Professor Roman Teisseyre, the outstanding modern geophysicist, was one of the most important and influential persons in the whole history of the Institute of Geophysics, Polish Academy of Sciences. His death ended the era ...

In recent years, Ethiopia is facing problems due to soil erosion, mainly because of the conversion of natural vegetation into cultivated land to answer to increasing human pressure. Such changes in coverage are fostering ...

Assessing and improving the quality of education in universities can play a prominent role in developing countries. This study aims to demonstrate an extensive methodology with a related algorithm for assessing the quality ...

Full-waveform inversion (FWI) is an effective method for imaging subsurface properties using sparsely recorded data. It involves solving a wave propagation problem to estimate model parameters that accurately reproduce the ...

Extreme high flows can have negative economic, social, and ecological effects and are expected to become more severe in many regions due to climate change. Knowledge of maximum flow regimes and estimation of extreme rainfall ...

We are pleased to present the report from the second edition of the geological workshop SvalGeoBase II, titled “Tectono-thermal evolution of Svalbard – from metamorphic and magmatic processes to geothermal energy”. Held ...

Elastic full-waveform inversion (EFWI) is a process used to estimate subsurface properties by fitting seismic data while satisfying wave propagation physics. The problem is formulated as a least-squares data fitting ...

Full-waveform inversion (FWI) is a large-scale nonlinear ill-posed problem for which computationally expensive Newton-type methods can become trapped in undesirable local minima, particularly when the initial model lacks ...

Understanding the orientation of geologic structures is crucial for analyzing the complexity of the earths’ subsurface. For instance, information about geologic structure orientation can be incorporated into local anisotropic ...

The 42nd International School of Hydraulics, titled “Freshwater System Health: A Hydraulic Perspective”, held on May 20–23, 2025, in Radocza near Kraków, continued a series of events focused on broadly understood hydraulics. ...

Spatiotemporal variations of sediments transported along rivers play a crucial role in a wide spectrum of uses, such as navigation, recreation, habitats or river environmental protection. The advancement in technology has ...

The Polar Symposium is a recurrent conference, typically occurring every two years, dedicated to Arctic and Antarctic topics, with a long tradition dating back to 1972. Since then, these meetings have been an excellent ...

Scientific monitoring data sits behind closed portals. The literature grows faster than any researcher can read. AI is reshaping science, often by amplifying citation-chasing instead of discovery. OpenMonitor is a concrete ...
