Presentation Transcript

  1. What’s Geophysics • Understanding the Earth’s composition and dynamics, and their relationships with the surface geological phenomena, using the means of Physics. • Analogy: How do you figure out what is going on inside an apple, egg, golf ball, human body, without slicing it open? (Suggestions: you can weigh it, spin it, heat it, probe it with electromagnetism, etc. You can also look at what is naturally emitted from it.)

  2. Tapping the Earth

  3. Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE)
