The Scope of Earth Science Section 1.1 The Scope of Earth Science Earth Science Earth science can be broken into five major areas of specialization:

Major Areas Geology the study of materials that make up Earth, the processes that form and change these materials, and the history of the planet and its life-forms Meteorology the study of the forces and processes that cause the atmosphere to change and produce weather

Major Areas Astronomy the study of objects beyond Earth’s atmosphere Oceanography the study of Earth’s oceans Environmental Science the study of the interactions of organisms and their surroundings

Scientists who study Earth have identified four main Earth systems:

Systems of Earth Hydrosphere all the water on Earth, including the water in the atmosphere Geosphere the area from the surface of Earth down to its center

Systems of Earth Atmosphere the blanket of gases that surrounds our planet Biosphere all organisms on Earth as well as the environments in which they live

Section 1.1 Earth’s Systems Earth Science All of Earth’s systems are interdependent. Notice how water from the hydrosphere enters the atmosphere, falls to the biosphere, and soaks into the geosphere.
