Description
Summary:—The paper presents the review of the conceptually most important results of seismological studies of the Earth’s core and their interpretation from the standpoint of geodynamics in three directions: anisotropy of seismic velocities and seismic attenuation, structural features of the transition zone between the outer and inner core, and differential rotation of the inner core.
