Intended for geophysicists, physicists, electronics engineers and geologists, as well as undergraduates, graduates and university researchers in the fields, this book describes the physical and mathematical principles of geophysical methods, and illustrates the behaviour of fields applied to geophysical data. Among the topics covered are the physical laws governing field behaviour; the influence of a medium on a field; systems of field equation; boundary value problems; auxiliary fields; approximate methods of field calculation; field behaviour in typical situations, for both forward and inverse problems; harmonic, source and vortex fields, and flux; and Green's formulas.
