Dr. Matt Haney is an Assistant Professor with the Center for Geophysical
Investigation of the Shallow Subsurface (CGISS). Prior to coming to Boise State, Dr.
Haney served as a research geophysicist at the USGS Alaska Volcano Observatory in
Anchorage, AK. He has done research in volcano seismology, both imaging and monitoring,
using seismic noise and volcanic tremor as a USGS Mendenhall Postdoctoral fellow. Dr.
Haney previously worked for two years as a postdoctoral appointee in the Geophysics
Department at Sandia National Laboratories in Albuquerque, NM. He completed his Ph.D. in
Geophysics (2005) and BSc. in Geophysical Engineering (1999) at the Colorado School of
Mines in Golden, Colorado. In 2007, Dr. Haney received the J. Clarence Karcher Award from
the Society of Exploration Geophysicists (SEG) for outstanding contributions by a young
geophysicist. Dr. Haney is a member of the SEG, the European Association of Geoscientists
and Engineers, the Seismological Society of America, and the American Geophysical Union.
