Dr. Wannamaker's primary research responsibilities have been with the development of 2-D and 3-D forward and inverse modeling algorithms, interpretation of MT data from volcanic, geothermal, overthrust and deep orogenic environments, and developing a new generation remote-reference magnetotelluric (MT) data acquisition system,. Dr. Wannamaker has been the lead scientist for numerous solid-earth and prospect-scale studies including the EMSLAB-Juan de Fuca subduction zone, Long Valley and Coso magmatic systems, the Southern Appalachians orogenic belt, the Ruby Mountains metamorphic core complex, South Pole Antarctica, and the New Zealand Southern Alps. Dr. Wannamaker is the author of numerous technical papers dealing with quantitative MT interpretation, electromagnetic algorithm development, and properties of the Earth's crust.
