  2. The Earth's Variable Rotation

    Geophysical Causes and Consequences

    • 464 pages
    • 17 hours of reading

    Exploring the irregular rotation of the Earth, this book delves into the geophysical mechanisms that drive these variations. It examines the complex interactions between the Earth's core, mantle, and crust, providing insights into how these factors influence rotational changes. The analysis combines theoretical frameworks with empirical data, offering a comprehensive understanding of the Earth's dynamics and the implications for our understanding of time and climate patterns.

  3. This monograph on generalised functions, Fourier integrals and Fourier series is intended for readers who, while accepting that a theory where each point is proved is better than one based on conjecture, nevertheless seek a treatment as elementary and free from complications as possible.
