My name is Matthew Ammon and this blog is created for Physical Geography 1202.

The location I have chosen for my blog is the outback country of Australia. The reason I chose Australia is due to the diverse physical geography that it offers. Australia is divided into seven different territories, each with distinct differences in its physical characteristics. From the Australian Alps in the southeast to desert climates in the west and everything in between, Australia has much to offer in geographical research. Although I have never been to Australia, I believe that it is a geographical location that is viewed in a very biased perspective. I am interested in learning the diverse physical geography that Australia truly has to offer and depicting it through this blog.
