地球科学部地理学科组所涉及的学科范围广、跨度大。它包括自然地理、人文地理、土壤、环境地学和遥感应用五部分。从学科跨度讲,它涉及自然科学与人文科学。学科性质方面,有的偏重于基础理论研究,有的则偏重于应用基础理论研究。各部分的学科数少则十几多则几十。从严格意义上讲,地理学科组是既相互联系、交叉又各自相对独立的学科群。 The disciplines covered by the Geosciences Division of the Department of Earth Sciences have a wide range and span. It includes five parts of natural geography, human geography, soil, environmental geology and remote sensing applications. Speaking from the cross-disciplinary, it involves the natural sciences and humanities. In terms of disciplines, some lay particular stress on basic theoretical research, while others lay emphasis on the application of basic theoretical research. The number of subjects in each part is less than a dozen but dozens. In a strict sense, geography is a subject group that is interrelated, interdependent and relatively independent.
