- Seismogram which intersects with area such as Reflectivity and Refraction.
His work on Intraplate earthquake as part of general Tectonics study is frequently linked to Cauchy stress tensor, bridging the gap between disciplines.
His Lithosphere research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Transition zone, Geophysics and Mantle.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Asthenosphere and Anisotropy in addition to Mantle.
His most cited work include:
- Computation of Synthetic Seismograms with the Reflectivity Method and Comparison with Observations (864 citations)
- Global patterns of tectonic stress (507 citations)
- Regional patterns of tectonic stress in Europe (372 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Seismology, Crust, Lithosphere, Geophysics and Mantle.
His work in the fields of Seismology, such as Tectonics, Rift, Seismic refraction and Graben, intersects with other areas such as Stress field.
His Crust research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Petrology, Synthetic seismogram, Seismogram and Oceanic crust.
By researching both Lithosphere and Depth sounding, Karl Fuchs produces research that crosses academic boundaries.
As part of one scientific family, he deals mainly with the area of Geophysics, narrowing it down to issues related to the Basalt, and often Olivine.
