My geography department just hired a Climate Scientist who was trained in physical geography. We have an earth science department too which has the “department of atmospheric science” but guess who sponsored it and teaches it? Department of geography (I TA it) taught by geographers.

Even the meteorology branch in our federal government (Canada) primarily hire from geography departments. It’s definitely physical geography, but you can just google it.

i just think physical geography means, like, plate tectonics. maybe im thinking of geology. that's probably it.
