What is Physical Geodesy : A Theoretical Introduction about?

This book is intended as a comprehensive but accessible introduction to Physical Geodesy, one of the largest subdisciplines of Geodesy dealing with the theory, determination, and representation of the Earth’s external gravity field, which significantly overlaps adjacent disciplines such as geophysics and orbitalmechanics.The objectives are twofold: (1) to serve as a first course textbook addressing the contemporary understanding of Physical Geodesy; (2) to expand students’ knowledge and skills in those areas of mathematics essential to this subdiscipline, preparing them for more advanced study and research in this field. Students are required to have a good understanding of single and multivariable calculus and some elementary knowledge of ordinary differential equations and matrix algebra.Some knowledge of the least squares method is desirable, but not necessary. This is a mathematical background similar to that acquired by most physical science or engineering undergraduates during their freshman and sophomore years. Beyond such a requirement, this book is self-sufficient.
