Research
A few of my recent or current research projects include:
- Monitoring of artificial aquifer recharge using microgravity. Repeated microgravity surveys have been used to help define underground conduits in a karst aquifer in southwestern Oklahoma.
- Analysis of the hundreds of Oklahoma earthquakes recorded in the last ten years to delineate causative structures and investigate possible relationships between oil field activity and microseismicity.
- Investigation of the Ames Meteorite Impact Structure in northern Oklahoma, using gravity and magnetics methods.
- Suominet Geodetic GPS Project.
