Opis

A state-of-the-art review of research in geomagnetism, aeronomy and space weather. Written by eminent researchers, it summarises the current state of knowledge on Earth's magnetic field, and discusses current and emerging studies and their applications. It is a valuable reference for researchers and students in geomagnetism and aeronomy.

Recenzje

'This impressive book, published in conjunction with the 100th anniversary of the International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics (IUGG), was commissioned by the International Association of Geomagnetism and Aeronomy, one of eight constituent bodies within IUGG. The goal of the project was to provide a thorough review of current knowledge and research in the fields, considering their contribution to our understanding of the earth and inter­planetary space and the effects magnetic field variations have on our technological society. It will undoubtedly be an essential reference for researchers and advanced students in these fields for many years.' William Green, The Leading Edge
