Karl Bernhard Zoeppritz was a German geophysicist, best known for his contributions to seismic wave theory and reflection seismology. He is particularly famous for the Zoeppritz equations, which describe how seismic waves behave when they encounter a boundary between different geological layers. These equations are fundamental in the field of exploration geophysics, as they help in understanding and interpreting data from seismic surveys, particularly in oil and gas exploration.
