معرفی
Dr. Jaleena Sunny is a Research Fellow at the Swiss Seismological Service (SED) based at ETH Zürich. Her work focuses on advancing ground motion prediction methodologies, induced seismicity analysis, and uncertainty quantification in seismic hazard assessment. She specializes in developing stochastic models for earthquake ground motion and validating their performance through novel metrics.
Her research interests include seismology, earthquake engineering, and regional seismic risk analysis with applications to both natural and induced seismic events. Dr. Sunny's recent work emphasizes improving ground motion prediction equations for unconventional seismic sources like hydraulic fracturing-induced tremors and optimizing computational algorithms for model validation.
Her publications (2018-2025) demonstrate contributions to stochastic ground motion modeling, induced seismicity characterization, and the development of metrics for comparing seismic models. Notable projects include extending the ERM-CH23 model for Swiss shallow induced seismicity and creating soil amplification maps for spectral acceleration periods.
