Geophysical Data Analysis: Diverse Inverse Theory, Fourth Edition is a revised and expanded introduction to inverse theory and tomography as it is practiced by geophysicists. It demonstrates the methods needed to analyze a broad spectrum of geophysical datasets, with special attention to those methods that generate images of the earth. Data analysis can be a mathematically complex activity, but the treatment in this volume is carefully designed to emphasize those mathematical techniques that readers will find the most familiar and to systematically introduce less-familiar ones._x000D_
Using problems and case studies, along with MATLAB computer code and summaries of methods, the book provides data scientists and engineers in geophysics with the tools necessary to understand and apply mathematical techniques and inverse theory._x000D_
Includes material on probability, including Bayesian influence, probability density function and metropolis algorithm_x000D_
Offers detailed discussion of the application of inverse theory to tectonic, gravitational and geomagnetic studies_x000D_
Contains numerous examples, color figures and end-of-chapter homework problems to help readers explore and further understand presented ideas_x000D_
Includes MATLAB examples and problem sets_x000D_
Updated and refined throughout to bring the text in line with current understanding and improved examples and case studies_x000D_
Expanded sections to cover material, such as second-derivation smoothing and chi-squared tests not covered in the previous edition
