Research Areas

My primary research interests focus on signals generated by earthquakes (large and small) as
well as seismic signals generated by shallow environmental forces. My current and recent research projects related to earthquakes include using small magnitude earthquakes to probe fault conditions in many of the global subduction zones, including along the Pacific Northwest of North America and Costa Rica, as well as using local earthquakes in central New Mexico to study the mid-crustal Socorro magma body. For some of the local studies of the Socorro magma body, my students and I have used the large-N seismic instrument capabilities of the EarthScope instrumentation facility (EPIC), also housed 在NMT,部署数百个地震仪器.


I am also highly engaged in the growing field of environmental seismology, using seismic energy produced from shallow/surficial processes to help characterize these environmental forces.  My current projects in this area include characterizing flow in a shallow karst aquifer in northern Florida as well as tracking bedload movement during monsoon 新墨西哥州和以色列的山洪暴发.  这些项目都是跨学科的, with colleagues in hydrology, geodesy, and geomorphology all involved in field data 收集和分析.
