# 🌋 MIGRATE Project — Multidisciplinary and InteGRated Approach for geoThermal Exploration |
|
|
|
|
|
**MIGRATE** (*Multidisciplinary and InteGRated Approach for geoThermal Exploration*) is a scientific project that bridges **seismology** and **machine learning** to develop a new generation of automated, reproducible and high-resolution exploration tools for the Earth's upper crust. |
|
|
|
|
|
## 🎯 Motivation |
|
|
|
|
|
Reducing the acceleration of climate change is one of the great challenges of our time. As part of the global transition toward sustainable energy, **geothermal energy** offers a renewable and stable alternative to fossil fuels. |
|
|
|
|
|
However, its development is hindered by a lack of reliable subsurface knowledge, which creates high geological and economic risks. **MIGRATE** aims to address this gap by creating innovative methods that **reduce uncertainty in passive seismic exploration**, using dense nodal networks and state-of-the-art data-driven models. |
|
|
|
|
|
## 🔬 Scientific Approach |
|
|
|
|
|
MIGRATE integrates three complementary disciplines: |
|
|
|
|
|
- **Seismology** — ambient noise surface wave tomography, dispersion curve analysis |
|
|
- **Machine Learning** — generative modeling, contrastive learning, neural surrogate inversion, and digital twins |
|
|
|
|
|
These domains are tightly coupled to: |
|
|
|
|
|
- Automate the inversion of surface wave dispersion curves |
|
|
- Learn expressive representations of crustal velocity models |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## 🧠 AI for Earth Models |
|
|
|
|
|
We develop machine learning methods to capture the physical structure of the subsurface, with: |
|
|
|
|
|
- 🌪 **Normalizing Flows** for probabilistic inversion and generative modeling |
|
|
- 🎯 **Contrastive encoders** to structure seismic representations |
|
|
- 🧩 **Latent representations** to compress complex velocity models |
|
|
- 🔁 **Self-supervised learning** for unsupervised geophysical understanding |
|
|
|
|
|
These tools are released as **open-source** datasets and pretrained models on Hugging Face. |
