Heading to the #CRESCENT meeting at U Washington! Thrilled to share more about our novel analytical approach/tool, pyCoreRelator, for semi-automated stratigraphic correlation & its applications to turbidite seismology research!

𝒑𝒚𝑪𝒐𝒓𝒆𝑹𝒆𝒍𝒂𝒕𝒐𝒓 is designed to search out ALL plausible correlation solutions between core pairs, honoring known stratigraphic constraints (e.g., age, marker bed). It uses the Dynamic Time Warping algorithm to auto-align data and calculate signal similarity metrics.

Next week at the #GSA2025, I'll be presenting my newly developed Python tool, 𝒑𝒚𝑪𝒐𝒓𝒆𝑹𝒆𝒍𝒂𝒕𝒐𝒓. We apply it to quantitatively re-examine the correlatability of Cascadia deep-water turbidites, previously interpreted as synchronous deposits of paleo-earthquakes.

It was really fun to present in the SoftRock seminar at the @txgeosciences.bsky.social today, talking about early outcomes of this collaborative project with Prof. @xding.bsky.social. We are looking forward to sharing more in the GSA meeting in San Antonio, TX!

Introducing pyTopoComplexity:
A Python package for multiscale topographic complexity analysis. It talks to Landlab, leveraging landscape evolution modeling to study how surface complexity/roughness evolves in response to various processes. Install via pip or conda 🧵1/3

Just done an #AGU23 short talk on the #OpenScience session, representing @geomorphica.bsky.social Dimond Open Access Journal team. We welcome more submissions, signing up reviewer database, and getting involved! 🥳

If you are attending AGU, welcome to chat with me about my recent works (poster EP23D-1963) & come to the short talk (INV51D-09) that I will represent the team of @geomorphica.bsky.social, sharing the recent progress about the new DOAJ for geomorphology!
