Biography
Carl Tape is a seismologist at the University of Alaska Fairbanks. He applies techniques in computational and observational seismology to obtain better images of Earth's internal structure and to obtain better representations of earthquakes. Within his research he uses three-dimensional numerical simulations to model the seismic wavefield and to calculate volumetric sensitivities for the seismic imaging problem. He is interested in seismic moment tensors and their uncertainties, and he has led two deployments of seismometers is remote regions of Alaska.
