Terrestrial Magnetism provides a detailed review of all aspects of the main magnetic field of the Earth produced within its core. Topics include the knowledge of geomagnetism coming from paleomagnetic and archeomagnetic data, centuries of terrestrial observations, and more.

The articles in this volume provide a detailed review of all aspects of the main magnetic field of the Earth produced within the Earth's core: its past history, its long and short term changes, the way it is generated. The book contains the combined knowledge of geomagnetism coming from paleomagnetic and archeomagnetic data, centuries of terrestrial observations and from the past few decades of intensive space observations. There is considerable emphasis on the phenomenology and the physical processes of the evolution of the geomagnetic field on different timescales. The book reports fully...
