Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book examines variations in the intensity of Earth's magnetic field over time. In the 1790s, scientists realized that the strength of Earth's magnetic field varied by location. Building on this, the author synthesizes data from dozens of scientists across more than four decades of study to produce the first detailed global map of the magnetic field. The author analyzes these variations in the context of theories about the source of the magnetic field and the dynamics of its behavior. These insights continue to inform scientists' understanding of Earth's magnetic field.
