My work supports the National Nuclear Administration's mission of Defense Nuclear Nonproliferation (DNN).  Currently, I primarily work under the Source Physics Experiment Phase III: Rock Valley Direct Comparison, which will investigate signal discrimination features between earthquakes and underground explosions at the NNSS.  This will be done by detonating conventional explosives in a borehole at a depth and location consistent with the hypocenter of the 1993 Rock Valley earthquake sequence (M 3.8).  Additionally, I am working toward integrating high-rate groundwater pressure data as a new sensing capability for DNN, supported by the Site-Directed Research and Development program at the NNSS.
