IGPP research on moonquakes featured in New York Times Science article
IGPP researchers Catherine Johnson and Peter Shearer and graduate student Renee Bulow had
a commentary on their research findings published in The New York Times this week.
The study focused on the deep moonquakes in the Apollo lunar seismic dataset collected in the 1970's. The reanalysis of
this dataset allowed Bulow, Johnson and Shearer to discern many new seismic
events and also create an improved dataset for investigating the temporal occurrence
of deep moonquakes. Renee Bulow won the best student paper award
in the planetary sciences section at the Fall 2004 AGU meeting in San Francisco for this work.
