Robert P. Sharp Professor of Geology
Seismological Laboratory
Division of Geological and Planetary Sciences
California Institute of Technology
I am a geologist whose principal research interest is the study of earthquakes, although I've dabbled a bit in volcanoes, too. My students and colleagues and I use stratigraphy, geomorphology and geochronology to understand the geometries of earthquake faults, their evolution and their recent history. For example, we have determined how often the San Andreas fault has produced large earthquakes in southern California and how fast it has been slipping over the past many millennia. We have also studied large active faults in China, Taiwan, Turkey, Greece and Sumatra. Current projects are aimed at understanding the repetition of large earthquakes, active faults beneath the Los Angeles region, and the nature of large earthquakes in subduction zones.
