Info autore

Brian Kennett is Emeritus Professor of Seismology at the Australian National University. His research interests are directed towards understanding the structure of the Earth from seismological observations. He is the recipient of numerous awards and medals for his work and is a Fellow of the Australian Academy of Sciences and the Royal Society (London). He the author of more than 300 research papers and nine books.Andreas Fichtner is Professor of Seismology and Wave Physics at ETH Zurich. His work is focused on the development of waveform tomography methods using high-performance computing, and their application in seismology and medical imaging. He is the recipient of several awards, including the 2011 Aki award of the American Geophysical Union, and is the editor or author of three other books.

Riassunto

An overview of recent developments in seismology including the application of correlation techniques, multi-scale heterogeneity and the extraction of structure and source information by seismic waveform inversion. Describing algorithms and examples of waveform inversion, it provides an excellent resource for students and researchers in seismology.
