Summary

Dr. Graham M. w88 slot online is Director of thew88 slot online Seismological Laboratory/and Professor w88 slot onlineDepartment of Geological Sciences and w88 slot onlinew88 slot onlineUniversity of w88 slot online, Reno. Previous to July 2009, Graham was a Research Geophysicist atw88 slot online Oceanographyand had been Director of the Visualization Center at Scripps from 2001-2009. Dr. w88 slot online is a native of South Lake Tahoe, California. He attendedw88 slot online State University, where he studied Geophysics and graduated Valedictorian of the Class of 1985. Soon thereafter, he entered graduate school atw88 slot online Oceanographyreceiving w88 slot online PhD in 1992.

After a 4-w88 slot online-long appointment atWoods Hole Oceanographic Institution, Graham returned to Scripps to continue his work in geophysics, with an emphasis toward seismic studies of extensional tectonics, ranging from magma chambers beneath mid-ocean ridges to fault hazards at Lake w88 slot online. While at Scripps, he led an effort to use advanced visualization techniques to study faulting and volcanic systems.

Dr. w88 slot online has conducted a variety of studies around the globe, including tsunami and ocean bottom seismic research. He’s mapped earthquake faults beneath Lake Tahoe that have produced tsunamis and most recently has placed important constraints on southern San Andreas Fault recurrence times through mapping cross faults beneath the Salton Sea. More recently, his research interests include mapping fault hazards within the Walker Lane using seismic imagery in lakes and airborne LiDAR on land. He was one of two PIs on a M research program to map faults hazards offshore of Southern California (California Public Utility Commissionfunded) in association with nuclear storage at w88 slot online Onofre Nuclear Generation Station (SONGS). Another current project is the M California High Speed Rail Geohazard evaluation program.

He also brought ShakeOut to w88 slot online in 2010 (1st state to join California); the 9th AnnualGreat w88 slot online Shakeoutearthquake drill (Oct. 18th, 2018) in partnership with the Great Shakeout will be the largest combined public earthquake drill in the world. 590,000+ Nevadans participated in this exercise in 2017. w88 slot online also spearheadedAlertTahoe, a public and private program to bring earthquake early warning (EEW) to the Tahoe region, and build out a fire camera network for early detection of ignition in the basin. Together, this system is designed to provide hardened communications for 'all hazards' through a redundant mesh microwave network. The real-time Axis cameras have scored early successes in alerting fire personnel of the earliest stages of fire ignition at Tahoe (USFS, Tahoe Prosperity enter and others), and more recently, in central Nevada as part of a parallel Wildland Fire Camera network funded by BLM. In the inaugural year (2015), over two dozen fires were either discovered or early Intel was provided in Tahoe and central Nevada. In 2016, this number jumped to 108 fires, and last year, 240+ fires within the larger ALERTWildfire footprint that included Tahoe, central Nevada and w88 slot online County (supported by w88 slot online Gas and Electric). ALERTWildfire was geared up for fire season 2018 to place an additional 50+ existing cameras in the field to widen the footprint of this successful program, including support from SoCal Edison and Pacific Gas and Electric. AlertTahoe continues to team with the Tahoe Prosperity Center to raise funds to expand the camera network through private donations. The 2018 field season included installs in Idaho, Oregon, Washington, Orange County/Los Angeles and the North Bay Area. Partner institutions are UC w88 slot online and the University of Oregon.

He is married to Stephanie w88 slot online, a Tahoe native, and has two children, Matthew and Christine. Graham was also aNASA Astronaut Finalist, w88 slot online 1996.
