The word of the day at the OED is orography "the study of mountains". Nice coincidence (if it is one).
orography, n. : Oxford English Dictionary
The OED is the definitive record of the English language, featuring 600,000 words, 3 million quotations, and over 1,000 years of English.

I still update it as new specimens are found, so feel free to check it out.
