geo-, ge- +

Referring to divination by the analysis of figures or lines drawn in dirt (or on paper).

Someone who foretells the future by using a system of divination by scattering pebbles, dust, sand grains, or seed on the ground and interpreting their shapes and positions.

The branch of medicine concerned with the influence of environment, climatic, and topographic conditions on health and the prevalence of disease in different parts of the world.

1. Relating to geometry; using the principles or methods of geometry.
2. Referring to a design, using or resembling the simple linear figures or forms associated with geometry.

1. Pertaining to, or according to the rules or principles of, geometry.
2. Determined by geometry; as, a geometrical solution of a problem.

Geometrical is often used in a limited or strictly technical sense, as opposed to mechanical; therefore, a construction or solution is geometrical which can be made by ruler and compasses; that is, by means of right lines and circles.

1. In a geometric fashion.
2. With respect to geometry.
3. According to the rules or laws of geometry.

The ratio of a solar collector aperture area to the absorber area.

A mathematician specializing in, or skilled in, geometry.

1. The branch of mathematics that deals with points, lines, surfaces, and solids, and examines their properties.
2. A branch of mathematics that is concerned with the properties and relationships of points, lines, angles, curves, surfaces, and solids.
3. In nuclear medicine, any of the various arrangements between a radioactive source and a detector that affects the accuracy of counting or measurement.

1. Three-dimensional geometric surface or surfaces.
2. Earth shape or earth form.

1. Of or resembling the earth or its shape or surface configuration.
2. Pertaining to the form of the earth or the forms of its surface.

The physical and chemical interactions between the earth's surface and the natural forces acting upon it to produce landforms.

The processes are determined by such natural environmental variables as geology, climate, vegetation and baselevel, to say nothing of human interference. The nature of the process and the rate at which it operates will be influenced by a change in any of these variables.

The study of the origins of land formations.

Characterized by the study of the surface configurations of the earth; especially, the nature and evolution of present landforms, their relationships to underlying structures, and the history of geologic activity as represented by such surface features.

Someone who studies the surface configurations of the earth and the history of geologic activities as represented by such surface features.
