THE IMPACT OF GEOGRAPHICAL TECHNOLOGIES ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF CLIMATE SCIENCE (A STUDY IN GEOGRAPHICAL THOUGHT
Abstract
The research dealt with ((the impact of geographical technologies on the development of climate science (a study in geographical thought)), which is considered one of the important topics.The rapid developments in the fields of information and communication contributed to tremendous developments in various fields of life.It was natural for these advanced technologies to break into the fields of geography.To contribute to its development through the preparation of field studies in the developments that have been interested in modern geography.Technological scientific developments that the world witnesses today , making global societies in general in the Arab world in particular, facing great preparations to confront these modern technology developments in the science of geography All scientific knowledge,and perhaps the most advanced and available technologies and means: Reconstruction technology by radioactive emission (OSL), advanced and calibrated carbon-14 technology (14), x-ray technology (x-ray) and magnetic sensitivity (ms) technology, as well as remote sensing system technology (SR) as well as GIS technology and system technology or GPS global positioning).
Modern technologies and the development of the manufacture of aerial cameras, satellites, and computers opened a wide field for geographers to use them in the branches of natural geography, as well as in climatology, as the results that are now appearing clearly and with great accuracy on their outputs from aerial photographs and satellite visuals, and computers also helped to make a quantum leap. In scientific research methods for various sciences, including geography, as well as in data collection and storage methods
