Geophysical Data Analysis and Inverse Theory with MATLAB® and Python 5th Edition

Geophysical Data Analysis and Inverse Theory with MATLAB® and Python, 5th Edition by William Menke is an essential, hands-on guide for geophysicists, Earth scientists, and engineers who need rigorous tools for interpreting subsurface data. Clear, authoritative, and up-to-date, this edition bridges theory and practice to help you turn noisy seismic, gravity, magnetic, and electromagnetic observations into reliable models of Earth structure.

Start solving real-world problems with a concise presentation of inverse theory fundamentals—linear and nonlinear inversion, regularization, singular value decomposition, parameter resolution, and uncertainty quantification—paired with practical algorithmic implementations. Worked examples and step-by-step code in MATLAB® and Python make advanced techniques accessible: from tomography and migration to spectral analysis and model selection, you’ll learn how to set up, test, and validate models for exploration, environmental studies, and seismic hazard assessment.

Whether you’re a graduate student learning quantitative geophysics, a researcher refining your inversion workflow, or a professional applying geophysical methods in the field, this edition sharpens your analytical skills and accelerates productive results. The writing is concise and pedagogical, emphasizing intuition, diagnostics, and best practices for robust parameter estimation.
