- Biography
Dr. Hannah Riegel is a Visiting Lecturer in the Department of Geosciences at Georgia State University. Her current research looks at fluid source and flow in low angle normal faults and their impact on earthquake-triggering slip. This is done using a combination of geochemistry, structural geology, and MATLAB modeling. Other research includes developing a virtual reality tool for learning strike and dip with collaborators at Montana University and Pennsylvania State University.
Before joining Georgia State, Dr. Riegel was a Visiting Assistant Professor and Field Camp Director at Appalachian State University.
