Physical geography emphasizes surface features of the Earth. (its structure and formations) The atmosphere and the internal parts of the earth are not the main focus of this field.
Earth science is more general , it includes physical geography in its study. And also it includes the study on interior and exterior portions of the Earth. (including its atmosphere)

Physical geography is about the physical aspects of the earths surface- mountains, plains, rivers etc. Earth science is more about the earths inside...rocks, core, etc.

Geography is the really earth what makes it up, what that's composed of, its layers, houses of the earth itself, something immediately is the earth. Earth sciences are sciences that would want to do with the failings in the international no the really earth itself, like the wooded area, ecosystems, biomes, nutrition chain, overfishing, international warming, ice/glaciers, and something having to do with what's in the international.

When I took physical Geography, most of the semester was taken up by the climate, and how/why the various climates types are associated with the various areas or zones.
Later we discussed how the surface features got to be where they are, and how they affect the adjoining areas.
