Geography Sites

ENJOY discovering these “earth-shaking” geography sites !

We’ve searched for geographical Websites that delve into both branches of study - physical and human. These sites provide a real alternative to your typical online earth science search results.

Physiogeography focuses on geography as an earth science. It aims to understand the physical lithosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, pedosphere, and the biosphere.

Physiogeography can be divided into several broad categories including:

Biogeography, Climatology & Paleoclimatology, Coastal Geography, Environmental Geography & Management, Geodesy, Geomorphology, Glaciology, Hydrology & Hydrography, Landscape Ecology, Oceanography, Pedology, Palaeogeography and Quaternary Science.

Human geography focuses on the study of patterns and processes that shape human interaction with various environments. It encompasses human, political, cultural, social, and economic aspects. While the major focus of human geography is not the physical landscape of the Earth, it is hardly possible to discuss human geography without referring to the physical landscape on which human activities are being played out. Environmental geography is emerging as a link between the two.

Human geography is often divided into broad categories that include: Cultural, Development, Economic, Health, Historical & Time, Political & Geopolitics, Demography, Religion, Social, Transportation, Tourism and Urban Geography.



“mere names of places...are not geography... know by heart a whole gazetteer full of them would not, in itself, constitute anyone a geographer. Geography has higher aims than this: it seeks to classify phenomena (alike of the natural and of the political world, in so far as it treats of the latter), to compare, to generalize, to ascend from effects to causes, and, in doing so, to trace out the great laws of nature and to mark their influences upon man. This is 'a description of the world'—that is Geography. In a word Geography is a Science—a thing not of mere names but of argument and reason, of cause and effect. ” — William Hughes, 1863
