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
organisation 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.
