Abstract

Earth science refers to the field of science dealing with planet Earth while space science pertains several scientific disciplines studying the upper atmosphere, space, and celestial bodies rather than Earth. The fuzzy set theory is one of the tools that has been recently used in the earth and space sciences. In this chapter, we review and analyze the papers utilizing fuzzy logic in earth and space science problems from Scopus database. The graphical and tabular illustrations are presented for the subject areas, publication years and sources of the papers on earth and space sciences.
