3.3 Seismic imaging: "seeing" the inside of the Earth - w/ Eleanna, Tomàs & Christina The Science Basement Podcast

Who would have thought that scientists can actually make a CT-Scan to see the "inner organs of the Earth"?
With seismic imaging scientists are looking inside the Earth trying to figure out what material is beneath our feet without digging a hole!

Our guest this week is Christina Tsarsitalidou, a first-year PhD student at the Institute of Seismology, University of Helsinki.
In her Phd Christina aims at performing the imaging between the lowermost crust and upper mantle of the Earth.
