Summary
Jaime Convers is a postdoctoral seismologist with 11 years of research experience combining fieldwork and computational expertise across Brazil, the Iberian Peninsula, and the U.S. His work centers on induced seismicity and moment tensor inversions, using multi-method toolchains (KIWI, PyTDMT, SCISOLA) and real-time station quality control to deliver robust focal mechanism solutions. Jaime’s Ph.D. research on radiated seismic energy and energy-deficient (tsunamigenic) ruptures informed real-time tools later adopted as an IRIS data product and linked to earthquake early warning. Comfortable in multiple programming languages and seismic analysis packages, he also develops seismic data products and implements EEW methodologies for operational centers. Equally at home mapping structures in the field or scaling inversion workflows, he brings a practical, data-driven approach to seismic hazard questions in intraplate basins like Paraná.
