Research
My research interest includes:1) Upper-mantle velocity structures using seismic wave triplications, 2) Detection and yield estimation of nuclear test, 3) Earthquake focal mechanisms and source information using regional and teleseismic waveforms, and 4) Crustal structure beneath Yellowstone. I am currentlyam working with Prof. Don Helmberger on the upper-mantle structure beneath the western United States.
