Dr. V\u00e1clav Kuna<\/strong> (*1988) works as a postdoctoral researcher at the Institute of Geophysics CAS since September 2020. He received his Ph.D. degree in seismology at Oregon State University in Oregon, USA, studying seismicity and recent tectonics of the Blanco Transform Fault Zone in the northeast Pacific Ocean using seismometers placed at the ocean bottom around the fault.<\/p>\n

During the Ph.D. studies, Vaclav has participated in several large-scale broadband seismic experiments in the Caucasus mountain range and Himalayas and was part of a team monitoring aftershock seismicity after the M7.8 earthquake in Nepal in April 2015. This experience steered his scientific interest away from a purely academic seismological career towards more mission-driven science.<\/p>\n

At the Institute of Geophysics, Vaclav studies novel, low-cost Earthquake Early Warning systems based on IoT (Internet of Things) principle. He wants to test the feasibility of such a system in central Nepal to help to reduce the extreme seismic risks in the region.<\/p>\n
