Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Volcano
  • Plate tectonics
  • Seismology

Atalay Ayele focuses on Seismology, Rift, Magma, Seafloor spreading and Dike. His work in Plate tectonics and Magma chamber is related to Seismology. Atalay Ayele has researched Rift in several fields, including Magmatism, Mid-ocean ridge and Crust.

His study looks at the relationship between Magma and fields such as Vulcanian eruption, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. His research in Seafloor spreading intersects with topics in East African Rift and Induced seismicity. Rift zone and Volcano is closely connected to Divergent boundary in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Dike.

His most cited work include:

  • Magma-maintained rift segmentation at continental rupture in the 2005 Afar dyking episode (424 citations)
  • Geophysical constraints on the dynamics of spreading centres from rifting episodes on land (172 citations)
  • Strain accommodation by magmatism and faulting as rifting proceeds to breakup: Seismicity of the northern Ethiopian rift (160 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Rift, Seismology, Induced seismicity, Volcano and Magma. His study in Rift is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Petrology, Seafloor spreading, Lithosphere and Magmatism. The concepts of his Seismology study are interwoven with issues in Dike and Crust.

His work is dedicated to discovering how Dike, Divergent boundary are connected with Rift zone and other disciplines. His work on Caldera is typically connected to Low frequency as part of general Volcano study, connecting several disciplines of science. His Magma research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Period, Vulcanian eruption and Silicic.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Rift (73.74%)
  • Seismology (65.66%)
  • Induced seismicity (30.30%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Rift (73.74%)
  • Seismology (65.66%)
  • Induced seismicity (30.30%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His primary areas of study are Rift, Seismology, Induced seismicity, Volcano and Magma. His work investigates the relationship between Rift and topics such as Petrology that intersect with problems in Geophysical imaging. In most of his Seismology studies, his work intersects topics such as Crust.

His Crust research includes themes of Receiver function and P-wave. His Induced seismicity research incorporates elements of Tectonics, Plate tectonics and Caldera. His studies deal with areas such as Seismic moment, Period, Earthquake swarm and Magma chamber as well as East African Rift.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Seismicity of the Bora‐Tullu Moye Volcanic Field, 2016–2017 (8 citations)
  • Low-frequency earthquakes beneath Tullu Moye volcano, Ethiopia, reveal fluid pulses from shallow magma chamber (6 citations)
  • Lower‐Crustal Seismicity on the Eastern Border Faults of the Main Ethiopian Rift (3 citations)
