Ijaz,

Yes.

The laws of physics apply equally well above the surface of the Earth as they do below the surface.

What particular things do you have in mind?

Dear Garry

I want to have papers discussing thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, fluid dynamics above and below the surface of earth.

Regards

Ijaz

There are many good books on geology-related thermodynamics that will help you with basic knowledge of the subject. Some books on Igneous and Metamorphic Petrology also give good summary of thermodynamics. Many of the geothermobarometers formulated theoretically or through experiments, can be applied usefully without having a deep knowledge of the theory. but it is good to know the basic principals.

Ciao,

Qasim

Ijaz,

But you surely don't think that the laws of physics change according to whether something is above ground or not?

Pumps, generators, heat exchangers: they all work exactly as they are designed to do so whether they are below or above ground.

I admit, I am puzzled.

Or are you asking about a geochemistry and the study of rocks and mineral fluids?

Very sorry, Garry! that you could not see my question. I mean that surface geological/atmospheric processes following the laws like fluid dynamics, thermodynamics and so on. Similarly, these physical laws are  also equally applicable for endogenetic processes (below the surface of earth/inside the earth) like earthquake wave propagation, heat transfer from core, mantle to crust and super heated water/fluid flow and so many other processes. As a student, I want the valuable comments from experts to know about.
