Reconstructing Digital Elevation Models From Single Synthetic Aperture Radar Images
Abstract Traditional radar‐based methods of generating topography involve complex dual‐antenna or formation‐flying satellite configurations, interferometric processing, and specialized expertise. We present an approach for reconstructing digital elevation models (DEMs) from single Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images using deep learning.

Rock Physics of the Critical Zone: Models, Inversion, and Interpretation
Abstract Rock physics models link geophysical measurements with subsurface petrophysical properties, such as porosity, mineral composition, and fluid saturation. While originally developed for hydrocarbon exploration, these models are increasingly applied in the near surface for quantitative interpretation of geophysical data.
