Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

Seismology
Optics
Wavelength

Keith D. Koper spends much of his time researching Seismology, Geodesy, Aftershock, Seismic wave and Epicenter. Seismology is often connected to Rayleigh wave in his work. His research in Geodesy intersects with topics in Seismic moment, Hypocenter and Back projection.

He combines subjects such as Intraplate earthquake and Pacific Plate with his study of Aftershock. Keith D. Koper has researched Epicenter in several fields, including Echelon formation, Continental collision and Slab pull. His work investigates the relationship between Seismometer and topics such as Seismic array that intersect with problems in Seismogram.

His most cited work include:

Depth‐varying rupture properties of subduction zone megathrust faults (319 citations)
Frequency-dependent rupture process of the 2011 Mw 9.0 Tohoku Earthquake: Comparison of short-period P wave backprojection images and broadband seismic rupture models (160 citations)
Teleseismic inversion for rupture process of the 27 February 2010 Chile (Mw 8.8) earthquake (158 citations)

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

His main research concerns Seismology, Microseism, Geophysics, Seismic array and Inner core. His study in Seismology focuses on Seismic wave, Seismic noise, Aftershock, Seismometer and Fault. In Microseism, Keith D. Koper works on issues like Wind wave, which are connected to Surface wave and Noise.

His study in the field of Mantle also crosses realms of Normal mode. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Rayleigh wave and Slowness. The Inner core study which covers Coda that intersects with Scattering.

He most often published in these fields:

Seismology (67.59%)
Microseism (15.17%)
Geophysics (14.48%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

Seismology (67.59%)
Sequence (6.21%)
Artificial intelligence (2.76%)

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

Keith D. Koper mostly deals with Seismology, Sequence, Artificial intelligence, Moment tensor and China. His Seismology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Seismic interferometry, Convolutional neural network and Phase. Keith D. Koper integrates many fields, such as Sequence and engineering, in his works.

His Artificial intelligence research includes elements of Machine learning and Pattern recognition. Many of his research projects under Pattern recognition are closely connected to Software portability with Software portability, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. The study incorporates disciplines such as Mathematical physics and Geodesy in addition to Moment tensor.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

Seismic Analysis of the 2020 Magna, Utah, Earthquake Sequence: Evidence for a Listric Wasatch Fault (11 citations)
Regional Seismic Network Monitoring in the Eastern Intermountain West (9 citations)
How Processing Methodologies Can Distort and Bias Power Spectral Density Estimates of Seismic Background Noise (6 citations)

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

Seismology
Optics
Wavelength

Seismology, Sequence, Network monitoring, Water resource management and Geophone are his primary areas of study. His Seismology research is mostly focused on the topic Fault. Sequence is intertwined with Earthquake swarm, National park, Archaeology and Maple in his study.

His research on Geophone often connects related topics like Seismic interferometry.
