2. Physiograhy (Looking for PROCESS) -- Topography is usually the first tool Geographers use in hypothesizing about a process leading to a human spatial pattern
• Arid – Humid Divide
• North – South Divide
• Basins vs. Mountains
• Rivers
Physiography: The subfield of geography that studies physical patterns and processes of the Earth. It aims to understand the forces that produce and change rocks, oceans, weather, and global flora and fauna patterns http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/physiography

Close-up: Winter Image of Kelan, Shanxi, China This four-meter resolution
satellite image was collected by Space Imaging's IKONOS satellite on Jan. 26, 2002. The image shows the highlands of Kelan, located in the northwest corner of Shanxi Province in China. The highlands, shown here with patches of snow, are more than 2,000 meters above sea level. China could use remote sensing technologies to manage and protect its environment from soil erosion, deforestation, water shortages and droughts, many due to increased economic development.

China Geography & Envr 40
Key Concepts Revealed1. Population Patterns reveal the human process
of meeting basic needs, especially food2. Some sites have greater resources and thus
higher carrying capacity3. Rivers form networks linking resource rich areas
and provide most basic resource H2O4. Good land pulls population, people are pushed
out of crowded spaces, natural barriers channel flows
5. North China plain is the cradle of Chinese civilization it diffused from this area
6. Modern economies favor locations on international networks (situation).

China Geography & Envr 41
Key Concepts Revealed
6. Local resources, like good farm land are a SITE characteristic, historically attracted population
7. Rivers that offer natural transportation links are a SITUATION characteristic (Yangtze River)
8. Patterns can be read off maps and then Geographers can speculate on Processes causing them
9. Mountains are barriers to spread, valleys, basins, and lowlands encourage movement and migration (as long as not desert)
10. North China was an important hearth area for the diffusion of Chinese civilization
