Over the past half century, major achievements have been made in the study of Earth’s surface structure and kinematics and the internal dynamics of the lithosphere and mantle.
Many of these advances have relied on the integration of data and models from plate tectonics and geodynamics, yet traditional divisions persist in how these two disciplines are taught and practiced.
This textbook bridges the gap, connecting geophysical and geological approaches to understand the physical processes that shape our planet’s evolution.
