical geography that study weather.
BIOGEOGRAPHY
Studies the geographical impact of animals and plants.
GEOMORPHOLOGY
The study of landform construction of the earth.
HYDROLOGY
Study of water
PEDOLOGY
Study of soil, water, and climate Works with geomorphology,
climatology, meteorology, and hydrology
Physical geography studies the physical effects the earth has on itself and its
surrounding natural influences, however, there is another force that
creates the geographical world we live, human geography.
SOCIAL GEOGRAPHY
Study of social influences on the construction of the earth.
CULTURAL GEOGRAPHY
Study of Cultural influences on geography
ECONOMIC GEOGRAPHY

BEHAVIORAL GEOGRAPHY
Ties with social and cultural geography in the study of human impacts on the geographical make up of the earth.
POLITICAL GEOGRAPHY

URBAN GEOGRAPHY
Study of growing urban areas and their social, economic, political, and cultural influences in the geographical make up such areas.
All of these areas of study impact the geographical make up our physical and
