 | Dr. Yang's primary research interest is to understand the exchanges of momentum, radiation, heat, water, carbon dioxide, and other materials between the atmosphere and the Earth surface spanning from small (short) to very large (long) scales. This includes analysis of in-situ and remotely-sensed data for the Earth's surface, and modeling ...

 | Chen is interested in computational methods that can be broadly applied to seismic signal analysis, seismic modeling and imaging, and earthquake monitoring. In the past ten years, his team's research has focused on applying artificial intelligence (AI) techniques to various geoscience problems. One particularly intriguing problem is to detect earthquakes ...
