NSC1531 ST: Intro to Physical Geography

Physical geography examines several elements of the Earth’s physical environment, including weather, climate, the atmosphere, solar energy and the seasons, landforms, and even the biosphere as it relates to the physical world. In addition, this course connects these topics to human activities to demonstrate the complex relationship of the human and natural worlds. A separate lab component will allow students to explore these concepts in a more in-depth and empirical manner. This course will be useful for students who wish to understand better the geographical aspects of environmental issues. Assessments will include lab reports, a presentation, quizzes, tests, and in-class comprehension activities. Credits: 4.000
