From the Earth's Core to Outer Space focuses on four themes: (1)
Evolving Earth s crust, (2) Changing Baltic Sea, (3) Climate
Change, and (4) Planet Earth, third stone from Sun. The focus on
these four topics provides both a state of the art review of earth
science topics of particular importance to Scandinavia and the
Baltic and also the global context in which a consideration of
these topics must be made. It finishes by discussing our use of
space born technologies for understanding these topics and places
the Earth within the context of our neighbouring planets and their
satellites.
The first theme includes papers on the structure, origin and
evolution of the Earth s crust and in particular the ore deposits
in Fennoscandia, plate-tectonic drift of Fennoscandia (Baltica),
and postglacial isostatic rebound of the crust. The second theme
contains papers dealing with changes in the ice season of the
Baltic Sea, inflow and stagnation in deep basins, biology of the
Baltic Sea, and carbon dioxide balance in sea water. The third
theme deals with origin and evolution of oxygen in atmosphere,
postglacial climate change, effects of aerosols and greenhouse
gases on climate, interplay between anthropogenic and natural
factors in the current climate change, and Earth s water resources.
The fourth theme includes articles on Earth s space environment,
use of satellites in cartography and geodesy, information obtained
by space probes on Mars and other planets and their moons, and
possibilities to find life on them."
