Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

The journal publishes research on geophysical methods for subsurface characterization. This includes seismic data processing techniques like deblending, noise attenuation, and full-waveform inversion, often employing deep learning approaches. Other areas covered are electromagnetic methods such as magnetotellurics and electrical resistivity tomography, and the analysis of elastic wave propagation and attenuation in various geological settings.
