معرفی
Victor Tsai is a Professor of Earth, Environmental, and Planetary Sciences at Brown University. He specializes in seismology, geomechanics, and theoretical glaciology, with a focus on earthquake mechanics, glacial dynamics, and wave propagation. His research bridges geophysical theory and observation, addressing topics like fault network complexity, subglacial hydrology, and seismic tomography. Tsai holds a PhD from Harvard University (2009) and has been recognized with awards including the NSF CAREER Award (2015) and the Charles F. Richter Award (2014).
- Education: PhD (Harvard, 2009), AM (Harvard, 2006), BS (Caltech, 2004)
- Affiliations: Brown University (since 2019), previously at Caltech (2011–2019)
Research highlights include modeling earthquake source complexity, understanding high-frequency ground motion, and developing new seismic imaging techniques. His work on glacial earthquakes and meltwater pulses has advanced climate-ice interaction studies. Collaborations span seismology, glaciology, and planetary science.
