GE 10 : ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE (INTRODUCTION – PART 1) By: RYAN LESTER MIRO VILLAHERMOSA Geologist, Instructor Physics and Geology Department NORSU  INTRODUCTION TO ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE What is Environmental Science? Science, Matter and Energy. 2 GE 10:Envi Sci RYAN LESTER ALEXXANNEDER MIRO VILLAHERMOSA What is Environmental Science? Environmental science is an interdisciplinary academic field that draws on ecology, geology, meteorology, biology, chemistry, engineering, and physics to study environmental problems and human impacts on the environment.  ECOLOGY is the study of the relationships between living organisms, including humans, and their physical environment; it seeks to understand the vital connections between plants and animals and the world around them. 5 GE 10:Envi Sci RYAN LESTER ALEXXANNEDER MIRO VILLAHERMOSA  GEOLOGY is the study of the Earth, the materials of which it is made, the structure of those materials, and the processes acting upon them. It includes the study of organisms that have inhabited our planet. 6 GE 10:Envi Sci RYAN LESTER ALEXXANNEDER MIRO VILLAHERMOSA  METEOROLOGY is the study of the Earth's atmosphere and the variations in temperature and moisture patterns that produce different weather conditions. Some of the major subjects of study are such phenomena as precipitation (rain and snow), thunderstorms, tornadoes, and hurricanes and typhoons. 7 GE 10:Envi Sci RYAN LESTER ALEXXANNEDER MIRO VILLAHERMOSA  BIOLOGY study of living things and their vital processes. 8 GE 10:Envi Sci RYAN LESTER ALEXXANNEDER MIRO VILLAHERMOSA  CHEMISTRY is a branch of science that involves the study of the composition, structure and properties of matter. 9 GE 10:Envi Sci RYAN LESTER ALEXXANNEDER MIRO VILLAHERMOSA  PHYSICS is the science of matter and its motion—the science that deals with concepts such as force, energy, mass, and charge. As an experimental science, its goal is to understand the natural world. 10 GE 10:Envi Sci RYAN LESTER ALEXXANNEDER MIRO VILLAHERMOSA  ENGINEERING is the application of science and math to solve problems. Engineers figure out how things work and find practical uses for scientific discoveries. 11 GE 10:Envi Sci RYAN LESTER ALEXXANNEDER MIRO VILLAHERMOSA SCIENCE, MATTER and ENERGY  SCIENCE SCIENTIFIC METHOD the intellectual and practical activity encompassing the systematic study of the structure and behavior of the physical and natural world through observation and experiment. CURIOSITY BECOMES THE IN ORDER TO FIND ROOT FOR ANSWERS QUESTIONS… 13 GE 10:Envi Sci RYAN LESTER ALEXXANNEDER MIRO VILLAHERMOSA  MATTER In classical physics and general chemistry, matter is any substance that has mass and takes up space by having volume. 14 GE 10:Envi Sci RYAN LESTER ALEXXANNEDER MIRO VILLAHERMOSA  ENERGY (SOME)TYPES OF ENERGY in physics, the capacity for doing work. It may exist in potential, KINETIC 2 BASIC TYPES kinetic, thermal, electrical, POTENTIAL chemical, nuclear, or other various forms.
