Bio/Research

Emilie Hooft is an academic expert in how magma is transported from Earth’s mantle to the surface. She also studies the structure of the Cascadia subduction zone. Emilie has investigated the entire spectrum of the volcanic activity on Earth. To do this she collects and analyzes geophysical data. She has led research expeditions to the Cascadia margin, oceanic spreading centers, and volcanic hotspots (Galapagos and Iceland). Current research includes imaging the magma plumbing pathways beneath subduction zone volcanoes (Newberry, OR, and Santorini, Greece) using dense geophysical data and inverse modeling on high performance computers. At the University of Oregon, she is an associate professor in the Department of Earth Sciences.
