I am currently a master candidate in solid geophysics at Institute of Geology and Geophysics, Chinese Academy of Sciences and University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, advised by A/Prof. Wei Wei. I received my B.S. degree from China University of Geosciences (Wuhan) in 2018 advised by Prof. Peimin Zhu.
I am passionate about seismic migration and spatial resolution.
I am a fan of open source, such as GMT, SAC and Madagascar.
MSc candidate in Solid Geophysics, 2018 - present

2018 - present: Resolution analysis of blended acquisition. The conventional evaluation method of imaging resolution is not suitable for blended acquisition because of the aliasing effect between shot records. I developed a method to evaluate the imaging resolution of blended acquisition. It can help us predict the efficiency of the acquisition scheme and design the blended acquisition parameters.
2018 - present: Amplitude-frequency response of vibrator source under different near-surface conditions. The amplitude-frequency response of the coupled near-surface medium and vibrator source varies with the near-surface conditions. I designed a numerical simulation method to guide the application of vibrator source in production.
2017 - 2018: The Android and iOS client design of geomagnetic earthquake warning system. I designed a software to collect three-component geomagnetic data and position information in real time using electronic compasses and GPS chips on smartphones and upload abnormal data to the server. The server determines whether there will be an earthquake and sends location information of the earthquake source to the client after calculation.
