Wel­come to my web­site!

My research focus­es on active tec­ton­ics of con­ti­nen­tal faults. I use geo­desy and remote-sens­ing, earth­quake relo­ca­tion, and geo­log­ic and geo­mor­phic map­ping to char­ac­ter­ize and mod­el the source fault, obtain slip dis­tri­b­u­tion, and esti­mate the size and extent of past rup­tures. I study what aspects of the fault sys­tem (such as struc­tur­al matu­ri­ty, fault trace com­plex­i­ty) may con­trol earth­quake rup­ture behav­iours (such as shal­low slip deficit). I am also inter­est­ed in bridg­ing these obser­va­tions with ground motion data to pro­vide impli­ca­tions for seis­mic haz­ard assess­ment.
