I am very interested in participating in t … I am very interested in participating in this Coupling of Tectonic and Surface Processes workshop and learn about numerical techniques. I am a post-doc in the University of Cincinnati that researches active tectonic and neotectonics and surface processes, currently applying geochronology techniques (TCN and OSL), processing my own samples in the Quaternary Geochronology Laboratories in the UC. In this sense, one of the lines of research that I have been following is investigating long term processes, such as long-term fault slip rates, erosion rates for basins or long term crustal deformation such as investigating Pleistocene uplift rates and their relationship with sea-level oscillations and GIA. I have conducted research for my PhD in Portugal (where I am native from) and presently I am conducting research on temporal and spatial variation in fault slip rates across the Cajon Pass area, San Andreas Fault (Banning strand), Eastern California shear zone (Calico and Camp Rock faults), along several faults in the Walker Lane, Pleistocene landscape development across the Eastern Caucasus Mountains, where I investigate a section of an intracontinental mountain belt through the quantification of catchment-wide erosion rates and applying several tools for morphometric analysis. I am extending my previous studies on the regional uplift analysis for SW Portugal through the morph-analysis of a wider area applying TanDEM-X (high precision digital elevation) and also including basin erosion rates. I have learned greatly from my previous experiences participating in workshops while a graduate student and I believe that interacting with other researchers will also benefit my post-doc research and my academic career. Sharing different experiences about different tectonic and climate settings which ultimately condition surface processes at different rates is a great way to find common and news paths of research as well as getting the chance to establish new collaborations.he chance to establish new collaborations.
