Geophysics as a science

Beno Gutenberg • Geophysics (1937)

Abstract "Geophysics" means "Physics of the Earth." While in physics one tries to eliminate the effects of the gravitational, electric, and magnetic fields of the earth, in geophysics these fields, their properties and effects, and the stru...
