What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Seismology
- Plate tectonics
- Fault
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Seismology, Subduction, Fault, Focal mechanism and Tectonics.
His work on Seismology is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Permeability.
His work on Episodic tremor and slip as part of general Subduction research is frequently linked to Return period, bridging the gap between disciplines.
His Fault study combines topics in areas such as Petrology and Pressure gradient.
His Focal mechanism research includes elements of Fault mechanics, Stress field, Seismic anisotropy and Geodesy.
His Lithosphere, Inversion and Mountain formation study in the realm of Tectonics connects with subjects such as Strain rate.
His most cited work include:
- How faulting keeps the crust strong (675 citations)
- Implications of hydrostatic pore pressures and high crustal strength for the deformation of intraplate lithosphere (270 citations)
- Ambient noise Rayleigh wave tomography of New Zealand (224 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
John Townend mainly investigates Seismology, Fault, Induced seismicity, Subduction and Petrology.
The Seismology study combines topics in areas such as Shear and Crust.
John Townend has included themes like Intraplate earthquake and Lithosphere in his Crust study.
The Strike-slip tectonics research he does as part of his general Fault study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Drill site, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.
His study looks at the relationship between Subduction and fields such as Focal mechanism, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.
John Townend combines subjects such as Geothermal gradient, Outcrop, Cataclasite and Permeability with his study of Petrology.
