Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The use of surface waves for imaging and understanding subsurface structures and processes has a long tradition. While initially focused on crust and mantle structures, the methodology has significantly co-evolved with advances in instrumentation, processing and interpretation techniques (e.g., seismic interferometry). By today, surface wave seismology is implemented at a wide range of spatial scales and in a variety of application scenarios such as local and regional seismic exploration, shallow geotechnical characterization, time-lapse monitoring, or large-scale geologic and tectonic interpretation.
This Special Issue calls for contributions on the topics of:
- Novel processing and interpretation techniques for surface waves;
- Case studies on active and passive surface wave imaging;
- Time-lapse monitoring using surface waves;
- Advancements in theory, modelling, and waveform inversion of surface waves;
- Interdisciplinary applications of surface wave methods;
- Challenges of and solutions for large datasets (e.g., industry-scale acquisition, large N-arrays, DAS acquisition, continuous monitoring).

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Geosciences is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1800 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
