Mathematical Geophysics

Mathematical Geophysics is a branch of science that uses mathematical methods and models to study the Earth's processes, particularly those related to tectonics—how the Earth's plates move and interact. By applying equations, simulations, and statistical analyses, researchers can predict earthquakes, understand mountain formation, and explore other geological activities. This field combines principles from physics and mathematics to analyze data collected from the Earth's surface and subsurface, helping us to grasp the complex dynamics that shape our planet over time.
