A practical course on inversion techniques in geophysics. Linear discrete inverse problems will be discussed, and an appreciation for the concepts of non-uniqueness, determinacy, and the use of a priori information will be emphasized. Students will be encouraged to use the techniques discussed in class in a computer laboratory and will be required to complete a term project with a written report, and a seminar. Weekly hours: 2 Lecture hours and 2 Practicum/Lab hoursPrerequisite(s): MATH 226, 338, GEOL 483, GEOE 414; or permission of the instructor.
