WIT Consortium

The Wave Inversion Technology Consortium (WIT) was established in 1996 by Peter Hubral at the University of Karsruhe, Germany. When Peter retired in 2006 he handed over the WIT direction to Dirk Gajewski at the University of Hamburg. The WIT research team is internationally and globally distributed. It consists of three integrated working groups, at the University of Hamburg, Germany and two teams at other universities, being the Mathematical Geophysics Group at the University of Campinas (UNICAMP), Brazil, and the Geophysical Institute of the University of Karlsruhe, Germany. The WIT research team takes a lot of benefit from its research affiliates, NORSAR in Kjeller, Norway, and Fraunhofer ITWM in Kaiserslautern, Germany.
