Jiun-ting "Tim" LinPh.D. Student (Co-advised with Amanda Thomas)B.S Earth Sciences, National Central University, Taiwan
M.Sc. Geophysics, National Central University, Taiwan Tim is working on machine learning and high-rate GNSS displacement data. He is building an algorithm that uses complex crustal deformation patterns to rapidly characterize earthquakes and their hazards. He has also worked on source models of large earthquakes from joint inversion of many geophysical data.

Sydney DybingPh.D. StudentB.S Geophysics, Washington University in Saint Louis
Sydney is working on using borehole strainmeters to observe the nascent stages of earthquake rupture. Ultimately the goal is to evaluate whether there is any determinism to rupture and develop methods of speeding up earthquake early warning system

David SmallPh.D. Student (co-advised with Doug Toomey)B.S Geophysics, University of California Santa Cruz
David is researching how geodetic coupling models can inform forecasts of large earthquake ruptures. His research focuses on how different models of locking at the Cascadia subduction zone inform what the next big earthquake (and its hazards) will look like

Yu-Sheng SunPh.D. Student (co-advised with Amanda Thomas)B.S Geophysics, National Central University, Taiwan
M.S.Geophysics, National Central University, Taiwan Yu-Sheng is working on how to produce tsunami inundation models using real-time GNSS data and rapid earthquake source products. He is also researching machine learning techniques for extracting small events from cotinuous waveform data in Cascadia.

Miriam Lizzeth VazquezUndergraduate IRIS intern (2019)Lizzeth was an undergraduate intern who visited for 10 weeks from the Universidad del Mar in Oaxaca Mexico to do research as part of the IRIS internship program. Lizzeth studied the great 1787 M8.6 San Sixto earthquake in south central Mexico. This is the largest known earthquake on the Mexican subduction zone. Lizzeth generated over 500 hypothetical kinematic rupture models and modeled the ensuing tsunamis to understand the potential impacts of such a large event
