This document provides an overview of natural environment topics including weather, global climate change, natural hazards, and natural resources. It discusses the five main climate types: tropical/equatorial, dry/arid, moderate/temperate, cold/continental, and polar/extreme. Examples are given for each climate type. Natural hazards like tsunamis and earthquakes are also mentioned. The document then covers human geographies including language, religion, political systems, and economic sectors. In summary, it is an introductory geography document that outlines key concepts relating to the natural environment and human geography.

4. z
WEATHER
 Short term description of the air in area measured by

5. z
GLOBAL CLIMATE CHANGE
 The weather conditions in an area over a long period of time.
 Type of climate

- Type B: Dry or arid climates
- Type C: Moderate or temperate climates
- Type D: Cold or continental climates

6. z
TROPICAL OR EQUATORIAL CLIMATE
 Usuallly found in tropics region : Southeast Asia region Ex :
Malaysia,Thailand,Vietnam,Indonesia,Singapore
 Warm temperatures all year around
 Some type A climates produce a dry season and a wet season
(monsoon), while others receive consistent rainfall throughout
the year.

8. z
DRY or ARID CLIMATE
 Exemplified by the earth’s desert regions. Ex : Central Arizona ,
The Hawaiian Island
 Temperatures can be extreme.
 Experience low rainfall and high temperatures during summer on
the day and cooler temperatures at night or during the winter
season

10. z
MODERATE and TEMPERATE
CLIMATE
 Climate that good for agriculture
 Moderate in temperature and precipitation
 Favourable for human habitation
 Have seasonal change
 Winters are too cool meanwhile summer are usually warm

12. z
COLD or CONTINENTAL CLIMATE
 Colder winter
 Seasonal variations exists
 With cool to hot summer and colder winter
 Precipitation usually in form of rain during summer and snow
during winter
 Ex : Great Lake region in United States , Canada and Russia

14. z
POLAR or EXTREME CLIMATE
 Found in polar region near or to the north of the Arctic Circle and
near or to the south of the Antartic Circle
 Cold with permanent ice or permafrost year around
 Vegetation is minimal, there are no trees.
 Temperature may warm slightly during he short summer months

16. z
NATURAL HAZARD
Natural phenomenon that happen naturally that
will bring negative effect to human and
environment.

17. z
NATURAL HAZARD
EXAMPLE :
 Tsunami
 Volcanic Erruption
 Earthquake

18. z
NATURAL RESOURCES
Resources that human can extract and
collect from nature.

19. z
NATURAL RESOURCES
 People do not make natural resources, but gather them from the Earth
 Two type of resources : Renewable & Non-renewable
 Example :
- Air
- Water
- Wood
- Oil
- Wind Energy
- Iron
- Coal

20. z
HUMAN GEOGRAPHIES
 The study of people and their communities, cultures ,economics
and interactions with environment
 Ex: Language, Religion

21. z
