There are many. Although I am not a geographer, as far as I understand it, geography is the study and use of spatial distribution. So long as something is spacialy distributed, it can be studied in one way shape or form by geography. some of the more common fields of geography include: * Human Geography * Physical Geography * Cultural Geography * Meteorology * Climatology * biogeography * hydrology * geomorphology

I encourage others to add to this list, or to correct me where i am wrong.

mb There is also; * Behavioural Geography * Political Geography * Economic Geography * Social Geography * Urban Geography * Population Geography Human Geography must be taught with relevance as to why it connects all the Social Sciences together.
