Kinematic Modeling of Subduction Zones
The University of Texas Institute for Geophysics conducts 2D and 3D kinematic modeling of complex geologic systems using leading industry software. Subduction zones are settings where two plates converge, causing one to subduct beneath the other as it passes into the mantle. The collision process generates the world’s largest and most destructive earthquakes and tsunamis… Continue Reading Kinematic Modeling of Subduction Zones
PhD Research: Fault System Dynamics and Earthquake Hazards
We have ongoing opportunities for Ph.D. students to work on subduction zone seafloor geodesy and megathrust processes at the University of Texas Institute for Geophysics (UTIG). The doctoral program is based at the Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences in the Jackson School of Geosciences, ranked one of the best geophysics graduate programs in the US. About… Continue Reading PhD Research: Fault System Dynamics and Earthquake Hazards
