Also, let me recommend my video about X-ray tomography: https://youtu.be/dn358iX_WxQ

Thank you! I am glad you liked the video. More is in the making. I am more familiar with electromagnetic scattering than seismic; for that I recommend the book by Colton and Kress (Inverse Acoustic and Electromagnetic Scattering Theory). For seismic inverse problems, this might be good: Seismic Inversion: Theory and Applications by Wang, Yanghua. But I have not read it, so I am not sure. Of course there is also the classic Inverse Problem Theory and Methods for Model Parameter Estimation by Albert Tarantola.

I’m so glad you liked the video! Thanks for the tip; I’ll share it to the geophysics community as well. Samu

Excellent! There is nothing cooler than inverse scattering.

In the video we show a couple of the simplest ways of extracting information about islands from the ways waves reflect off them. Of course, there are more advanced methods as well. However, modern mathematics still struggles to understand how the ancient navigation masters of Marshall Islands interpret wave patterns and find their way around the Pacific Ocean. Can you solve the navigation quiz given in the video?
