Geosciences | Introduction

The term Earth Sciences (or geosciences) includes all fields of natural science related to the planet Earth. The full coverage of sub-topics is deep and varied.

Those that have a strong geographic alignment and general interest are Atmosphere, Geodesy, Geology & Oceanography. These items are the basic components of our planetary system (land, sea and air) and others in varied ways. All the components interact with each other in some way which drive the processes we witness avery day. We will examine the four areas below. Geodata of course enables the reintegration of the separate topics and data streams.
