This course aims at learning the outlines of geophysics. The following items, which are actively investigated at the Department of Geophysics, are especially focused on;
Selected topics from seismology, volcanology, and plate tectonics for the purpose of obtaining a basic knowledge about the structure and dynamics of the solid earth.
Selected topics from meteorology, global warming, and physical climatology for the purpose of obtaining a basic knowledge about climate change and related global environment problems.
Selected topics from geomagnetism, upper atmosphere physics, and planetary science for the purpose of obtaining a basic knowledge about the electromagnetic environment of the earth and planets.
The evaluation will be mainly based on a record of attendance, and contribution to discussions.
