Physical properties and processes of the Earth and planets. The generation of the Earth's gravitational and geomagnetic fields and seismicity, and the use of gravity, magnetics, earthquakes, and satellite data in global geophysics to understand the development of internal planetary structure and impact on the evolution of earth and life.
