Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Seismology
  • Plate tectonics
  • Subduction

Honn Kao spends much of his time researching Seismology, Subduction, Induced seismicity, Episodic tremor and slip and Tectonics. Honn Kao merges many fields, such as Seismology and Collision, in his writings. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Slab, Diel vertical migration, Plate tectonics and Thrust fault.

His studies examine the connections between Induced seismicity and genetics, as well as such issues in Hydraulic fracturing, with regards to Productivity. His research integrates issues of Submarine pipeline, Hypocenter, Seismic moment, Oceanic crust and Moment magnitude scale in his study of Episodic tremor and slip. His Tectonics research incorporates themes from Fault, San andreas fault and Crust.

His most cited work include:

  • The Source‐Scanning Algorithm: mapping the distribution of seismic sources in time and space (288 citations)
  • Hydraulic Fracturing and Seismicity in the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin (213 citations)
  • A wide depth distribution of seismic tremors along the northern Cascadia margin (170 citations)

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

Honn Kao mostly deals with Seismology, Induced seismicity, Subduction, Hydraulic fracturing and Tectonics. Episodic tremor and slip, Fault, Seismogram, Seismic hazard and Aftershock are the primary areas of interest in his Seismology study. His study in Seismogram is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Seismic moment, Algorithm and Geodesy.

Honn Kao has included themes like Slab, Crust, Plate tectonics and Thrust fault in his Subduction study. His Crust research includes elements of Seismic noise, Sedimentary basin and Craton. His study in the field of Focal mechanism, Collision zone and Lithosphere also crosses realms of Strain rate.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Seismology (95.86%)
  • Induced seismicity (36.55%)
  • Subduction (23.45%)

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

  • Seismology (95.86%)
  • Induced seismicity (36.55%)
  • Hydraulic fracturing (22.07%)

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

Honn Kao mainly investigates Seismology, Induced seismicity, Hydraulic fracturing, Seismic hazard and Geotechnical engineering. His work in Seismology is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Seafloor spreading. His Seafloor spreading study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Aftershock, Seismic tomography, Subduction and Front.

His Induced seismicity research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Earth science and Geomorphology. The Seismic hazard study combines topics in areas such as Geodetic datum, Deformation and Crust. The various areas that Honn Kao examines in his Crust study include Lithosphere and Mantle.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Hydraulic fracturing volume is associated with induced earthquake productivity in the Duvernay play (79 citations)
  • Seismic Event and Phase Detection Using Time–Frequency Representation and Convolutional Neural Networks (21 citations)
  • Performance assessment of the induced seismicity traffic light protocol for northeastern British Columbia and western Alberta (18 citations)

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

  • Seismology
  • Plate tectonics
  • Subduction

Honn Kao spends much of his time researching Seismology, Hydraulic fracturing, Induced seismicity, Magnitude and Back projection. His studies deal with areas such as Seismic tomography and Seafloor spreading as well as Seismology. To a larger extent, he studies Geotechnical engineering with the aim of understanding Hydraulic fracturing.

His work deals with themes such as Tectonics and Seismic hazard, which intersect with Induced seismicity. His Magnitude research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Sedimentary basin, Paleontology and Seismic risk. Sequence combines with fields such as Fluid dynamics and Fault slip in his investigation.
