Geophysics

Geophysics aims to explore many of the physical properties of the Earth, both inside and outside of its crust. In spite of its applications to climate change and many other of the biggest issues humanity faces today, geophysics is often described as one of the least diverse faculties of the sciences. This does not, however, mean that minority geophysicists have not made important contributions, and it is precisely this diverse array of people who we aim to celebrate.
