SG&T Research
Deep Earth Structure and Dynamics
Lamont scientists utilize a variety of observational and computational techniques to image and model the deep interior of the Earth, from crust to core.
Earthquakes and Faulting
SG&T scientists employ a broad spectrum of tools and techniques to develop a better understanding of the mechanics and dynamics of earthquakes and faulting. These techniques include labor
Geodynamics
Geodynamics research in SG&T is focused on understanding the forces that drive deformation and tectonism in the solid Earth, and the role that rock rheology, physical state (solid or partially
Lamont Cooperative Seismographic Network (LCSN)

MARGINS Program Natural Hazards
PI(s):
Arthur L. Lerner-Lam Earthquakes, volcanoes, landslides, floods, drought, cyclones and other natural hazards have significant potential to affect human lives and society.
Ocean Bottom Seismology
Our Ocean Bottom Seismology (OBS) Laboratory develops and operates cutting-edge instrumentation for measuring deformation of the ocean floor in a variety of experimental settings. One of our
