Jeannot Trampert - Curriculum Vitae#
Research Interests
- Full waveform inversion and inverse theory in general
- Seismic tomography (uncertainty analysis and thermo-chemical interpretation) with special focus on anisotropy and density imaging
- (Numerical) wave propagation in complex media
- Advanced processing of seismic data using pattern recognition techniques
- Seismic interferometry
University Teaching
- Data Processing and inverse theory, a pillar of the geophysics curriculum which I taught in various forms every year since my arrival in Utrecht
- Introduction to Geophysics, until 1996
- Advanced Inverse Theory, until 2004
- Mechanics, until 1998
- Theoretical Seismology, co-taught with Hanneke Paulssen, I focus on surface waves and normal modes, until 2015
- Rock Physics, until 1996
- Special Relativity, until 1998
- Thermodynamics and Internal Structure of the Earth, a first year Master course developed for Utrecht University which is followed by 20-25 students with a background in geophysics, geology and geophysics
- Applied geophysics, I revived and redeveloped this course last year for Master students in earth sciences.
