Geomagnetism, being the oldest Earth science, studies the Earth’s magnetic field in its broadest sense. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe magnetic record left in rocks is studied in Paleomagnetism. Both fields have applications, pure and applied: in navigation, in the search for minerals and hydrocarbons, in dating rock sequences, and in unraveling past geologic movements such as plate motions they have contributed to a better understanding of the Earth. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConsisting of more than 300 articles written by ca 200 leading experts, this authoritative reference encompasses the entire fields of Geomagnetism and Paleomagnetism in a single volume. It describes in fine detail at an assessable level the state of the current knowledge and provides an up-to-date synthesis of the most basic concepts. As such, it will be an indispensable working tool not only for geophysicists and geophysics students but also for geologists, physicists, atmospheric and environmental scientists, and engineers.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2007-06-25\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781402039928\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4020-4423-6\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 280cm x210cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 1054\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50091296587916,"sku":"9781402039928","price":539.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781402039928.jpg?v=1779508040","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781402039928","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
