    GEOG 300 Physical Geography: Exploring Earth's Environmental Systems Units: 3 Hours: 54 hours LEC Prerequisite: None. Advisory: Concurrent enrollment in GEOG 301 (Physical Geography Lab) is suggested. GEOG 301 meets the UC and CSU transfer requirement for a 1-unit science lab. Transferable: CSU; UC General Education: Local GE L5; Cal-GETC Area 5A C-ID: C-ID GEOG 110 This course investigates the interrelationships between Earth and humans, with an emphasis on natural systems (solar energy balance, weather and climate, water resources, landforms, natural hazards, vegetation, and soil). Relevant application of these elements to today's world is stressed to help students better understand Earth's physical environment as well as human-environment interaction. A field trip (whether in-person or virtual) may be required to relate class discussions to the real world.
