Background

About Christine Downs

I am an early-career scientist with expertise in applied near-surface geophysics and programming. I have a strong quantitative background and 8+ years of experience in computer modeling, data processing, analysis, and visualizations, and software development. Comfortable with wave propagation theory, simulations, and signal processing (i.e. Fourier Transform, Band Filtering, Spectral Analysis, Deconvolution). Extensive experience working with real, measured data with varying degrees of noise. Quick to learn new software or code and apply it to a project's needs.Extensive field experience with multiple geophysical techniques: electric resistivity, electromagnetic induction, ground-penetrating radar, active seismic, magnetics, gravity, self-potential. Proficient in field data acquisition, data processing, and interpretation. Strong computation and programming skills with proficiency in data modeling and inversion. Skilled in producing and delivering high-quality presentations to a wide audience.
