随着人们意识到地球有一个磁场,它的数学描述,发现岩石中的磁化强度和地磁场极性的周期性逆转,地磁学在地球物理学中成为一个有趣的研究领域。这主要是由于测量技术的进步和对地球空间磁场及其波动的更好理解。书中阐述了固体地球地磁学的几个重要方面。前六章涵盖了磁性,磁性矿物,生物磁学,仪器和地磁场的行为的基础知识,而本书的其余部分则致力于实际应用,精心挑选的例子和插图。写得很好,易于阅读,这本书生动地描述了现代技术的主题涵盖,充分支持图形解释复杂的数学概念。
With the awareness that the Earth has a magnetic field, its mathematical description, discovery of remanent magnetisation in rocks and discovery of the periodic reversals of the geomagnetic field polarity, geomagnetism within geophysics became an interesting field of study. This is primarily due to advances in measurement technology and improved understanding of the magnetic field and its fluctuations in the geospace. Several important aspects of solid Earth geomagnetism are elaborated in the book. The first six chapters cover the basics of magnetism, magnetic minerals, biomagnetics, instrumentation and the behavior of geomagnetic field, while the rest of the book is devoted to practical applications with carefully selected examples and illustrations. Well-written and easy to read, the book vividly describes modern techniques in the subject matter covered, adequately supported by graphical explanations for complex mathematical concepts.
