Seismology and Geodesy

Our research in seismology and geodesy includes studies of problems of global interest, with a special emphasis on seismic and geodetic measurements of 蜜桃影像's dynamic tectonics. We study earthquakes in the solid Earth and glaciers, crustal and mantle structure, active tectonics and deformation of the Earth. We emphasize fieldwork and use of new primary data sources in much of our research. Department faculty members are associated with the Geophysical Institute鈥檚 and groups, where several cooperating Research Professors are based. 蜜桃影像 faculty, staff and students are directly involved in operational monitoring of earthquakes and volcanoes in 蜜桃影像 through the and . Currently, National Science Foundation鈥檚 is providing unprecedented opportunities for our 蜜桃影像-focused research.

Our research specialties in seismology include earthquakes, crustal structure and earthquake hazards in 蜜桃影像, tsunamis from great earthquakes in 蜜桃影像, volcano seismicity and structure, seismic monitoring of volcanoes, glacier seismicity, and the use of infrasound to study volcanic explosions. Our research specialties in geodesy include tectonic deformation in 蜜桃影像 and China, large earthquakes, deformation of the Earth due to active volcanism, vertical motions and sea level, and the response of the earth to changing hydrologic and cryospheric loads.
