I focus on measuring, analysing and modeling the surface displacement field produced by earthquakes in order to understand the underlying physics. Because geodetic observations alone often struggle to untangle the processes at play during an earthquake, I also use dynamic rupture models to try and find physic-based explanations to the observations. Finally, I am also interested in the processes leading to a sequence of major earthquakes and to the synchronisation of faults.
