Hydromagnetic Waves in the Magnetosphere and the Ionosphere (eBook)
XXIV, 426 Seiten
Springer Netherland (Verlag)
978-1-4020-6637-5 (ISBN)
Here is a fascinating text that integrates topics pertaining to all scales of the MHD-waves, emphasizing the linkages between the ULF-waves below the ionosphere on the ground and magnetospheric MHD-waves. It will be most helpful to graduate and post-graduate students, familiar with advanced calculus, who study the science of MHD-waves in the magnetosphere and ionosphere. The book deals with Ultra-Low-Frequency (ULF)-electromagnetic waves observed on the Earth and in Space.
