2019 - Fellow of American Geophysical Union (AGU)

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Astronomy
  • Geometry
  • Optics

Seismology, Geodesy, Plate tectonics, TEC and Ionosphere are his primary areas of study. His research integrates issues of Mantle and Thrust in his study of Seismology. His Geodesy study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Convergent boundary, Fault, Gravimetry and Rotation.

Kosuke Heki has researched Plate tectonics in several fields, including Geodetic datum and Rift. His studies in TEC integrate themes in fields like Amplitude and Acoustic wave. His Ionosphere study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Geodynamics and Anomaly.

His most cited work include:

  • Silent fault slip following an interplate thrust earthquake at the Japan Trench (353 citations)
  • Crustal velocity field of southwest Japan: Subduction and arc‐arc collision (299 citations)
  • The Amurian Plate motion and current plate kinematics in eastern Asia (159 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Geodesy, Seismology, Ionosphere, TEC and Geophysics. His research in Geodesy intersects with topics in Gravity, Sporadic E propagation and Middle latitudes. His Sporadic E propagation study combines topics in areas such as Daytime and Interferometric synthetic aperture radar.

His is doing research in Subduction, Intraplate earthquake, Pacific Plate, Tectonics and Rift, both of which are found in Seismology. His Ionosphere research incorporates elements of Volcano, Disturbance, Large earthquakes and Amplitude. His study explores the link between TEC and topics such as GNSS applications that cross with problems in Meteorology and Climatology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geodesy (39.37%)
  • Seismology (35.83%)
  • Ionosphere (22.44%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Ionosphere (22.44%)
  • Seismology (35.83%)
  • Geodesy (39.37%)

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

Kosuke Heki mainly investigates Ionosphere, Seismology, Geodesy, TEC and GNSS applications. His research investigates the connection with Ionosphere and areas like Volcano which intersect with concerns in Amplitude. Kosuke Heki has included themes like Scientific method and Deformation in his Seismology study.

His Geodesy research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Sporadic E propagation and Seismometer. His work on Total electron content as part of his general TEC study is frequently connected to Infrasound, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. His GNSS applications research includes elements of Zenith, Climatology and Inversion, Meteorology.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Development of a Slow Earthquake Database (28 citations)
  • Three‐Dimensional Tomography of Ionospheric Anomalies Immediately Before the 2015 Illapel Earthquake, Central Chile (10 citations)
  • Three-Dimensional and Trans-Hemispheric Changes in Ionospheric Electron Density Caused by the Great Solar Eclipse in North America on 21 August 2017 (9 citations)

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

  • Astronomy
  • Geometry
  • Optics

Kosuke Heki mainly focuses on Ionosphere, Seismology, TEC, Tomography and Geodesy. Ionosphere is a subfield of Geophysics that Kosuke Heki explores. His work on Slow earthquake as part of general Seismology research is frequently linked to Anomaly, bridging the gap between disciplines.

Kosuke Heki is involved in the study of TEC that focuses on Total electron content in particular. His research in the fields of 3d tomography and Three dimensional tomography overlaps with other disciplines such as Thesaurus and Electron density. Kosuke Heki combines subjects such as Amplitude, Oscillation amplitude and Eruption rate with his study of Geodesy.
