M15. Imaging with Waves in Complex Media

The aim of this minisymposium is to bring together scientists working on imaging problems involving wave propagation in complex media. Examples of these problems include media with random fluctuations due to turbulence, randomly distributed discrete particles, and rough interfaces and boundaries. This research area finds applications in diverse fields ranging from underwater acoustics, exploration seismology and geophysics to medical imaging and radar.

This minisymposium will present some of the latest advances in this research area.
