Wikipedia article: Geography
Geography (100)
· The first person to use the word "geography" was Eratosthenes (276-194 BC).
· Four historical traditions in geographical research are the spatial analysis of natural and human phenomena (geography as a study of distribution), area studies (places and regions), study of man-land relationship, and research in earth sciences.
· Nonetheless, modern geography is an all-encompassing discipline that foremost seeks to understand the Earth and all of its human and natural complexities—not merely where objects are, but how they have changed and come to be.
· Geography has been called "the world discipline" and "the bridge between the human and the physical science".

· Geography has been called "the world discipline" and "the bridge between the human and the physical science".
· As space and place affect a variety of topics such as economics, health, climate, plants and animals; geography is highly interdisciplinary.
· Geography as a discipline can be split broadly into two main subsidiary fields: human geography and physical geography.
· Although other subdisciplines of geography rely on maps for presenting their analyses, the actual making of maps is abstract enough to be regarded separately.
· 545 BC), considered by later Greek writers to be the true founder of geography, come to us through fragments quoted by his successors.

· They must learn geodesy and fairly advanced mathematics to understand how the shape of the Earth affects the distortion of map symbols projected onto a flat surface for viewing.
· One of the first estimates of the radius of the Earth was made by Eratosthenes.
· To measure the longitude at different location on Earth, he suggested using eclipses to determine the relative difference in time.
science (55)

geographers (52)
· Traditionally, geographers have been viewed the same way as cartographers and people who study place names and numbers.
· Geographers study the spatial and temporal distribution of phenomena, processes and features as well as the interaction of humans and their environment.

· Geography as a discipline can be split broadly into two main subsidiary fields: human geography and physical geography.
