Briefly compare and contrast the two disciplines, geography and geology

Geography
1 answer:
jarptica [38.1K]3 years ago
7 0

The main difference between geography and geology is that geography is mostly dealing with the physical overall shapes of the land. Geology is a science that is interested in how the land got into the shape it did.

Geology is mostly about what the ground is made up of from a natural perspective. What kind of rocks it contains and how those rocks or layers of rocks got there.

Geography is mostly dealing with mapping the extent of landforms, how far rivers are, how long mountain ranges are, how long the coast line is. This is often from the perspective of people or culture.

What causes the trail distance of longshore drift to increase?
babunello [35]

Answer:

Longshore currents are affected by the velocity and angle of a wave. When a wave breaks at a more acute (steep) angle on a beach, encounters a steeper beach slope, or is very high, longshore currents increase in velocity. ... This process, known as “longshore drift,” can cause significant beach erosion.
