We have published a new model of 1D structure of the outer core, parameterized using two different equations of state: Irving_Cottaar_Lekic_2018 Brief highlights: We infer the seismic properties and equation of state of the outer core using Earth’s oscillations We address a longstanding discrepancy between high and low frequency investigations of the outer core Our work …
We wish Prof. Olugboji the very best of luck as he starts his new position of Assistant Professor at the University of Rochester.

We congratulate Dr. Tolu Olugboji for being selected a Fellow of the Next Einstein Forum, which recognises Africa’s best young scientists and technologists. In March, Tolu presented his research in Kilagi, Rwanda. Check out the photos from the ceremony, below.
Graduate students at the University of Maryland Seismology Lab sprung into action following the M4.1 earthquake that struck Dover, Delaware on November 30, 2017. The very next day, they were out in the field, deploying seismometers that would be recording aftershocks for the next 6 weeks. Thank you Erin, Chao, Phillip, Karen, Pete, and Quancheng …
