Detailed explanation-3: -Physical geographers study how atmospheric, ecological, and landform systems vary over the Earth’s surface, how they change through time, and how they interact with each other to form the complex environments found on Earth.

Detailed explanation-4: -Five main sub-fields of geography Biogeography ( study of plant and animal life and processes) Climatology (study of long term weather called climate and its effects on life) Geomorphology (earth’s form and structure) Hydrology (study of all forms of water underground, over-ground and in the cloud)
