Project members specialize in geologic mapping, landslide hazards analysis, geophysics, terrain modeling and analysis, paleontology, and Geographic Information Systems (GIS).
Through an understanding of the complex geology of the San Francisco Bay region, the Project seeks to assess geologic hazards such as landslides, earthquake-causing fault zones, and soil liquefaction due to ground shaking.
