Bio/Research

Kim's research interests focus on regional seismology—a broad field where one typically analyzes seismic signals recorded at a few tens of kilometers to a couple thousand kilometers to infer geologic structure of the Earth's upper layers, including the crust, to quantify the seismic sources and their implications on regional tectonics, and to characterize the nature of the seismic sources. In recent years, Kim has studied mechanism of earthquakes in Korea.
