Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJared Peacock is a research geophysicist with 13 years of experience applying electromagnetic methods to characterize subsurface fluids for geothermal and volcanic systems. He earned a PhD using 4D magnetotellurics to monitor enhanced geothermal reservoirs and has led large-scale field campaigns—designing and deploying dense MT arrays to produce 3D resistivity models of hydrothermal systems. Based at the USGS in Menlo Park, he blends hands-on fieldwork, signal processing, inversion modeling, and open-source software development, including contributions to the magnetotellurics package MTPy. Jared is driven by making geophysics accessible to accelerate geothermal deployment and often focuses on reducing subsurface uncertainties that hinder clean-energy projects. An underappreciated strength is his cross-scale fluency—from lab studies of high-frequency water properties during his MS to continental-scale imaging in postdoc work—allowing him to connect fundamental physics to practical energy solutions.
