physical-geography
From the author
Earth systems science covering plate tectonics, landforms, erosion, biomes, hydrosphere, atmospheric circulation, and the interactions among lithosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, and biosphere. Provides frameworks for analyzing how physical processes shape landscapes over geological and human timescales. Use when reasoning about landforms, natural hazards, climate patterns, ocean currents, biogeography, or any question about how Earth's physical systems operate and interact.

- earth-life-systemsTibsfox/gsd-skill-creatorEarth and life systems as contexts for scientific inquiry. Covers ecosystems, biodiversity, biogeochemical cycles, climate systems, geological processes, and human impacts -- not as content to memorize but as case studies for applying the scientific method, experimental design, data analysis, and field observation. Use when applying scientific inquiry skills to ecological, environmental, or biological questions.Data★ 71
- human-geographyTibsfox/gsd-skill-creatorStudy of human activities, spatial patterns, and social processes on Earth's surface. Covers population and migration, cultural diffusion and landscapes, urbanization and city systems, economic geography and development, political geography and borders, and social/identity geographies. Use when reasoning about why people live where they do, how cultures spread, how cities grow, how economies are spatially organized, or how power operates through space.Other★ 71
- environmental-analysisAlpacaLabsLLC/skills-for-architectsResearch climate, sun, flood, seismic, soil, contamination, and topography for a site. Use for environmental site analysis or hazard questions tied to a location.Science★ 390
- climate-scienceTibsfox/gsd-skill-creatorClimate physics, forcing, feedback, and attribution. Covers the greenhouse effect and radiative forcing, climate sensitivity, fast and slow feedbacks, the paleoclimate record, detection and attribution science, regional climate impacts, and the distinction between weather, climate variability, and forced climate change. Use when reasoning about global warming mechanisms, interpreting temperature or CO2 records, evaluating attribution claims for extreme events, or distinguishing signal from natural variability.Science★ 71
- ecosystem-dynamicsTibsfox/gsd-skill-creatorEcological organization, energy flow, food webs, biodiversity, succession, and species interactions. Covers trophic structure, primary productivity, nutrient transfer efficiency, keystone and foundation species, ecosystem services, carrying capacity, disturbance regimes, primary and secondary succession, and resilience metrics. Use when analyzing how living communities are organized, how energy and matter move through ecosystems, how disturbance and recovery shape landscapes, or why biodiversity matters for ecosystem function.Planning★ 71
- fieldwork-methodsTibsfox/gsd-skill-creatorField observation, data collection, and research methods for geographic inquiry. Covers site selection and sampling strategies, field observation techniques (landscape reading, transects, quadrats), survey and interview methods for human geography, GPS and field mapping, environmental monitoring and instrumentation, data recording and field notebooks, ethical considerations in fieldwork, and the integration of field data with GIS analysis. Use when planning geographic field research, designing data collection protocols, evaluating field evidence, or connecting field observations to broader geographic analysis.Science★ 71
