Fresh off his travels presenting at the CIG and Gordon research conferences, our PhD student Jean-Joel Legre has just published his latest paper. In this new work, Jean-Joel tackles a fundamental question: what creates the distinct layers, or “discontinuities,” deep

At the recent EarthScope conference, our very own grad student Swar took the stage to share an exciting advance in seismic signal processing: a fast, sharp algorithm that teases out Love waves buried deep in seismic noise. His method uses

Our student Steve Carr has just published his second paper, and it’s a deep one—literally. Using a novel seismic denoising method called CRISP-RF (Clean Receiver function Imaging with Sparse Radon Filters), Steve reveals new insights into Earth’s interior. His work

Scientists use seismic waves, generated by earthquakes, to peer deep into the Earth’s mantle—the vast layer beneath the crust. One powerful tool for this is the analysis of SS waves, which reflect off structures within the mantle. However, these reflections
