HE Lipeng

Dr. HE Lipeng is a Research Associate Professor at the Department of Ocean Science and Engineering of the Southern University of Science and Technology. He holds a Ph.D. in Structural Geology from the Guangzhou Institute of Geochemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences (2019) and completed postdoctoral research at the same institution (2019-2022). His work focuses on fine-scale crustal structure, induced earthquakes, and microseismic detection through seismic and geodynamic modeling.

Research interests include seismic imaging of crustal structures, induced seismicity mechanisms, and tectonic evolution in East Asia. His publications highlight applications of ambient noise tomography, joint inversion techniques, and studies of magma chambers and lithospheric dynamics.

Recent publications (sorted by year) reveal a focus on fault zones (e.g., Prague, Oklahoma; Xinfengjiang reservoir), lithospheric modification (e.g., Jiuyishan, South China), and volcanic systems (e.g., Datong volcanoes). These works employ seismic tomography, geodynamic modeling, and multi-method data inversion to address crustal deformation and seismic hazards.

He leads the NSFC-funded project Determining Lithosphere and Upper Mantle deformation and Melting beneath East Asia: An Integrated Seismic/Geodynamic Model Approach (2021-2024), which aligns with his expertise in seismic structure analysis and lithospheric dynamics.
