Earth science and geoscience br? Dissecting this planet? Deep scientific principles are hidden in the roundness of the planet we live on. This is a new introduction to earth science from "geodetic science". What is the shape of the earth? By "measuring" the appearance of the blue planet from space, we can see its deep mechanisms from plate tectonics to climate change. Welcome to the fascinating world of earth science from "geodetic science"! [Main Contents] Chapter 1 contents] Chapter 1 Hot learning to know the earth What is geodetic science? Chapter 2 The earth is said to be round. Form of the earth Chapter 3 Is the earth solid? Basic knowledge of the earth's internal structure Chapter 4 Principles of earth traditional ground survey techniques measured since BC Chapter 5 Principles of continuous observation that does not miss small deformations Chapter 6 Measurement techniques that changed geodetic science Principle of satellite geodetic survey and observation of surface deformation Chapter 7 Measurement of gravity that changes mass transfer from space Chapter 8 Whether the length of the day is constant Measurement of earth rotation Chapter 9 Global warming is the deformation of the earth due to not only temperature but also climate change Chapter 10 Earth deformation due to earthquakes Chapter 11 Crustal deformation Earth revealed by observation Earth deformation due to volcanic activity Chapter 13 Human beings are also changing the shape of the earth Deformation due to artificial factors
