Monte Carlo sampling for error propagation in linear regression and applications in isochron geochronology (2018)
Journal Article
Li, Y., Zhang, S., Hobbs, R., Caiado, C., Sproson, A., Selby, D., & Rooney, A. (2019). Monte Carlo sampling for error propagation in linear regression and applications in isochron geochronology. Science Bulletin, 64(3), 189-197. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scib.2018.12.019

Geochronology is essential for understanding Earth’s history. The availability of precise and accurate isotopic data is increasing; hence it is crucial to develop transparent and accessible data reduction techniques and tools to transform raw mass sp...

Markov Chain Monte Carlo inversion of temperature and salinity structure of an internal solitary wave packet from marine seismic data (2016)
Journal Article
Tang, Q., Hobbs, R., Zheng, C., Biescas, B., & Caiado, C. (2016). Markov Chain Monte Carlo inversion of temperature and salinity structure of an internal solitary wave packet from marine seismic data. Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 121(6), 3692-3709. https://doi.org/10.1002/2016jc011810

Marine seismic reflection technique is used to observe the strong ocean dynamic process of nonlinear internal solitary waves (ISWs or solitons) in the near-surface water. Analysis of ISWs is problematical because of their transient nature and limitat...

Bayesian Strategies to Assess Uncertainty in Velocity Models (2012)
Journal Article
Caiado, C. C., Goldstein, M., & Hobbs, R. W. (2012). Bayesian Strategies to Assess Uncertainty in Velocity Models. Bayesian Analysis, 7(1), 211-234. https://doi.org/10.1214/12-ba707

Quantifying uncertainty in models derived from observed seismic data is a major issue. In this research we examine the geological structure of the sub-surface using controlled source seismology which gives the data in time and the distance between th...
