This book contains theory and applications of gravity both for
physical geodesy and geophysics. It identifies classical and modern
topics for studying the Earth. Worked-out examples illustrate basic
but important concepts of the Earth's gravity field. In addition,
coverage details the Geodetic Reference System 1980, a versatile
tool in most applications of gravity data. The authors first
introduce the necessary mathematics. They then review classic
physical geodesy, including its integral formulas, height systems
and their determinations. The next chapter presents modern physical
geodesy starting with the original concepts of M.S. Molodensky. A
major part of this chapter is a variety of modifying Stokes'
formula for geoid computation by combining terrestrial gravity data
and an Earth Gravitational Model. Coverage continues with a
discussion that compares today's methods for modifying Stokes'
formulas for geoid and quasigeoid determination, a description of
several modern tools in physical geodesy, and a review of methods
for gravity inversion as well as analyses for temporal changes of
the gravity field. This book aims to broaden the view of scientists
and students in geodesy and geophysics. With a focus on theory, it
provides basic and some in-depth knowledge about the field from a
geodesist's perspective.
