GEODESY AND ACTIVE TECTONICS

I use GPS and other satellite observations to image the gradual accumulation of tectonic strain along faults, and the release of that strain as earthquakes. My research focuses on mathematical and computational methods to model these observations and better understand earthquake hazard and active plate tectonics.
