Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Seismology
  • Statistics
  • Algorithm

Clifford H. Thurber mainly investigates Seismology, Induced seismicity, San andreas fault, Seismic tomography and Inversion. His is involved in several facets of Seismology study, as is seen by his studies on Fault trace, Aftershock, Subduction, Epicenter and San Andreas Fault Observatory at Depth. His Induced seismicity research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Fault and Inversion.

His San andreas fault study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Geological survey and Lithology. The Seismic tomography study combines topics in areas such as Event and Algorithm. His work in Inversion tackles topics such as Geodesy which are related to areas like Hypocenter, Inference and Inversion methods.

His most cited work include:

  • Parameter estimation and inverse problems (1573 citations)
  • Earthquake locations and three‐dimensional crustal structure in the Coyote Lake Area, central California (730 citations)
  • A fast algorithm for two-point seismic ray tracing (645 citations)

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

His main research concerns Seismology, Volcano, Induced seismicity, Seismic tomography and Fault. Seismology is closely attributed to Crust in his work. His research integrates issues of Seismic wave, Lithosphere, Inversion and Mantle in his study of Crust.

In the field of Volcano, his study on Magma, Caldera and Magma chamber overlaps with subjects such as Field. The study incorporates disciplines such as Slab and Tectonics in addition to Induced seismicity. Clifford H. Thurber frequently studies issues relating to Algorithm and Seismic tomography.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Seismology (71.90%)
  • Volcano (20.07%)
  • Induced seismicity (19.71%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Seismology (71.90%)
  • Volcano (20.07%)
  • Field (2.92%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Seismology, Volcano, Field, Magma and Petrology. His Seismology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Body waves and Crust. His studies in Body waves integrate themes in fields like Inversion and Plate tectonics.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Ambient noise level and Caldera in addition to Magma. His studies in Aftershock integrate themes in fields like Structural basin, Fault, Lithosphere and Moment. His Induced seismicity research incorporates elements of Volcanism, Mantle and Submarine volcano.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Ground motion response to an ML 4.3 earthquake using co-located distributed acoustic sensing and seismometer arrays (32 citations)
  • Magma Reservoir Below Laguna del Maule Volcanic Field, Chile, Imaged With Surface‐Wave Tomography (17 citations)
  • Hypocenter Relocation along the Sunda Arc in Indonesia, Using a 3D Seismic‐Velocity Model (14 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Statistics
  • Seismology
  • Mathematical analysis

His primary scientific interests are in Seismology, Aftershock, Volcano, Induced seismicity and Relocation. His work on Seismology is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Mantle. His study in Volcano is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Ambient noise level, Subduction, Petrology and Crust.

His Induced seismicity research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Fault slip, Soil science and Extraction. His research integrates issues of Hypocenter, Arc and Seismic velocity in his study of Relocation. His Fault research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Metamorphic rock, Seismic hazard, Plate tectonics and Geophysical imaging.
