Course content
The subject of the study of the discipline is general scientific and concrete scientific methods used in the spatio-temporal analysis of the earth's surface. The latter include separate methodological directions for the study of spatio-temporal features of the earth's surface: morphological (methods for studying the appearance), morpholithogenetic (methods for studying the material composition of the earth's surface) , morphochronological (methods of studying the age of the earth's surface), morphodynamic (methods of studying modern processes occurring on the earth's surface) analyses. The specifics of obtaining information by carrying out natural (field) geographical research and by using methods of remote sensing of the Earth are also considered.
