Full‐waveform inversion (FWI) is a powerful geophysical imaging technique that reproduces
high‐resolution subsurface physical parameters by iteratively minimizing the misfit between …

To understand the evolution of the Alpine orogen, knowledge of the actual structure of the
lithosphere‐asthenosphere system is important. We perform high‐resolution teleseismic …

Tomography provides three-dimensional images of heterogeneous materials or engineering
