Joana Carvalho holds a PhD in Geophysical Sciences and Geoinformation (2020) from the Faculty of Sciences, University of Lisbon, a Master’s degree in Mining and Geoenvironment Engineering (2010), and a Bachelor’s degree in Engineering Sciences - Mining and Geoenvironment Engineering (2008), both from the Faculty of Engineering, University of Porto. She has published 7 peer-reviewed journal articles, participated in 13 scientific events, and co-supervised 3 undergraduate theses. She has been recognized with 2 awards/honors and has contributed to 6 funded research projects in various capacities, including Postdoctoral Researcher (2 projects), Research Fellow (3 projects), and Researcher (1 project). Her research spans the natural sciences, with a focus on Earth and Environmental Sciences, particularly Geophysics. Key areas of expertise include seismic noise analysis, seismic tomography, surface wave studies, oceanic hotspots, intraplate volcanism, crustal structure, and the interplay between ocean-atmosphere dynamics and crustal fluids. Her work also encompasses 4D seismology, climate change, and natural hazards. Her research interests align with advancing understanding in geosciences, with a focus on leveraging seismic techniques to study Earth’s processes and addressing pressing global challenges related to climate change and natural hazard mitigation.
