What is Earth Science?
Jot down what you think Earth Science is.
Also, known as geoscience, Earth Science studies the physical systems of the earth

• Science can be classified according to three main categories.
Major Categories of Science
• Life science deals with living things.
• Earth science investigates Earth and space.
• Physical science deals with matter and energy.

Earth Science:is four sciences rolled into one!
• Geology• Meteorology• Oceanography• Astronomy
![Page 4: What is Earth Science? Jot down what you think Earth Science is. Also, known as geoscience, Earth Science studies the physical systems of the earth.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649eb05503460f94bb5c1d/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
The first is:
GEOLOGY which studies
the systems of the Earth's interior and surface
![Page 5: What is Earth Science? Jot down what you think Earth Science is. Also, known as geoscience, Earth Science studies the physical systems of the earth.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649eb05503460f94bb5c1d/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
The second is:
ASTRONOMY which studies the universe,
stars, planets, and moons
In our case how the Earth relates to it’s place in the celestial sphereand how that effectsThe Earth’s systems.

The third is:
METEOROLOGY which studies the Earth's atmosphere:
weather and storms

The fourth is:
OCEANOGRAPHY which studies the Earth's oceans.
![Page 8: What is Earth Science? Jot down what you think Earth Science is. Also, known as geoscience, Earth Science studies the physical systems of the earth.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649eb05503460f94bb5c1d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
But Coach Holmes are we not taking Earth and Environmental Science???
• Ah yes. We do have that environmental element to this class.
![Page 9: What is Earth Science? Jot down what you think Earth Science is. Also, known as geoscience, Earth Science studies the physical systems of the earth.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649eb05503460f94bb5c1d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Therefore what do you think environmental science adds to this
class?
• It is the study of the interactions between biological and physical systems. Specifically how humans impact these physical systems.
![Page 10: What is Earth Science? Jot down what you think Earth Science is. Also, known as geoscience, Earth Science studies the physical systems of the earth.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649eb05503460f94bb5c1d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Nope. Ecology is the study of the interactions between organisms and their environment. Ecologists might investigate the relationship between a population of
organisms and some physical characteristic of their environment,

Environmental Science
Is the study of the physical and biological factors along with their chemical interactions that affect an organism… Specifically the human population?

• Science is a method for studying the natural world.
• The search for knowledge
• It is a process that uses observation and investigation to gain knowledge about events in nature.
