Gerald P. Roberts spends much of his time researching Seismology, Seismic hazard, Fault, Induced seismicity and Normal fault.
Gerald P. Roberts studies Seismology, namely Tectonophysics.
In the subject of general Seismic hazard, his work in Seismic hazard assessment is often linked to Strain rate, Kinematics and Image resolution, thereby combining diverse domains of study.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Tectonics and Scaling.
The concepts of his Induced seismicity study are interwoven with issues in Fault slip, Strike and dip and Mars Exploration Program.
His work in Normal fault addresses issues such as Subduction, which are connected to fields such as Submarine pipeline.
