The concept of open and reproducible research is not entirely new to the field of geophysics, as evidenced by previous studies such as Fomel et al. (2013). However, the advent of artificial intelligence (AI) and cloud computing have greatly simplified the sharing of technology and resources, and this has accelerated innovation (Lowndes et al., 2017) and brought about a shift in the mindset of geoscientists. For the papers gathered in this special section, the authors made extensive use of open-source material in their underlying research, and they have, in turn, made their data, code, and software tools freely available.
