Answer: (4)
Geography seeks to
understand the physical and human organization of the surface of the Earth. In
the field of geography, inter-related themes are frequently seen. These are
scale, pattern and process. Scale is defined as the level of structure on
organization at which a phenomenon is studied. Pattern is defined as the
variation observed in a phenomenon studied at a particular scale. The third
theme, process, further connects the first two. Process is defined as the
description of how the factors that aect a phenomenon act to product a pattern
at a particular scale. For instance, when a passenger on an aircraft looks out
of the window, the View changes according to the scale. At the global scale
when the aircraft maintains its height, he can see the chunks of clouds in all
their pattern, the sun or
the moon, as per the time. When the aircraft loses a little height, passengers
can see the land and water masses in their dierent colours and the shape of
land masses. At the continental scale, the passengers can see the shapes of the
land features and how they are distributed. The pattern emerges as the
variation of land and water and the proportion of each. Looking carefully,
passengers can note how each land mass aligns with the others and how each
mountain bears the signs of the process through which it emerged.
The
processes in a geography change in a regular and repetitive manner. One
instance of this is the annual solar cycle of the sun and the earth. Most
systems in nature display time cycles that are organised in a rhythm of their
own as these time cycles and natural processes are always active, the
environment of the earth is always in a state of dynamism. This environmental
change is not only the result of natural process but also the result of human
activity. Physical geography works towards understanding the interaction
between man and nature and also the results of this interaction in order to
manage global climate change better.
