Timo Tiira is a Researcher at the Institute of Seismology, University of Helsinki, and Supervisor for the Doctoral Programme in Geosciences. His work focuses on seismology and geophysics, particularly seismic event discrimination using Finnish station networks.
- PhD in Geophysics (Discrimination of seismic events using Finnish station network)
- MSc in Physics (Seismisten signaalien havaitseminen Hutt&Murdock-detektorin ja digitaalisen suodatuksen avulla)
Research Interests: Seismology and geophysics with emphasis on seismic event discrimination, crustal structure analysis, ambient noise tomography, and seismic hazard assessment for critical infrastructure like nuclear power plants.
Key Contributions: Leadership in establishing the Finnish Seismic Instrument Pool (FINNSIP), development of 3D shear wave velocity models for Helsinki, and automated seismic event classification systems. Collaborative work spans Finland, Russia, and Ukraine with 103+ activities and 187+ research outputs.
Scientific Awards:
- Recipient of Best GFF Articles award (2014)
Projects: Active in SCARCE: Scandinavian Arctic Continental Experiment (2023–2028) and Monitoring the monitoring (2020–2025). Key roles in seismic networks for geothermal and nuclear facility monitoring.
