The aim of my research is to gain a better understanding of lithospheric structure of the Earth and to extract important constraints on the subsurface geology. I am investigating lithospheric structure throughout the Middle East, Europe, and North Africa using receiver functions and surface-wave dispersion. I am working on 166 stations across my research area; 72 stations in Middle East, 57 stations in Europe, 37 stations in central and north Africa. The diversity of the study area makes these data ideal for innovations of the seismic imaging methods. This work opens a door to new approaches to seismic imaging. |
