INTRODUCTION TO PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY

It will consist of three sections A, B and C. You will be required to answer only four questions. Section A is compulsory and will have two compulsory questions, one on map work and another on photographic interpretation. You will also answer at least one question from section B and one from section C.

    • GEO1/6: MAP WORK Details 1 year
    • MAP WORK INVOLVES THREE MAIN ASPECTS ie Map Reading: This involves the recognition of natural and man-made features and their spatial relationships on the map. Map interpretation: This is concerned not only with the recognition but also with the assessment of their significance. Map analysis: This includes all aspects of reading and interpretation but proceeds to evaluate the interrelationships of features represented by the map in preparation for their classification and assessment.

  • GEO1/6: DELTAS AND RIVER CAPTURE Details 1 year
  • This is the process which part of the river course diverts into another system of a river that is adjacent to it. This river has high erosive pore and its ability to erode its valley more rapidly on its neighboring river. Rivers captures another is called a pirate river or a capturing stream and the captured stream is known as the beheaded stream.

  • GEO1/6: SOIL Details 1 year
  • Soil is a material composed of five ingredients — minerals, soil organic matter, living organisms, gas, and water. Soil minerals are divided into three size classes — clay, silt, and sand; the percentages of particles in these size classes is called soil texture.

    • GEO1/6: COASTAL GEOMOPHOLOGY Details 1 year
    • Coastal geomorphology is a branch of geomorphology in which the focus is on the area influenced by large bodies of water, including seas and oceans, and large lakes. Coastal landforms, any of the relief features present along any coast, the result of a combination of processes, sediments, and the geology of the coast itself. A coast is a strip of land that meets an ocean or sea. ... Coasts have many different features, such as caves and cliffs, beaches and mudflats. Tides, waves, and water currents (flow) shape the land to form these coastal features.

    • GEO1/6: SEA LEVEL CHANGES Details 1 year
    • Sea level changes refer to relative movements in the level of water in the sea, Ocean, lakes relative to the adjacent land. When the sea level changes on a worldwide, it's known as eustatism or an eustatic change. Water in the sea is never constant.
