Abstract

The Earth�s main magnetic field for many applications is well-modelled by a harmonic potential field outside the Earth�s liquid electrically-conducting core. Surface, airborne and satellite magnetic measurements of the present-day field, and archaeomagnetic and palaeomagnetic measurements of the past field lead to interesting potential boundary-value problems with non-standard boundary conditions and associated data analysis problems. I will give a general overview.
