What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Erosion
- Sedimentary rock
- Paleontology
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Geomorphology, Erosion, Tectonics, Structural basin and Bedrock.
He frequently studies issues relating to Drainage basin and Geomorphology.
His Erosion study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Range, Precipitation, Denudation, Weathering and Plateau.
He combines subjects such as Late Miocene, Paleontology, Orographic lift and Foreland basin with his study of Plateau.
George E. Hilley focuses mostly in the field of Bedrock, narrowing it down to topics relating to Fluvial and, in certain cases, Décollement, Wedge, Accretionary wedge and Metamorphic rock.
His work investigates the relationship between Landslide and topics such as Aquifer that intersect with problems in Seismology.
His most cited work include:
- Dynamics of Slow-Moving Landslides from Permanent Scatterer Analysis (329 citations)
- Tectonics and Climate of the Southern Central Andes (278 citations)
- Formation of internally drained contractional basins by aridity-limited bedrock incision (210 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
George E. Hilley focuses on Geomorphology, Seismology, Tectonics, Erosion and Atmospheric sciences.
In his study, Physical geography is strongly linked to Denudation, which falls under the umbrella field of Geomorphology.
His Tectonics study contributes to a more complete understanding of Paleontology.
In Erosion, he works on issues like Weathering, which are connected to Tectonic uplift.
His research integrates issues of Volcano, Eddy covariance, Atmospheric pressure and Hydrology in his study of Atmospheric sciences.
As a part of the same scientific family, George E. Hilley mostly works in the field of Bedrock, focusing on Wedge and, on occasion, Décollement.
He most often published in these fields:
- Geomorphology (33.73%)
- Seismology (18.34%)
- Tectonics (18.34%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2020)?
- Seismology (18.34%)
- Geomorphology (33.73%)
- Hydrology (4.14%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary areas of study are Seismology, Geomorphology, Hydrology, Tectonics and Erosion.
His research in the fields of Tectonophysics, Fault scarp, Fault and San andreas fault overlaps with other disciplines such as Scale.
His work in the fields of Fault, such as Fault friction, overlaps with other areas such as Mechanical models.
Geomorphology and Elevation are commonly linked in his work.
His Tectonics research includes elements of Landslide, Effective stress, Sediment transport and Earth science.
His studies deal with areas such as Bedrock, Drainage basin and Tributary as well as Erosion.
Between 2015 and 2020, his most popular works were:
- Rate-weakening friction characterizes both slow sliding and catastrophic failure of landslides. (39 citations)
- Benchmarking analogue models of brittle thrust wedges (29 citations)
- The chemical, mechanical, and hydrological evolution of weathering granitoid (21 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Erosion
- Sedimentary rock
- Paleontology
His scientific interests lie mostly in Geomorphology, Tectonics, Erosion, Geotechnical engineering and Seismology.
His Channel study in the realm of Geomorphology interacts with subjects such as Upper and lower bounds.
His Tectonics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Elevation, Fault mechanics and Topographic relief.
The Erosion study combines topics in areas such as Drainage basin, Bedrock, Resistance and Tributary.
The concepts of his Geotechnical engineering study are interwoven with issues in Shear zone, Wedge and Critical taper.
When carried out as part of a general Seismology research project, his work on Fault scarp and Landslide is frequently linked to work in Scale, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.
