, Purpose and Perspective of the Chapter
The purpose of this chapter is to explain the range and discipline of physical geography,
which is the study of all aspects of Earth in its role as the home of people. Geographers
take a holistic approach to problem solving, meaning that they are open to all factors
that might be involved in the solution, including human factors. Being concerned with
nearly all aspects of Earth, physical geographers are trained to view a natural
environment and consider how it functions in its entirety. Maps are essential
components of geography. Physical geographers use the scientific method to guide
their learning about the processes and features on Earth. Physical geographers study
Earth’s principle subsystems–the atmosphere, lithosphere, biosphere, and hydrosphere-
and many specialize in identifying and reducing environmental degradation and
pollution. Geographers often employ models to give them information about a
particular system.
