What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Tectonics
- Sedimentary rock
- Fault
Jean-François Ritz mainly investigates Seismology, Tectonics, Thrust fault, Fault and Strike-slip tectonics.
The Seismology study combines topics in areas such as Structural basin, Geodetic datum, Quaternary and Pleistocene.
His research in Quaternary intersects with topics in Glacial period, Slip rate, Active fault, Alluvium and Seismotectonics.
His study in Tectonics is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Massif, Mountain range and Geomorphology.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Neotectonics and Tectonophysics in addition to Thrust fault.
His specific area of interest is Fault, where Jean-François Ritz studies Fault scarp.
His most cited work include:
- Active transtension inside central Alborz: A new insight into northern Iran–southern Caspian geodynamics (171 citations)
- Deciphering oblique shortening of central Alborz in Iran using geodetic data (167 citations)
- Uplift age and rates of the Gurvan Bogd system (Gobi-Altay) by apatite fission track analysis (130 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Jean-François Ritz spends much of his time researching Seismology, Fault, Tectonics, Active fault and Geomorphology.
As a part of the same scientific study, Jean-François Ritz usually deals with the Seismology, concentrating on Quaternary and frequently concerns with Glacial period.
His study in the field of Fault scarp, Thrust fault and Seismic gap is also linked to topics like Digital elevation model and Trench.
His Thrust fault study combines topics in areas such as Neotectonics and Seismotectonics.
His studies in Tectonics integrate themes in fields like Induced seismicity, Structural basin and Mountain range.
His work in the fields of Geomorphology, such as Alluvial fan, Erosion, Fluvial and Bedrock, intersects with other areas such as Present day.
He most often published in these fields:
- Seismology (62.37%)
- Fault (40.86%)
- Tectonics (31.18%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2020)?
- Seismology (62.37%)
- Tectonics (31.18%)
- Fault (40.86%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary areas of study are Seismology, Tectonics, Fault, Tectonophysics and Structural geology.
His study in the fields of Surface rupture, Strike-slip tectonics and Paleoseismology under the domain of Seismology overlaps with other disciplines such as Segmentation.
His research integrates issues of Extensional definition and Earthquake rupture in his study of Strike-slip tectonics.
His Paleoseismology research incorporates themes from Geodynamics and Graben.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Holocene, Quaternary and Fluvial.
The Active fault, Seismic gap and Slip rate research he does as part of his general Fault study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Context, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.
Between 2013 and 2020, his most popular works were:
- Active tectonics of the eastern Himalaya: New constraints from the first tectonic geomorphology study in southern Bhutan (35 citations)
- Active tectonics of the Northern Rif (Morocco) from geomorphic and geochronological data (34 citations)
- Evidence for a wide and gently dipping Main Himalayan Thrust in western Bhutan (29 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Sedimentary rock
- Tectonics
- Fault
His primary areas of investigation include Seismology, Surface rupture, Fault, Tectonics and Strike-slip tectonics.
He is studying Décollement, which is a component of Seismology.
He combines subjects such as Magnitude, Paleoseismology, Seismic gap, Southern central and Earthquake swarm with his study of Surface rupture.
His work on Slip rate as part of general Fault research is often related to First order, thus linking different fields of science.
His Tectonics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Geomorphology, Holocene and Fluvial.
His Strike-slip tectonics research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Extensional definition, Earthquake rupture and Crust.
