current position:
Head of Geophysics section at the department of Earth and Environmental Sciences of Ludwig-Maximilians University, Munich (LMU)
field of work:
Research interests lie in the application of high-performance computing (based on message-passing parallel programming and off-the-shelf networked compute-clusters) to problems of Earth and planetary evolution, including core, mantle and crustal dynamics. Recently, he developed novel fluid dynamics inverse theory based on an adjoint approach for solid Earth studies in order to reconstruct Earth's evolution explicity back into the past.
biography:
Prior to his Munich appointment he served on the Princeton faculty for five years following a European Union postdoctoral year at the Institute de Physique du Globe in Paris. He completed his Berkeley PhD in 1996, the majority of which he spent at the Los Alamos National Laboratory, where his graduate work was supported by the Institute of Geophysics and Planetary Physics (IGPP) and the Advanced Computing Laboratory (ACL).
