Research Interests:
As an earthquake seismologist, I image the Earth using energy from
earthquakes like a doctor images a patient's brain with a CAT scan.
Distributed Computing allows us to compute large scientific problems on 100s-1000s of computers connected over the internet.
Field Deployments: With the ~18 sensor Stanford Broadband Seismic Network (SBSN) I intend to
study tectonically unique regions around the Earth.
- Antarctica
- Alaska
- Madagascar
- Galapagos
Seismic Attenuation is a process by which seismic waves
lose energy. The differences in energy loss for various regions inside the Earth tell us a lot about
the internal dynamics of the Earth.
