Summary: | This presentation traces a journey that begins as a PhD student at UNSW working on a mixed-mode GPS-based volcano deformation monitoring system and continues as “Dr GPS” along a Sydney motorway before heading “down down under” as a lecturer at the University of Tasmania. The journey ventures even further south in order to carry out GPS fieldwork in Antarctica and to investigate strain in the vicinity of an active rift system on the Amery Ice Shelf using GPS observations. A few side trips to Hong Kong and the Philippines are also undertaken in order to enable navigating as a pair. |
