Kelin Wang is a senior research scientist and has worked for the Geological Survey of Canada since 1992.
[2][3] In 2016 he became an Elected Fellow of the American Geophysical Union[4] and in 2017, Wang was named Honorary Research Professor at the University of Victoria.
In addition to geodynamics, his interests are in earthquake and tsunami hazards, while some of his works include Earth's lithospheric processes in relation to subduction zones and mantle flow.
His most notable work includes methods that use geodetic data from different Subductions zones in the deformation cycle.
Utilizing geodetic data with modeling figures creates a unified picture that shows how deformation is controlled by short and long-term viscous behavior of the mantle.
