Overview of Science
The SCEEP group is composed of four College of Charleston Geology faculty whose broad research interests encompass everything from the cause of the earthquakes in South Carolina to the likely effects of earthquakes in South Carolina. Coming from a wide array of backgrounds, from earthquake chaser to environmental GIS modeler, the SCEEP group combines an array of skills to investigate South Carolina earthquakes and share that information with the public and the appropriate emergency management groups. Initiated in the spring of 2007, the SCEEP group is funded by the SCEMD and through the College of Charleston's Department of Geology and Environmental Sciences.
