I am Qing Ji, a Postdoctoral Fellow at Bureau of Economic Geology, Jackson School of Geosciences , The University of Texas at Austin. I received a Doctoral degree in Geophysics from Stanford University in 2026 and a Bachelor’s degree in Geophysics from Peking University in 2020. My current research is focused on Environmental Seismology, leveraging Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) data to monitor aquifers and coastal oceanography. I aim at contributing to an inter-disciplinary workflow to integrate observations with physics modeling, and to better connect seismic signatures to various evolving environmental processes.
My previous works include: Turbulent seismoacoustic imprints during hurricane landfall events; DAS technique for urban subsurface imaging using surface Rayleigh and Love waves; Global seismic waveform modeling in 3-D Earth’s model to study the influence of mantle heterogeneity on outermost outer core seismic phases.
