Physical geography is the study of processes and patterns in the natural environment, including the atmosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, and geosphere.
The four historical traditions of geographic research are the spatial analysis of natural and human phenomena, the regional study of places and regions, the study of human-land relations, and the earth sciences.
