  • 1972 - Fellow of American Geophysical Union (AGU)

Overview

E. R. Engdahl is affiliated with the University of Colorado Boulder in the United States. The research primarily revolves around Earth and Planetary Sciences, with additional contributions in Physics and Astronomy. Subfields of interest include Geophysics, Astronomy and Astrophysics, Oceanography, and Artificial Intelligence.

The main topics of Engdahl's work cover a range of geophysical and space science areas:

  • High-pressure geophysics and materials
  • Earthquake and tectonic studies
  • Geological and Geochemical Analysis
  • Ionosphere and magnetosphere dynamics
  • Solar and Space Plasma Dynamics
  • Geophysics and Gravity Measurements
  • Seismology and Earthquake Studies

Recent publications by Engdahl include the following:

  • "ISC-EHB 1964-2016, an Improved Data Set for Studies of Earth Structure and Global Seismicity" (2020) published in Earth and Space Science
  • "Observed and predicted travel times of Pn and P phases recorded at NORSAR from regional events" (2023) published in AGU Fall Meeting Abstracts

Other important works in the research network include a 2022 paper titled "A Global Catalog of Calibrated Earthquake Locations," published in Seismological Research Letters, although authored by Eric Bergman, this work is linked due to related research fields.

Engdahl frequently collaborates with other researchers in the field. Notable co-authors include Domenico Di Giacomo, B. Sakarya, Charikleia Gkarlaouni, James Harris, and Dmitry A. Storchak.

Publications appear across a number of recognized venues such as Earth and Space Science, Seismological Research Letters, and AGU Fall Meeting Abstracts.

Engdahl's professional achievements include election as a Fellow of the American Geophysical Union in 1972.
