Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Seismology
  • Global Positioning System
  • Fault

Kenneth W. Hudnut mainly focuses on Seismology, Global Positioning System, Geodetic datum, Geodesy and Seismic gap. His study in Elastic-rebound theory, Tectonics, Fault, Active fault and Aftershock is carried out as part of his studies in Seismology. His Active fault research incorporates themes from Strike-slip tectonics and Fault scarp.

His work carried out in the field of Global Positioning System brings together such families of science as Structural basin and Interferometric synthetic aperture radar. His research in Geodetic datum tackles topics such as Epicenter which are related to areas like Noise, White noise, Very-long-baseline interferometry and Crust. His work in Geodesy tackles topics such as Hypocenter which are related to areas like Seismic moment.

His most cited work include:

  • Near-field investigations of the landers earthquake sequence, april to july 1992. (343 citations)
  • The slip history of the 1994 Northridge, California, earthquake determined from strong-motion, teleseismic, GPS, and leveling data (324 citations)
  • Detection of aquifer system compaction and land subsidence using interferometric synthetic aperture radar, Antelope Valley, Mojave Desert, California (306 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Seismology, Fault, Geodesy, Geodetic datum and Global Positioning System. Kenneth W. Hudnut regularly links together related areas like Lidar in his Seismology studies. His Fault research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Superstition, Foreshock and Crust.

His Geodesy research incorporates elements of Fault slip and Epicenter. His Geodetic datum research includes themes of Aftershock and Deformation. His research in Global Positioning System intersects with topics in Hypocenter and Interferometric synthetic aperture radar.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Seismology (72.50%)
  • Fault (25.00%)
  • Geodesy (16.25%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2020)?

  • Seismology (72.50%)
  • Fault (25.00%)
  • Lidar (9.38%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Seismology, Fault, Lidar, Fault scarp and Surface rupture. His research on Seismology often connects related topics like Surface. His Fault research integrates issues from Geological survey, Crust, Rift and Interferometric synthetic aperture radar.

His Interferometric synthetic aperture radar research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Geodetic datum, Geodesy and Earthquake rupture. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Sinistral and dextral, Ranging and Digital elevation model. His Tectonics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Aftershock and Moment magnitude scale.

Between 2012 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Slip pulse and resonance of the Kathmandu basin during the 2015 Gorkha earthquake, Nepal. (224 citations)
  • Geomorphic and geologic controls of geohazards induced by Nepal’s 2015 Gorkha earthquake (198 citations)
  • Assembly of a large earthquake from a complex fault system: Surface rupture kinematics of the 4 April 2010 El Mayor–Cucapah (Mexico) Mw 7.2 earthquake (83 citations)

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

  • Seismology
  • Fault
  • Plate tectonics

Seismology, Tectonics, Fault, Lidar and Moment magnitude scale are his primary areas of study. His work on Interferometric synthetic aperture radar expands to the thematically related Seismology. Kenneth W. Hudnut mostly deals with Fault scarp in his studies of Fault.

The study incorporates disciplines such as San andreas fault and Tripod in addition to Lidar. His Peak ground acceleration study also includes fields such as

  • Structural basin which connect with Geodetic datum,
  • Glacier which connect with Lithology. His Active fault study deals with Lineament intersecting with Geodesy.
