Research Focus

Laura uses geodetic methods to study the deformation of the earth's crust at tectonic plate boundaries. She conducts research in various locations, including New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, the Solomon Islands and Japan. She has a particular focus on understanding the spectrum of deformation processes that occur throughout the earthquake cycle at subduction zone plate boundaries. She uses both land-based GNSS methods and seafloor geodetic methods (seafloor pressure, GNSS-Acoustic, IODP downhole observatories) to investigate a range of crustal deformation processes.

She also has a strong interest in using multi-disciplinary observations to gain new insights into the physical processes responsible for active deformation observed geodetically, and has led several large, multidisciplinary experiments. In 2018, Laura was co-leader of IODP Expedition 375 on board the scientific drilling vessel JOIDES Resolution. The expedition investigated the causes of slow-slip events from Hikurangi and collected core samples and geophysical logs from rocks involved in producing slow-slip events at New Zealand’s Hikurangi subduction zone, and installed observatories beneath the seafloor to monitor changes in the crust during the slow-slip cycle. She also led the 2014 HOBITSS (Hikurangi Ocean Bottom Investigation of Tremor and Slow Slip) which was the first experiment to successfully use seafloor pressure sensors to resolve slow slip events on an offshore subduction zone.

Since 2023, Laura has a Helmholtz Distinguished Professorship (HDP) for Geodynamics, which is part of the Marine Geodynamics research unit. She maintains a joint affiliation with the University of Texas Institute for Geophysics.
