===Geophysics=== Optimization techniques are regularly used in [[geophysics|geophysical]] parameter estimation problems. Given a set of geophysical measurements, e.g. [[seismology|seismic recordings]], it is common to solve for the [[mineral physics|physical properties]] and [[structure of the earth|geometrical shapes]] of the underlying rocks and fluids. The majority of problems in geophysics are nonlinear with both deterministic and stochastic methods being widely used.
