We introduced the importance of geophysics in Earth System Sciences and for various industry applications. This was done among other with interviews of geophysicists Emma Pearce, Michael Schwartz, and Sarah Siebert. A topical introduction to wave-based methods (seismics and radar) in geophysics was provided.
