    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.

    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?
