Biography:
My research focuses on developing new insights into the mechanical behaviour of active faults, and how fault behaviour is manifest in geological processes such as orogeny. I use observational techniques ranging from geomorphology, space-borne satellite geodesy (InSAR, GPS), seismology, potential field analysis, paleoseismic trenching, numerical modelling and structural geology.
