From this hands-on approach, students will: Gain a more complete understanding of the physical landscape Acquire experience in data collection from the field Formulate questions and think critically about their observations Recognize patterns in their physical environment Better understand the processes around them GPS (Global Positioning System) Applications 3 new topo maps with aerial photographs Physical Geography Laboratory Manual is designed for a one or two semester laboratory course in physical geography or environmental science. It will complement most introductory physical geography and environmental texts. The exercises are self-explanatory and include maps, aerial photographs, and worksheets.
