Ep. 22 - Emily, Kate, Ellen, Ahmed (plus Raquel, Edwin, and Ben)

On this episode, we hear interviews with earthquake scientists of many varieties at the 2018 Southern California Earthquake Center Meeting in Palm Springs, CA. I talk to Emily Brodsky, Seismologist at UC Santa Cruz, Kate Scharer of the US Geological Survey, Ellen Yu of the Southern California Earthquake Data Center, and Ahmed Elbanna, a Civil Engineer at U. of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. I'm joined in the studio by UMass PhD students Raquel Bryant and Edwin Murenzi, and Edwin's friend Ben Aalvik (founder of Fully Rooted juice company) to chat about the interviews and discuss any questions that come up as we listen. We learn about taking the temperature of a fault, trenching into fossil earthquakes, what is done with all the data collected by seismometers, and how engineers and geologists can help each other. Part 1 of a 2 part special episode!
