Emily Kleber is a geoscientist at the Utah Geological Survey specializing in earthquake geology. She has a B.S. in geology from University of California, Davis, and a M.S. in geology from Arizona State University. She investigates how earthquakes and geologic hazards have changed the surface over geologic timescales. Her toolkit includes expertise in application of high-resolution topographic data (lidar) to geologic hazard mapping, paleoseismology, field geology, and geochronology. Emily is passionate about communicating and connecting with the public, earthquake scientists and engineers, emergency managers, and officials about earthquake geology and hazards in Utah.
