The inner core is a planet within a planet: a hot sphere with a
mass of one hundred quintillion tons of iron and nickel that lies
more than 5000 kilometres beneath our feet. It plays a crucial role
in driving outer core fluid motion and the geodynamo, which
generates the Earth's magnetic field. This book is the first to
provide a comprehensive review of past and contemporary research on
the Earth's inner core from a seismological perspective. Chapters
cover the collection, processing and interpretation of
seismological data, as well as our current knowledge of the
structure, anisotropy, attenuation, rotational dynamics, and
boundary of the inner core. Reviewing the latest research and
suggesting new seismological techniques and future avenues, it is
an essential resource for both seismologists and non-seismologists
interested in this fascinating field of research. It will also form
a useful resource for courses in seismology and deep Earth
processes.
