Geology and Pedology (soil study) - the physical matter and energy that constitute the Earth.

Civil engineering or soil studies may have their own, different, conventions as their materials are often not competent enough to make permanent marks on.

The area was used by Dr. Hugh Bennett for soil studies in the 1930s.

Biochemical dynamics would also be related to the fields of geology and pedology (soil study).

Physical geography covers aspects of geomorphology, soil study, hydrology, meteorology, climatology and biogeography.

Palynology can be applied to problems in many fields including geology, botany, paleontology, archaeology, pedology (soil study), and physical geography.

As students become more advanced in their data-gathering skills, they add hydrology, land cover and soil studies.

Dr. Kingston's research team reported this interpretation of the soil studies in the current issue of the journal Science.

Conventional wisdom held that quality red grapes couldn't grow in Tulbagh's climate, but Dorrington's later soil studies seemed to validate his hunch.
