Planet-scale MRI: High resolution illumination of Earth's interior down to the planet's core with 3D global numerical simulations - Science Daily

Researchers presented the results of efforts to perform global full waveform inversions of the Earth using the Frontera supercomputer. They used data from 300 earthquakes to construct the new global full wave inversion models that include attenuation and azim…

Earthquakes do more than buckle streets and topple buildings. Seismic waves generated by earthquakes pass through the Earth, acting like a giant MRI machine and providing clues to what lies inside th… [+7083 chars]
