Keith Koper, Editor-in-Chief
tsreditor@seismosoc.org

Koper has served as associate professor and professor in the department of geology and geophysics at the University of Utah (United States), and director of the University of Utah Seismograph Stations (UUSS), since 2010. He has been a member of the U.S. Air Force Seismic Review Panel since 2011 and is now chair of the Utah Seismic Safety Commission since serving on the Commission since 2010. He was an associate editor for the Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America from 2003 to 2010 and co-chair of the organizing committee for the 2013 SSA Annual Meeting. Koper worked in 2017 on the SSA subcommittee to update a joint statement by SSA and the American Geophysical Union on the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty, and has served as member and chair of SSA’s Charles F. Richter Early Career Award subcommittee from 2018 to the present.

His research interests and publications focus on array seismology, Earth’s ambient seismic noise field, forensic seismology and exotic sources, rupture imaging of giant earthquakes, seismicity and tectonics of the intermountain West, mining induced earthquakes, and the structure and dynamics of Earth’s deep interior, especially the core.

Vera Schulte-Pelkum, Deputy Editor-in-Chief
tsrdeputyeditor@seismosoc.org

Schulte-Pelkum is an associate research professor in the department of geological sciences at the University of Colorado, Boulder (United States) and a research scientist at the Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences (CIRES). Her research interests include structure, deformation, rheology and anisotropy of the lithosphere and mantle; receiver functions and array processing; the seismic noise wavefield; and seismic and volcanic hazards. She received her Ph.D. in geosciences from Scripps Institution of Oceanography, University of California, San Diego in 2001.

In her role as TSR Deputy Editor-in-Chief, Schulte-Pelkum works with the Editor-in-Chief on all aspects of the journal editorial process and serves as member of the journal’s leadership team.

Jeroen Ritsema, Editor-at-Large
tsr_eal@seismosoc.org

Ritsema is a University of Michigan (United States) professor of geophysics and seismology. His research involves the imaging of Earth’s mantle through global scale seismic tomography and the modeling of broadband seismograms. He received his Ph.D. in geophysics from the University of California, Santa Cruz in 1995.

As TSR Editor-at-Large, he works closely with the Editor-in-Chief to recruit relevant, high-impact research for submission to the journal, serving in an ambassador role representing the journal globally within the seismology and earthquake science community.

Associate Editors

Jonathan Ajo-Franklin
Ajo-Franklin is a professor at Rice University (Texas, United States) in the department of earth, environmental and planetary science as well as a faculty scientist at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL). He received his B.A. in computer science and history from Rice University in 1998 followed by a Ph.D. in geophysics from Stanford University in 2005. His research interests include active and passive seismic monitoring of subsurface processes such as geothermal energy production, geologic carbon storage, and near-surface hydrogeologic cycles. He also studies new seismic acquisition techniques including distributed acoustic sensing and permanent active sources.

Keywords: applied geophysics, near-surface seismic imaging, distributed acoustic sensing, geothermal monitoring, seismic ambient noise

Pascal Audet
Audet is a seismologist at the University of Ottawa, Canada. He received a Ph.D. in geophysics from the University of British Columbia in 2008. He then worked as a Miller Research Fellow at the University of California at Berkeley from 2008 to 2011, after which he joined the University of Ottawa as an assistant professor (2011-2016) and has been an associate professor since 2016. His research interests include subduction zone structure, seismic imaging, data science, broadband ocean-bottom seismology and open-source software development.

Keywords: subduction zone structure, seismic imaging, data science, broadband ocean-bottom seismology and open-source software development

Brendan Crowell
Crowell is a research scientist with the Pacific Northwest Seismic Network at the University of Washington (United States). He received his Ph.D. from Scripps Institution of Oceanography and his B.S. and M.S. from Georgia Institute of Technology. His research interests are in high-rate GNSS, seismogeodesy, tectonic geodesy, and early warning systems.

Keywords: high-rate GNSS, seismogeodesy, tectonic geodesy, and early warning systems

Steven J. Gibbons
Gibbons is an applied geophysicist at the Norwegian Geotechnical Institute in Oslo, Norway. He received a Ph.D. from the School of Earth Sciences and School of Computer Studies at Leeds University in 1998 on computational fluid dynamics and processes in the deep earth. He worked for 17 years in verification seismology, focusing on seismic signal detection and interpretation for nuclear explosion monitoring. He now works in natural hazards at NGI applying high performance computing to geohazards, including earthquakes, tsunamis, and landslides. His research interests include signal processing and array processing, natural and anthropogenic seismicity, acoustics and infrasound, inverse theory, natural hazards and risk assessment, pattern recognition and machine learning.
