Tóm tắt	Geophysical inversion is the process of using observed geophysical data to estimate subsurface properties and structures. Formalized by Tikhonov (1963) and expanded by Tarantola (1987), this mathematical framework solves the inverse problem: given measurements (gravity, magnetics, seismic, electrical), what subsurface model produced them? Inversion is central to all quantitative geophysics and enables extraction of detailed subsurface information from surface or borehole measurements.	Basin subsidence analysis is the quantitative study of how sedimentary basins deepen over geological time, driven by tectonics, isostasy, and load. Formalized by McKenzie (1978) and Sclater and Christie (1980), this method reveals the mechanical causes of basin development, predicts subsurface temperature and pressure histories, and constrains petroleum generation. Analysis integrates well stratigraphy, seismic geometry, gravity data, and thermal models to reconstruct basin evolution.	Well log analysis is the systematic examination of measurements recorded by instruments lowered into a borehole to characterize subsurface lithology, fluid content, and petrophysical properties. Originating in the 1940s, this method has become indispensable for petroleum exploration, groundwater assessment, and engineering geology. Well logs provide direct depth-correlated data that anchor interpretation of seismic surveys and constrain reservoir models.
