This volume opens up new perspectives on the physics of the Earth’s interior and planetary bodies for graduate students and researchers working in the fields of geophysics, planetary sciences and geodesy. It looks at our planet in an integrated fashion, linking the physics of its interior to geophysical and geodetic techniques that record, over a broad spectrum of spatial wavelengths and time scales, the ongoing modifications in the shape and gravity field of the planet. Basic issues related to the rheological properties of the Earth and to its slow deformation are considered, in both mathematical and physical terms, within the ... Read more

About Sabadini, Roberto, Vermeersen, Bert, Cambiotti, Gabriele
Prof. Roberto Sabadini is Full Professor of Solid Earth Geophysics at the Department of Earth Sciences, University of Milano, Italy. His focus is on the role of Earth’s viscoelasticity, particularly within the frame of an analytical approach, applied to a variety of geophysical phenomena, from postglacial rebound to those related to mantle density anomalies, from secular polar motion to post-seismic ...
