I have extensive experience in three key areas: geomagnetism, electromagnetic methods, and disaster preparedness. As a researcher at the Geomagnetic Laboratory of Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute (KOERI), I am deeply curious about the Earth's magnetic field. This complex field requires continuous monitoring across various locations on Earth and in space to create accurate maps. Understanding its physics provides valuable insights into our planet. At the Geomagnetic Laboratory, we record both the temporal variations of the Earth’s magnetic field and the regional variations within Türkiye.

In addition to geomagnetism, I work with electromagnetic methods, particularly magnetotelluric studies, which help us explore the subsurface electrical properties of the Earth. These studies are crucial for understanding geological structures and processes.

I am also actively involved in disaster preparedness. As part of the Disaster Preparedness Training Project, I continue to serve as an educator, working to raise public awareness about disaster risks. My efforts aim to build a more resilient society by enhancing community readiness for natural disasters.
