Research Interest
I am a seismologist with experience in both earthquake source physics, and seismic tomography and imaging using the seismic ambient noise. My research is based on analysis of seismic data to understand the earthquake sources and the structure of the Earth. I am mainly interested in fault rheology and deformation style (Fig. 1), rupture nucleation (Fig. 2), induced microseismicity, rupture mechanism of deep and intermediate depth earthquakes (Fig. 3), ambient noise for body wave recovery, imaging the core mantle boundary and mantle transition zone, seismic signal sonification, scattering and wave propagation. To learn more about my research, you can read the EOS Spotlight on deep earthquakes or listen to the science podcast about using seismic noise to image the mantle transition zone. 
Fig. 2: Time evolution of precursory signals for the Nuugaatsiaq landslide. A) Cumulative number of event as function of time. B) The 95 detected events ranged as function of time. The stack of these signals gives the reference trace (C) in which clear P and S waves are observed. The amplitude time evolution (D) is in clear agrees with the exponential increment of events seen in (A). From Poli (2017).
