Research Interests

The seismic waves generated by environmental sources such as oceans and humans are often considered noise due to their pseudo-random nature. Nevertheless, information about their source and the Earth’s interior is contained in their auto- and cross-correlation.
My research focuses on using seismic noise interferometry and state-of-the-art tomography techniques to study the subsurface. Specifically, I focus on realistic modeling and inversion of seismic noise auto- and cross-correlations by considering spatial-frequency dependent noise source models and complex 3D-wave propagation.
