History of atmospheric sciences – history of the umbrella study of the atmosphere, its processes, the effects other systems have on the atmosphere, and the effects of the atmosphere on these other systems. History of atmospheric chemistry History of biogeography – history of the study of the distribution of species (biology), organisms, and ecosystems in geographic space and through geological time. History of cartography – history of the study and practice of making maps or globes. History of climatology – history of the study of climate, scientifically defined as weather conditions averaged over a period of time History of coastal geography – history of the study of the dynamic interface between the ocean and the land, incorporating both the physical geography (i.e. coastal geomorphology, geology, and oceanography) and the human geography (sociology and history) of the coast. History of environmental science – history of an integrated, quantitative, and interdisciplinary approach to the study of environmental systems. History of ecology – history of the scientific study of the distribution and abundance of living organisms and how they are affected by interactions between the organisms and their environment. History of Freshwater biology – history of the scientific biological study of freshwater ecosystems and is a branch of limnology History of marine biology – history of the scientific study of organisms in the ocean or other marine or brackish bodies of water History of parasitology – The history of parasitology studies parasites, their hosts, and their relationships. History of population dynamics – history of population dynamics is the branch of life sciences that studies short-term and long-term changes in the size and age composition of populations and the biological and environmental processes influencing those changes. History of environmental chemistry – The history of environmental chemistry is the scientific study of the chemical and biochemical phenomena that occur in natural places. History of environmental soil science – The history of environmental soil science is the study of the interaction of humans with the pedosphere as well as critical aspects of the biosphere, the lithosphere, the hydrosphere, and the atmosphere. History of environmental geology – The history of environmental geology, like hydrogeology, is an applied science concerned with the practical application of the principles of geology in solving environmental problems. History of toxicology – history of the branch of biology, chemistry, and medicine concerned with the study of the adverse effects of chemicals on living organisms. History of geodesy – history of the scientific discipline that deals with the measurement and representation of the Earth, including its gravitational field, in a three-dimensional time-varying space History of geography – history of the science that studies the lands, features, inhabitants, and phenomena of Earth History of geoinformatics – the history of the science and the technology used to develop and use information science infrastructure to address the problems of geography, geosciences, and related branches of engineering. History of geology – history of studying Earth, with the general exclusion of present-day life, flow within the ocean, and the atmosphere. History of planetary geology – the history of the planetary science discipline concerned with the geology of the celestial bodies, such as the planets and their moons, asteroids, comets, and meteorites. History of geomorphology – history of the scientific study of landforms and the processes that shape them History of geostatistics – history of the branch of statistics focusing on spatial or spatiotemporal datasets History of geophysics – history of the physics of the Earth and its environment in space; also the study of the Earth using quantitative physical methods. History of glaciology – history of the study of glaciers, or more generally, ice, and natural phenomena that involve ice. History of hydrology – history of studying water movement, distribution, and quality on Earth and other planets, including the hydrologic cycle, water resources, and environmental watershed sustainability. History of hydrogeology – history of the area of geology that deals with the distribution and movement of groundwater in the soil and rocks of the Earth's crust (commonly in aquifers). History of mineralogy – history of the study of chemistry, crystal structure, and physical (including optical) properties of minerals. History of meteorology – history of the interdisciplinary scientific study of the atmosphere, which explains and forecasts weather events. History of oceanography – history of the branch of Earth science that studies the ocean History of paleoclimatology – history of the study of changes in climate taken on the scale of the entire history of Earth History of paleontology – history of the study of prehistoric life History of petrology – history of the geology branch that studies rocks' origin, composition, distribution, and structure. History of limnology – history of the study of inland waters History of seismology – history of the scientific study of earthquakes and the propagation of elastic waves through the Earth or other planet-like bodies History of soil science – history of the study of soil as a natural resource on the surface of the Earth, including soil formation, classification, and mapping; physical, chemical, biological, and fertility properties of soils; and these properties concerning the use and management of soils. History of topography – history of the study of surface shape and features of the Earth and other observable astronomical objects, including planets, moons, and asteroids. History of volcanology – history of studying volcanoes, lava, magma, and related geological, geophysical and geochemical phenomena.
