Biography

Matthew Fouch uses seismology and geophysics to examine the interior of the earth from crust to core through techniques that combine both data analysis and numerical methods. A primary tool for these investigations is the broadband seismometer array. These arrays enable seismologists to learn about Earth structure and decipher the processes affecting the planet.

Education

  • PhD, Brown University, 1999
