Earth's core : dynamics, structure, rotation

This volume contains seventeen papers that are a mixture of presented papers from the Geophysical Union session on Core Dynamics, held in the Fall of 2000 in San Francisco, and invited papers for this volume. An international group of contributors present their research on topics grouped under the broad themes of seismology, mineral physics, geomagnetics and geodynamics, and geodosy. Individual topics include the Earth's free oscillations and the differential rotation of the inner core, complexity in PKP travel time data, thermal core-mantle interactions, and the core and fluctuations in the Earth's rotation.
