Abstract

There are several sub-disciplines within the discipline of human geography. As the second most important area of geography, human geography is concerned with the study of human beings and their many social and cultural groupings, cultures, economies, and relationships with their surroundings from a spatiotemporal viewpoint. People who study human geography define and explain the human patterns of social interaction and interdependencies, as well as their effects on the Earth's environment. The study of the geographical and temporal variations in the interrelationships between people, place, and environment is known as human geography. Human geographers study how people's daily activities and interactions with the physical environment are shaped by the spatial structure and processes that take place in their daily lives.
