文摘内容 Understanding the Changing Planet: Strategic Directions for the Geographical Sciences(UCP),published by the National Research Council(USA),and its comments in The Professional Geographer propose that uppercase and plural Geographical Sciences(GS) is the strategic direction for geography in the next decade for better understanding of our rapidly changing planet. According to these comments,UCP valued technologies and tools excessively(task),and did not pay much attention to methodology(discipline). Actually,bothtask and discipline are geographical wings,especially in the time of big science.Enlightenment from UCP and its comments is the strategic direction that should be balanced between task and discipline,GS should be a three-dimensional construct of a disciplinary system,methodology,and technologies and tools,and this system should be scientific humanism based on scientific spirit and directed by humanism. During the last 60 years,Chinese geographers devoted themselves to GS,including practice and theory. Obviously progress and outlook are proposed as interdisciplinary GS,Earth Surface Sciences(ESS) and Geographical Construction(GC). The disciplinary system of GS is very complex,and is composed of such human knowledge domains as sciences,technologies,engineering,and philosophy. The main mission is to research the open,complex,and macro earth system(not only scientifically,but also humanistically),and one significant methodology is comprehensive integration of qualitative and quantitative means(CIQQM). At the same time,another changing direction in Chinese geography is Human-Economic Geography(HEG).
