Professor
School of Geology and Geophysics at the University
G. Randy Keller is a Professor in the School of Geology and Geophysics at the University

of Oklahoma and holder of the Edward Lamb McCollough Chair in Geophysics. He also

serves as the Director of the Oklahoma Geological Survey and State Geologist. His

research interests stress the geological applications of geophysics and span a variety of

techniques at a variety of scales. He, his students, and colleagues have conducted many

studies of the structure and evolution of the crust using gravity, magnetic, remote sensing,

and seismic measurements integrated with geological data, often as part of large

international cooperative efforts. He, his students, and colleagues have also regularly

used geophysical methods to study issues such as ground water resources, earthquake

hazards, the geometry of specific geologic structures, and site characterization. He has

also been very involved in the Geoinformatics initiative and is interested in the

development of databases, techniques that foster data integration, software tools, and

web services that have proven useful to both academic and industry groups. His

international research has focused on East Africa, North Africa, Central Europe, and

China. He has been active in the AAPG and SEG and was awarded the Grover E. Murray

Memorial Distinguished Educator Award by the AAPG.
