Seismic full-waveform inversion (FWI) for imaging Earth's interior was introduced in the late
1970s. Its ultimate goal is to use all of the information in a seismogram to understand the …

Seismic tomography is a powerful tool for illuminating Earth structure across a range of
scales, but the usefulness of any image that is generated by this method is dependent on …

To better understand the subsurface behavior of subducting slabs and their relation to the
tectonic evolution of the overriding plate, we conduct a full waveform inversion on a large …

The radially anisotropic shear velocity structure of the Earth's mantle provides a critical
window on the interior dynamics of the planet, with isotropic variations that are interpreted in …

Long-standing debates exist over the timing and mechanism of uplift of the Tibetan Plateau
and, more specifically, over the connection between lithospheric evolution and surface …

Full waveform inversion (FWI) is a powerful method for reconstructing subsurface
parameters from local measurements of the seismic wavefield. This method consists in …

Images of the European crust and upper mantle, created using seismic tomography, identify
the Cenozoic Rift System and related volcanism in central and western Europe. They also …

We develop and apply a full waveform inversion method that incorporates seismic data on a
wide range of spatio-temporal scales, thereby constraining the details of both crustal and …

We present the theory for and applications of Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (HMC) solutions of
linear and nonlinear tomographic problems. HMC rests on the construction of an artificial …

We propose a new method for the quantitative resolution analysis in full seismic waveform
inversion that overcomes the limitations of classical synthetic inversions while being …
