Here's why:
* Physical geography focuses on the Earth's natural systems and processes. This includes:
* Geomorphology: The study of landforms and how they are shaped by processes like erosion, weathering, and tectonic activity.
* Climatology: The study of climate and its variations, including weather patterns, atmospheric circulation, and climate change.
* Hydrology: The study of water, its movement, and distribution on Earth, including rivers, oceans, and groundwater.
* Biogeography: The study of the distribution of plants and animals across the Earth.
By understanding these natural processes, geographers can analyze how they impact the Earth's surface, ecosystems, and human societies.
