Seismology professor Brian Stump, Ph.D., is an expert in seismic wave propagation and is known for his research with a team of colleagues into earthquakes that jostled North Texasand the DFW area since 2008. His research includes earthquake source theory and explosions (including mining explosions) as a source of seismic waves.
SMU seismologist Brian Stump has been named an American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) Fellow for distinguished contributions to his field, particularly in the area of seismic monitoring. AAAS is the world’s largest general scientific society and publisher of the journal Science.
Stump joined SMU in 1983 from the Seismology Section of the Air Force Weapons Laboratory at Kirtland Air Force Base in New Mexico. He graduated summa cum laude from Linfield College in McMinnville, Ore. with a BA in physics in 1974. He then received a MA in 1975 and a Ph.D. in geophysics in 1979, both from the University of California at Berkeley, after completing a thesis titled Investigation of Seismic Sources by the Linear Inversion of Seismograms.
