Welcome to my personal website. I am a researcher at the Institute of Geodynamics of the National Observatory of Athens since 2011. I graduated in 2001 from the Faculty of Geology of the University of Athens, where I chose Seismology as the principal subject of my BSc degree. Then I decided to improve my background in the field of Geodynamics and in 2003 I was awarded MSc in Space Techniques relating to Geosciences at the Department of Geophysics, University of Athens. After some years working in the private sector at geological engineering companies, I started my PhD at the Faculty of Geology of the University of Athens under the supervision of Prof. Evangelos Lagios. The research topic concerned the application of joint Space Techniques and Seismological research to study the ground deformation and the tectonic behavior of the broader area of central Ionian Islands (Greece). The methodology that was adopted was based on repeated measurements of local geodetic GPS networks which have been deployed in Cephalonia and Zakynthos Islands, while for a better correlation of the results from the GPS measurements, Differential SAR Interferometry was also applied as a supplementary technique. I defended my PhD thesis in 2009 and received the top grade. Following my PhD, I worked again in the private sector at companies involved with Earth Observation and Geographic Information Systems (GIS), as well as participated in a number of funded projects related to tectonic geodesy and seismic hazard as a researcher. In 2011 I was elected Assistant Researcher at the Institute of Geodynamics of the National Observatory of Athens and in 2016 I was promoted to Associate Researcher.
The focus of my research is tectonic geodesy and more specifically the use of GPS measurements to constrain crustal deformation and strain rate patterns, investigate coseismic and postseismic processes, as well as to quantify potential seismic activity so as to refine seismic hazard estimates. I facilitate quantification of motions associated with earthquakes and deformation related to the earthquake cycle using both conventional and high-rate GPS data along with seismology. My research activities include also the development of Ground Motion Prediction Equations (GMPE) through nonlinear regression analyses and their incorporation into probabilistic seismic hazard analysis and earthquake‐induced landslide hazard assessment. A large part of my work consists of processing the data from over 200 continuously recording GPS stations including all the GPS stations of the permanent network of the Institute of Geodynamics, as well as several other stations throughout Greece belonging to private and state-owned companies, scientific projects and consortiums. Details on the GPS data processing can be found at the Chousianitis et al. (2015) JGR paper under the Publications tab.
This site presents some details of my research, a short curriculum vitae as well as a list of my publications in peer-reviewed Science Citation Index journals.
A fundamental prerequisite for a better understanding of the rupture behavior of every active zone that hosts moderate and major earthquakes is the assessment of the finite fault slip model. This also constitutes an essential input for further research on the preseismic and postseismic behavior of the causative fault through the earthquake cycle. Toward this goal, teleseismic body and surface waves have been commonly used to invert for rupture finiteness. However, moderate events comprise the limit for the teleseismic modeling as the data are usually quite noisy and the source is not large enough to observe the details of the finiteness in the typical frequency range used at teleseismic distances (0.5–0.01 Hz). As a consequence, additional constraints brought by near-field information are critical to perform a robust finite-fault modeling. In this context, geodetic data by means of dynamic and static GPS displacements can greatly improve the imaging of the rupture history by mitigating the trade-off between parameters describing the spatial and temporal distribution of slip. Due to the complementary nature of the different data types on the spatial and temporal resolution of the faulting process, nowadays joint inversions are considered a prerequisite for the generation of reliable source rupture models not only for moderate events, but for major events as well. In this context, we employed the simulated annealing algorithm of Ji et al. (2002), which searches a bounded range of parameters for slip, variable rupture velocity, and rise time at each subfault along a fault plane, to infer the rupture process of the 2015 Lefkada earthquake (Mw=6.5). We jointly inverted near-source static and dynamic GPS displacements, strong motion, and teleseismic waveforms in an effort to image the slip model of the aforementioned moderate event. Utilizing a comprehensive data set, we managed to put tight constraints on the rupture pattern, overcoming the problem of limited resolution that arises from the use of each data set alone.

