Geophysics Bright Spots
Welcome to the latest installment of Geophysics Bright Spots. For most of us, the pandemic has upended our daily routines. Personally, a minor silver lining in all of this chaos has been the gain of a few extra hours every week. I have used this time to catch up on the fascinating work being done in the field of artificial intelligence and its applications to numerous disciplines. An emerging trend is physics-informed machine learning, which will help us bridge the gap between traditional theoretical approaches and more recent data-driven methodologies, leading to physically plausible and meaningful results. To follow is a list of research that the editors found interesting in the latest issue of Geophysics. I sincerely hope these articles enlighten you and take your mind off some of the chaos surrounding us.
