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

We are excited to have four new summer interns join us this summer. See details here: https://www.sas.rochester.edu/ees/urseismo/current-members/

Jean-Joel Legre was recently admitted to attend the Nemmers workshop at Northwestern from May 20-24. The conference will gather scientists involved in research on Volcano and Rift Seismicity in Africa

Dr. O, Jean-Joel Legre, and Steve Carr were invited to attend Seismological Workshop on “Passive imaging and monitoring in wave physics: from seismology to ultrasound“ at the Institut d’Etudes Scientifiques de Cargese, France, from June 3-7, 2024.

Sayan is joining the team to assist with different deep learning and data science projects
