Many geological features of the Earth's lithosphere create
variations in the Earth's magnetic field that can be detected by
satellites. The resulting magnetic anomaly maps can provide new
insights into the tectonic features and broad structures of the
lithosphere. This book documents the acquisition, reduction and
analysis of satellite magnetic field data in the study of the
Earth's lithosphere. The text considers issues of interpreting
data, summarizes various interpretation methods, considers rock
magnetism concepts and sources of variation in magnetism, and
provides a complete summary of published maps and the methods used
to create them. Mapping and interpreting lithospheric fields from
satellite magnetic data has resulted in the new subdiscipline of
geomagnetism. Advanced students and researchers will find that The
Magnetic Field of the Earth's Lithosphere provides a much needed
review of this important topic.
