+*EARTH SYSTEMS SCIENCE

Catalog description

Explores interactions among Earth’s systems (Atmosphere, Cryosphere, Hydrosphere, Lithosphere) that shape landscape features. Examines concepts like tectonic and rock cycles, weathering, hydrology, and glaciology. Considers climate variations and their impact on erosion, deposition, and resulting features. Emphasizes the identification, landscape formation processes, practical implications for daily life of features such as: meandering rivers, cirques, and haystacks. Uses the process of science in active learning activities to develop comprehension and insight.
