Research Interests:

Ann’s dissertation research objectives:

1) Attempt to differentiate between earthquake-triggered deposits from those resulting from other types of disturbances such extreme floods and post-fire erosion using the sedimentary records of small lakes in the Pacific Northwest.

2) Determine the mechanisms that control deposit characteristics, to ultimately  . . .

3) Estimate minimum intensity and spatial pattern of strong ground motions resulting from a great earthquake, and

4) Reconstruct the earthquake history at these locations.
