Through this study we investigate the seismic response of Briones Dam in California by analyzing both earthquake ground motion records and ambient vibration data. We aimed to understand how the dam’s embankment behaves during seismic loading and whether ambient noise methods can reliably characterize its dynamic properties. Using a combination of HVSR analysis, empirical transfer … Read More

Years of working with earthquake ground motion datasets exposed recurring challenges such as inconsistencies in metadata and inefficient data querying, amongst others, all of which hindered the flow of scientific analysis. We embarked on an effort to address these challenges and what began as a small collaboration among postdocs and graduate students grew into a … Read More
