Research Interests
Our group focuses on the analysis of active crustal deformation using GNSS and InSAR, with particular interest in the detection and interpretation of transient deformation events such as slow slip, postseismic transients, and aseismic creep. We combine field observations, time series analysis, and physical modeling to better understand the mechanics of subduction zones.
Exchange participants have the opportunity to participate in a one-week field campaign to collect geodetic data, followed by three weeks of collaborative data analysis and interpretation. Our lab fosters an inclusive and collaborative environment, with close mentoring and frequent group discussions aimed at developing both technical skills and scientific understanding.
Proposed Hosting Period
The ideal hosting period would be October or November 2026.
Exchange Language
Research can be conducted in both English and Spanish.
Facilities/Resources
The visiting scientist will have access to a shared office space with graduate students, participation in fieldwork activities, and use of geodetic and seismic datasets available through our research projects.
