Regularization strategy for the layered inversion of airborne TEM data: application to VTEM data acquired over the basin of Franceville (Gabon) [PDF]
, 2011 Airborne transient electromagnetic (TEM) is a cost-effective method to image the distribution of electrical conductivity in the ground. We consider layered earth inversion to interpret large data sets of hundreds of kilometre. Different strategies can be

Multiple common garden experiments suggest lack of local adaptation in an invasive ornamental plant [PDF]
, 2011 Aims: Adaptive evolution along geographic gradients of climatic conditions is suggested to facilitate the spread of invasive plant species, leading to clinal variation among populations in the introduced range.

Image Interpretation Using Appraisal Analysis [PDF]
, 2006 In geophysical inversion, a significant effort is invested to obtain images of the Earth from finite data. The first step is to obtain an image i.e. solve the inverse problem.

Transition from connected to fragmented vegetation across an environmental gradient: scaling laws in ecotone geometry [PDF]
, 2009 A change in the environmental conditions across space—for example, altitude or latitude—can cause significant changes in the density of a vegetation type and, consequently, in spatial connectivity.

Lipschitz stability for the electrostatic inverse boundary value problem with piecewise linear conductivities [PDF]
, 2015 We consider the electrostatic inverse boundary value problem also known as electrical impedance tomography (EIT) for the case where the conductivity is a piecewise linear function on a domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ and we show that a Lipschitz ...

Moho topography beneath the Corinth Rift area (Greece) from inversion of gravity data [PDF]
, 2001 International audienceOur aim is to understand better the rifting process by imaging the Moho depth variation beneath Corinth and Evvia. We present here the results of a gravity inversion analysis in the region of the Corinth and Evvia rift system, and ...
