Biography, Education and Training

Emily Brodsky is a professor of Earth and planetary sciences at the University of California, Santa Cruz. As an earthquake physicist, she studies the mechanics underlying earthquakes, addressing questions about the processes that trigger earthquakes and the constraining forces and processes that occur inside a fault zone during slip. These studies require expertise in a variety of geoscience disciplines, including seismology, hydrogeology, structural geology, and rock mechanics. After the devas... more »
