Degassing explosion from Fuego volcano, Guatemala in January 2008. Our research group (notice people on ridge) from Michigan Tech deployed seismo-acoustic stations to record this activity. See video of these explosions here: Fuego explosion video |

I am a PhD student studying active volcanism. My current research is focused on ground-and satellite-based remote sensing of volcanoes in order to understand eruptive behavior. Understanding characteristic signals produced by volcanoes during different periods of eruptive behavior can allow scientists to identify potentially hazardous deviations from normal activity.
My main interests are in volcano seismology and infrasound at active volcanoes and relating these signals to observed eruptive activity. I am also interested in comparing these data to gas and thermal emission through FTIR, FLIR, DOAS and other remote sensing techniques. My other interests include: conduit dynamics and models for the production of explosive, basaltic eruptions in arc settings, petrology and geochemistry, and natural hazards. |