The use of high-quality velocity fields derived from dense Global Positioning System (GPS) networks nowadays have become essential in understanding how the Earth's crust deforms since they allow us to measure with confidence the way this deformation, or in other words strain, occurs. In this context, so far we have refined the understanding of the strain distribution and accumulation within central Greece using one-dimensional strain rates derived from rates of baseline length changes and two dimensional strain and rotation rate tensors (i.e. the symmetric and antisymmetric part of the velocity gradient tensor) by discretizing the study area using Delaunay triangulation. The former approach consisted in estimating strain rates from GPS baseline vectors, given that knowing the yearly rate of change between stations and their relative distances (baseline length), the calculation of 1-D strain per year (ΔL/L) is straightforward. For the latter approach we discretized the study area into a grid of, as much as possible, equilateral triangles using the Delaunay triangulation and applied singular value decomposition to solve the linear least-squares problem and generate the velocity gradient tensor along with the associated errors (diagonal elements of the covariance matrix). Eventually, we compared with geological data to constrain the present-day kinematics of the major structural units of central Greece, revealing the different kinematic regimes that are present in this region. A more robust approach was utilized throughout mainland Greece to evaluate the two-dimensional strain and rotation rate tensors, map the dilatation and maximum shear strain rates and as a result provide important constraints on the kinematics of deformation. This was achieved by constructing a uniform grid and using the horizontal velocities of ~100 cGPS stations to invert for the two-dimensional velocity gradient tensor by applying the distance weighted approach developed by Shen et al. (1996). This method models strain rates as continuous functions and provides an interpolated velocity gradient field that accounts for velocity uncertainties and network geometry. Subsequently, the calculated geodetic strain rates were translated into moment rates to facilitate a comparison with seismic energy release within the study area which encloses some of the most hazardous active structures of Greece. It has been well demonstrated that detailed geodetic monitoring can provide the basis for putting additional constraints on earthquake occurrence rate estimates and long-term seismic hazard. In this context, we performed geodesy-based and earthquake-based calculations to evaluate the regional earthquake moment production keeping in mind that while seismology provides mainly information about the seismic component of the deformation field, geodesy is able to sample both seismic and aseismic strain accumulation. Finally, we compared GPS- and earthquake-derived moment rates to evaluate the consistency of the contemporary deformation field with earthquake activity.

A ground-motion prediction equation (GMPE) is a mathematical model that relates a dependent parameter to independent variables which characterize the seismic source, the propagation path of the seismic waves, and the local site conditions at a particular site of interest. Since these relations provide estimates of the expected ground-motion triggered due to a specific earthquake scenario, they are especially useful in seismic hazard assessment and earthquake-resistant design. They are required to develop ground-motion hazard curves and are essential in either deterministic or probabilistic approaches, while are widely used for evaluation of the potential seismic performance of engineering structures. For the definition of a GMPE relative to a ground-motion parameter we basically follow a two-step regression approach proposed by Joyner and Boore (1991, 1993) adopting, however, some procedural variations. The use of the two-step procedure is aimed at separating the calculation of the coefficients for the terms pertaining to the energy released by events from those accounting for the shaking energy attenuation with distance. For the development of our GMPEs, we subdivide our dataset into a training and a validation subset. We use the training dataset to obtain the regression coefficients, and the validation dataset to compare the effectiveness of the derived models in predicting the ground-motion parameters. After each regression, we calculate Student’s test t values to assess the significance of the obtained parameters. We evaluate the goodness of fit through the efficiency coefficient of Nash and Sutcliffe (1970), and the closeness of error distribution to normality through the LH parameter introduced by Scherbaum et al. (2004).

It is widely recognized that landslides are one of the most damaging collateral effects associated with seismic shaking within a certain distance from the seismogenic source. Thus it is of great importance the assessment of those sites that can potentially undergo shaking capable of inducing activation of slope failures in a given time interval. In this context, we evaluated the earthquake-induced landslide hazard of Greece by means of a parametric time probabilistic approach developed by Del Gaudio et al. (2003). This approach takes into account the characteristics of the seismicity of a given area and estimates the resistance required for slopes to keep their failure probability below a fixed value. The implementation of this time probabilistic approach first quantifies the expected level of seismic shaking in terms of Arias intensity, then the slope strength demand is represented through the slope critical acceleration, and the conditions for earthquake landslide triggering are derived from the estimated amount of Newmark displacement. The methodology ultimately estimates the critical acceleration that slopes should have in order to limit (within a pre-fixed threshold) the probability that Newmark displacement will exceed a critical value within a given time period. The derived critical acceleration values are consequently representative of the slope strength demand in order to keep the future earthquake-induced slope failure probability below a fixed limit in the time interval considered.

Earthquakes on fault planes can trigger subsequent earthquakes at short distances from the hypocenter by transferring static stresses. Stress transfer can be modeled assuming that failure of the crust occurs by shear, so that the mechanics of the process can be approximated by the Okada (1992) expressions for the displacement and strain fields due to a finite rectangular source in an elastic, homogeneous and isotropic half-space. We compute static Coulomb stress changes (ΔCFF) to investigate the loaded and relaxed volumes of the neighboring crust using uniform or variable slip models and assuming various scenarios for resolving the stress changes either on optimally oriented planes according to the regional tectonic stress field or on planes of fixed orientation.
