Postdoctoral Associate
Earth Atmospheric and Planetary Sciences
Education: PhD, Geophysics, Peking U., 2021
BA, Geophysics, U. of Science and Technology in China, 2016
Bio: Dr. Wu is a postdoctoral associate in the Department of Earth, Atmospheric, and Planetary Sciences working with Dr. Aimé Fournier and Dr. Laurent Demanet. Her research focuses on uncertainty quantification in geophysical inverse problems, machine learning, and geo-electromagnetic methods.
She obtained her PhD in Geophysics in 2021 from Peking University (PKU), China, under the supervision of Prof. Qinghua Huang, and continued at PKU as a postdoctoral researcher , where she worked on deep learning-based processing, simulation, inversion and uncertainty quantification for geo-electromagnetic data.
From 2023 to 2024, she was a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Houston, where she collaborated with Dr. Jiajia Sun and Dr. Jiefu Chen and focused on uncertainty quantification in geophysical inversion, natural hydrogen exploration, and the study of oceanic plateaus using marine magnetic data.
She obtained her BS in Geophysics in 2016 from the Special Class for the Gifted Young at the University of Science and Technology in China (USTC), China.
Her research interests include:
Uncertainty quantification of geophysical inverse problems
Machine learning in Earth science
Geothermal, critical mineral and natural hydrogen exploration
Near-surface hydrological investigation
