Coriolis force in geophysics: an elementary introduction and examples

We show how geophysics can illustrate and thus improve classical mechanics lectures concerning the study of Coriolis force effects. Here, we are interested in atmospheric and oceanic phenomena, with which we are familiar, and which are for that reason of pedagogical and practical interest. Our aim is to model them in a very simple way to bring out the physical phenomena that are involved.

An Elementary Introduction to Atomic Force Microscopy and Related Methods

An introduction to electrical resistivity in geophysics

Physicists are finding that the skills they have learned in their training may be applied to areas beyond traditional physics topics. One such field is that of geophysics. This paper presents the electrical resistivity component of an undergraduate geophysics course at Radford University. It is taught from a physics perspective, yet the application of the theory to the real world is the overrid...

Examples of Nonuniqueness for an Inverse Problem of Geophysics*

Two different velocity profiles and a source term are constructed such that the surface data are the same for all times and are not identically zero. The governing equation is c −2 (x)utt − ∆u = f (x, t) in D
