Further explanation

As we know, Geosphere is layers of material objects which become the field study of Earth science. It consists of many layers, such as the layer of air, water, soil, rocks, animals, plants, and humans. Because the study is so complex, Earth science requires a variety of other supporting sciences to be able to explain every Geosphere phenomenon in detail.

→ Some examples of study that support the Earth science are:

Geology is the study of the earth, its composition, structure, physical properties, history, and its formation process.  Geomorphology is the study of the shapes of the earth's surface and its formation process.  Meteorology is the study of weather which includes physical and chemical characteristics.  Climatology is the study of climate, which includes causes, their effects on physical and life forms.  Biogeography is the study of animals and plants distribution on the surface of the earth.  Hydrology is the study of water phenomena on the earth which includes cycles, distributions, and its shapes.  Oceanography is the study of ocean phenomena which include the nature of seawater, seawater movements, and tides.  Demography is the study of the population includes the growth, composition, and population migration.  Pedology is the study of land, including the process of forming species and their distribution.  Astronomy is the study of celestial bodies (such as stars, planets, comets, etc.) and natural phenomena that occur outside the Earth's atmosphere.Learn moreGeographical feature in Latin America: linkThe characteristic of lithospheric plates: linkThe planet Venus: linkAnswer details
