Study Notes

Ecology

Focuses on interactions among organisms and their environment.
Professionals in this field are known as ecologists, who study ecosystems and biodiversity.

Geology

Examines Earth's composition, rocks, landforms, and geological processes.
Experts in this discipline are called geologists, involved in understanding Earth's history and changes.

Meteorology

Concerns the study of weather patterns and climatic conditions.
Specialists in meteorology are termed meteorologists, often involved in forecasting and atmospheric research.

Astronomy

Studies celestial phenomena including stars, planets, and galaxies.
Experts in this domain are known as astronomers, who explore the universe beyond Earth.

Taxonomy

Involves the classification and categorization of living organisms.
Scientists focused on this area are called taxonomists, who organize biological diversity into systematic frameworks.
