Research InterestsMy research focuses on earthquake sources and their ground motion. The ambient seismic noise carries great information on how seismic waves propagate in the shallow crust. I extract such information to understand the shallow crustal structure and to predict shaking of future moderate and large earthquakes. Some metropolitan areas are densely populated and exposed to large earthquakes, and my research focuses on predicting shaking at frequencies that tall buildings are sensitive to. Shallow earthquakes are a direct hazard for population and my research aims to understand their source mechanisms. Why do some earthquakes rupture at the surface and some don't? What physical mechanisms explain that some earthquakes radiated more seismic energy than others? I develop tools to extract relevant information on earthquake dynamics from observed waveforms.Curriculum vitaeEducation 2014 Ph.D. (Geophysics), Stanford University: Seismic Hazard Analysis using the Ambient Seismic Field 2008 Master (Geophysics), Institut de Physique du Globe de Paris, France 2006 License (Earth-Atmosphere-Ocean), Ecole Normale Superieure-Paris, France Professional Experience 2016- Assistant Professor in Earth and Planetary Sciences and at the Radcliffe Institute, Harvard University 2014-2015 Green Scholar (Postdoctoral Fellow), Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UCSD Honors and Awards 2012 Outstanding Student Paper Award, American Geophysical Union 2012 Outstanding Student Paper Award, Seismological Society of America 2010 Outstanding Student Paper Award, American Geophysical Union |
