Research Interests:

I am a structural geologist, and my research focuses on active tectonic settings where the interplay between deep and shallow processes can be explored. My main interests can be summarised in:

• Active tectonics
• Fault monitoring
• Earthquake geology
• Tectonic geomorphology (morphotectonics)
• Paleoseismology
