Carlos Becerril
Research Engineer, University of Côte d'Azur
My professional experience ranges from the semiconductor industry, power distribution, quantum chemistry, and also the development of a variety of oceanographic instrumentation. I am currently a Doctoral Research Fellow at the Géoazur Laboratory for Earth Sciences, Université Côte d’Azur, France. My research activities focus on the improvement of low-frequency response in distributed acoustic sensing systems targeting geophysical and oceanographic phenomena, such as earthquakes and tsunamis.
