In geophysics, tomography is a technique which deduces some physical properties of the medium from the perturbations encountered by waves propagating through it. Thus tomography draws on a variety of disciplines, such as wave propagation in heterogeneous media, statistical estimation and inverse theory, and numerical modeling. These subjects take different forms when applied to solid Earth geophysics or to physical oceanography. The aim of the 50th session of the Les Houches Summer School was to present in detail theoretical and practical aspects of tomography in geophysics and oceanography. One of the goals was to bring together students and practitioners of the two fields to teach, discuss and exchange ideas on all the components of tomography, to point out common approaches and to contrast various specific applications. The resulting book shows the diversity and vitality of this field of research and underlines the variety of disciplines involved.

Preface. 1. Probabilistic foundations of inverse theory (A. Tarantola). 2. Theoretical seismology (P.G. Richards). 3. Asymptotic theory of normal modes and surface waves (B. Romanowicz). 4. Ocean acoustic tomography (Y. Desaubies). 5. Using data with models: ill-posed and time-dependent ill-posed problems (C. Wunsch). 6. Seismic numerical modeling (D. Kosloff and D. Kessler). 7. Ocean seismo-acoustic modeling: numerical methods (F.B. Jensen). 8. A unifying view of inversion (P. Mora). 9. Inversion of low-frequency electromagnetic data (T. Madden). 10. Inverse methods in ocean bottom acoustics (G. Frisk). 11. Some practical aspects of ocean acoustic tomography (B. Cornuelle).
