Wissenschaftliche Interessen:

Analysis of seismic signals of (local) earthquakes and controlled sources as well as of ambient seismic noise in order to illuminate the subsurface and to study processes at active plate boundaries such as subduction zones, orogenes and continental shear zones. Among the methods I use are local earthquake tomography, analysis of seismic attenuation, and reflection/refraction seismic methods (e.g. tomography). Much of my work is focused on South America, Central Asia, the European Alps and the Middle East. Furthermore, I am interested in technical aspects of field experiments/data acquisition and seismic instrumentation.
