Investigations of the Geodynamo

PI提议研究产生地球磁场的发电机过程。这项工作的重点是对发电机过程进行数值研究，使用PI最近开发和测试的动态一致的三维发电机程序。由于先进的计算机技术的发展，地球磁场产生的基本问题直到最近才成为建模工作的一部分。地球发电机模型也很有趣。在固体地球物理学中，因为对岩石动力学的理解对于揭示深层内部的复杂过程至关重要。

Bloxham 9526914 The PI proposes to study the dynamo process responsible for the generation of the Earth's magnetic field. The focus of the work is on a numerical investigation of the work is on a numerical investigation of the dynamo process using a dynamically-consistent, three-dimensional dynamo program that the PI has recently developed and tested. The fundamental question of the Earth's magnetic field is generated has only recently become accessible to modeling efforts as a consequence of development of advanced computer technologies. Geodynamo models are also of great interest. In solid earth geophysics because an understanding of care dynamics is essential to unraveling the complex process in the deep interior.
