Scientific career
ThesisInvestigations of crustal structure and active tectonic processes in the Coast Ranges, Central California (1989)

Education and career

Eberhart-Phillips earned her Ph.D. in 1989 from Stanford University where she worked on the tectonic processes in California.[1] As of 2021, Eberhart-Phillips has joint appointments at the University of California, Davies[2] and GNS Science in Dunedin, New Zealand.[3]

In 2018, Eberhart-Phillips was named a fellow of the American Geophysical Union who cited her "for fundamental contributions to the seismotectonic analysis of subduction zones and fault zones and innovations in seismic tomography."[4]

Research

Eberhart-Phillips uses seismic data to examine earthquakes in subduction zones in New Zealand,[5] Alaska where she worked on the 2002 Denali earthquake,[6] and California where she worked on the 1992 Landers earthquake.[7][8] In California, Eberhart-Phillips works on changes in the seismic waves from earthquakes from the Hayward Fault Zone as they move through the delta where the Sacramento and San Joaquin reach the sea.[9]
