About Zoe

I have been at the ²ÝùÊÓÆµ since 2018 as an academic member of staff teaching on the geology programmes. My research is focussed on understanding tectonics, active faulting and earthquakes, particularly focussing on earthquake dynamics and interaction.

Since February 2021, I am UKRI Future Leaders Fellow and my project is "Quake4D - building physics-based, geologically-rich models for investigating earthquake interaction and seismic hazard", which will run for the next 4 years. This project will combine high-quality geological data with start-of-the-art computer simulations to generate a new approach to simulating synthetic earthquakes and quantifying seismic hazard.

Supervised Research Degrees

I currently supervise one PhD student:

Manuel Diercks (primary supervisor): Fault interaction and seismic hazard in Western TurkeyÂ
