About

My name is Elodie Lebas and I’m a postdoc working at Geomar (Kiel, Germany) in the Marine Geodynamic group.

To introduce myself quickly: I’m living in Germany since one year now and I’m working on the processing and interpretation of OBS (Ocean Bottom Seismometer) and 3D seismic data, and my main field area deals with gas hydrates. You may say “What are OBS or 3D seismic data, or either gas hydrates?” and “Why do you study this particular field?” I would simply reply that you’ve found the right website!

Indeed, through this blog I would like to show you what I’m doing as a postdoc student and explain to you what are OBS and 3D data and how we collect them on ships. But I would also like to give you a glance of what it is to be a scientist especially when we’re at sea (since I’ll participate next week to a cruise offshore Taiwan) and take the opportunity of having a conference right before (GIMS12th conference in Taipei) to explain to you how scientists present their work to the community (i.e. other researchers).

So, if you’re interested in all of this just follow me!

And don’t hesitate to ask me questions or post comments, I will be glad to answer them
