Summary, etc | A textbook that approaches geophysics from an Earth System Science perspective<br/><br/>Geophysics helps us understand how our planet works by connecting complex real-world phenomena with fundamental physical laws. It provides the tools, both conceptual and quantitative, for understanding interactions between the different components of the Earth System: the solid earth, oceans, atmosphere, and biosphere.<br/><br/>Earth System Geophysics is a comprehensive textbook for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in the Earth sciences that uses Earth System Science as the framework for learning about geophysics.<br/><br/>About this volume:<br/><br/>Presents convection as the underlying paradigm that drives the Earth System<br/>Uses math and physics in an accessible way to understand processes on and within the Earth<br/>Frames natural processes and events in terms of cause and effect<br/>Builds gradually from basic to advanced concepts and equations<br/>Develops quantitative skills through applied examples<br/>Heavily referenced, allowing students to pursue topics in greater depth<br/>Relevant for students from across the physical sciences and engineering<br/>The American Geophysical Union promotes discovery in Earth and space science for the benefit of humanity. Its publications disseminate scientific knowledge and provide resources for researchers, students, and professionals.<br/><br/> |
