Earth science (also known as geoscience, the geosciences or the Earth Sciences) , is an all-embracing term for the sciences related to the planet Earth.Wordnet Search: Earth science It is arguably a special case in planetary science, the Earth being the only known life-bearing planet. There are both reductionist and holistic approaches to Earth science. There are four major disciplines in earth sciences, namely geography, geology, geophysics and geodesy. These major disciplines use physics, chemistry, biology, chronology and mathematics to build a quantitative understanding of the principal areas or spheres of the Earth system.
