measurement and monitoring precision; (4) the curriculum of physical geography needs to be restructured so as to accommodate new research methods, problem solving skills, critical thinking, and commendable ethics; and (5) the need to balance between holism and specialism with regard to geomorphology,climatology and biogeography |
