Dr Jon Carey

School of Geography, Earth and Environmental Sciences
Associate Professor in Applied Geoscience

Jon studies landslide failure mechanisms and fault behaviour in response to elevated pore fluid pressures and earthquake shaking. His research combines specialist laboratory testing with field monitoring and remote sensing to better understand slope failure and fault movement processes in both terrestrial and marine environments.
