About Sir Edward Bullard
Sir Edward Bullard was a noted geophysicist who’s research focused on dynamo theory, the source of the Earth’s magnetic field, and heat flow from the Earth. His research on continental drift furthered the idea of the supercontinent Pangaea. He has made important contributions to the origins of the magnetic field (dynamo theory) and is well-known for his theory of the Continental Drift. This lecture is about the geology of the deep oceans.
