BACKGROUND
- B.S. Physics & Chemistry, 1972, Portland State University
- M.S. Applied Geophysics, 1982, Columbia University
- Ph.D. Applied Geophysics, 1984, Columbia University
RESEARCH INTERESTS & PROJECTS
I am interested in forward modeling and seismic imaging methods, with applications to exploration, engineering and earthquake seismology. I have developed an engineering and environmental research program with the use of our GPR and 168-channel seismic instrumentation. Supercomputing is achieved by with our 43 processor cluster of 450 MHZ Pentium II and III computers.
