My research aims mainly at understanding better the relationship
between crustal deformation, earthquakes, and landscape evolution.
I am interested in developing new approaches combined from
field observations, satellite imagery, and physically based models.
I am particularly interested in orogenic context and am currently
involved in research programs in the Himalaya, Taiwan, Tien Shan,
and Sumatra.
