the difference between discovery science and experimental science is. when we say "discovery science" is comes from the word itself "discovered" it is first discovered by a certain person. when we say "experimental" it comes from the word it self "experiment", people tried to make things that are new . :)

Discovery science aims to observe and describe natural phenomena without a specific hypothesis, while hypothesis-based science starts with a specific question or hypothesis to test through experiments. Discovery science often leads to the generation of new hypotheses, whereas hypothesis-based science aims to confirm or reject a specific hypothesis.
Discovery science is extensive observation through discoveries, analyze data and guess what's gonna happen.
Hypothesis-based science is educated guess. It's involved with writing hypothesis and drawing conclusion.
The null hypothesis is typically assumed to be true in statistical hypothesis testing. It represents the scenario where there is no significant difference or effect observed between groups or conditions being compared. Researchers seek evidence to reject the null hypothesis in favor of an alternative hypothesis that suggests a real difference or effect exists.
The difference is that environmental science is just one of the many branches, or sub-categories of science. Think of science as the tree and one of its major branches is Earth Sciences, and branching from that, environmental science.
inductive reasoning
No. A hypothesis is just a a potential explanation or relationship that must be tested and then either verified, dismissed, or modified.
If a hypothesis can't be tested then it's not "scientific".
