معرفی
Juan Carlos Afonso serves as an Associate Professor in the Department of Applied Earth Sciences, specializing in geophysical imaging of the Earth's interior through advanced seismic analysis techniques.
His research expertise spans:
- Geophysics and Earth Sciences
- Seismology and Receiver Function Analysis
- Crustal Structure and Moho Retrieval
- Mantle Dynamics and Lithosphere-Asthenosphere Boundary
- Geodynamic Modeling
- Probabilistic Inversion of Multi-observable Data
Current research emphasizes high-resolution imaging of the Dutch crust using waveform fitting techniques to overcome sediment interference, alongside investigations of lithosphere-asthenosphere systems in the North Atlantic and fossil oceanic lithosphere preservation within continental interiors.
No scientific awards were documented in the source material.
Active involvement in collaborative projects like 'Deep, deeper, deepestNL' (DICTUM) indicates research consortium participation and probable student supervision, though specific advisees aren't listed.
He contributes to the Dutch national initiative DICTUM, integrating multiple geophysical observables to image the Netherlands' crust and upper mantle structure.
