Research
statement:
My primary research area is the analysis of seismic waves in the
Earth. This rather broad statement
can be subdivided into two main areas of interest: 1) inverting seismic
waves for Earth properties, and 2) signal detection and analysis.
In addition to seismology projects, I maintain an active undergraduate
research program in geology, geophysics, and physics. In the past, I was involved with geologic
mapping portions of the Dog Canyon area of Big Bend National Park in deep
west Texas and geophysical investigations of potential Basin and Range
faults adjacent to the South Persimmon Gap Laccolith, also in Big
Bend. Currently, undergraduates are
helping me collect and analyze seismic signals.
