GeoTalk: meet Andreas Kvas, researcher of Earth’s gravity affected by climate change!
Hello Andreas. Welcome to GeoTalk! You’re a specialist in Geodesy, and your research surveys the Earth’s spatial and gravitational properties as they relate to climate change. Could you tell us more about how Geodesy can help us understand climate change? Geodesy studies Earth’s geometric shape, orientation in space, and gravity field. Each of these components changes in time and is af ...[Read More]
