    They can ask to compare the two I think, pretty sure it's only ever come up with primary though?

    GDA = Core, BMW = Peripheral.

    If they try to be specific they'll ask you for core/peripheral.

    Is there realistically a point in me learning soils. I'm fine with biomes but scared they're gonna ask only soils.

    Because the harsh reality of geography is too much to handle.

    Fluvial is rivers, Coastal is sea, mass movement is soil creep and sh*t.

    Core = wealthy, tertiary activities well developed, good facilities, area of in migration.

    Peripheral = poor, farming based economy, poor transport, isolated, area of out migration.

    Does anybody know How I can group soil processes together to make them one. For example, how could I combine salinisation and calcification to put them under one process?

    I know the majority of the physical side, just trying to learn off geothermal energy and the Mississippi River now. Geo-ecology should be okay. For regional I know primary, secondary and tertiary for a euro region and Dublin, secondary and tertiary for sub continental.

    Really not sure what else to look at at this stage. Any ideas?
