This is the second volume of the topical issue "Mathematics andGeosciences: Global and Local Perspectives" which embraces 21 papers ondifferent topics relating to Mathematics and Geosciences. They addressdifferent topics under both global and local perspectives, such as a method forcalculating probabilities for large events in systems such as earthquakes,typhoons, etc.; the use of the Laplace-Fourier-domain full waveform inversiontechnique to deep-sea seismic data; discrete element modeling; step-edgedetection filters, study of a transition zone of the Narmada-Son lineament;integral formulae for recovering the sub-crustal stress from terrestrialgravimetric data; numerical simulations of earthquake fault systems and theiruse to estimate gravity changes; application of Gaussian clustering to jointinterpretation of seismic and magnetotelluric data; on the reliability andfidelity of archaeomagnetic and volcanic records to recover the past evolutionof the Earth's magnetic field; the study, for the first time, of variations inabsolute surface geostrophic currents (SGC) using satellite data only;discussion of the inconsistency of IAU2000 non-rigid earth nutation model; thestudy of nonlinear anisotropic diffusive filtering applied to the ocean´s MDT;the numerical solution of a nonhydrostatic ocean model; Hydrological-Hydraulicmodels; Steiner rearrangement of a function to study the effectiveness ofchemical reactors for the treatment of wastewaters; GNSS software; the study ofthe fractal dimensions for the identification of bedrock lithology; the studyof the Uruk archaeological site (southern Iraq) by integrated geophysicalmethods; mathematical model for patchy landscapes; study of pore space soilstructure; and the results of comparison between transverse electric-typefields and between transverse magnetic and transverse electromagnetic fields.
