Self Introduction

Hello, Everybody. My name is Chien-Ping Lee. I am a seismologist from Taiwan. My research interests include studies of subsurface structures from results of earthquake location and focal mechanism, the spatial and temporal variations of seismic data before and after large earthquakes, and analysis of nonlinear site effect from downhole accelerometer array data. It is my pleasure to visit Earthquake Research Institute, University of Tokyo for 6 months. During the stay, I work with Prof. Naoshi Hirata to study seismic attenuation under eastern Central Mountain Range in Taiwan. In order to find out the possible causes of the aseismic zone under eastern Central Mountain Range a dataset of linear array across south Taiwan is used. I also would like to learn from others at ERI. It is a good opportunity for me to work and cooperate with researchers at ERI during this period.
