Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Fault
  • Seismology
  • Plate tectonics

His primary areas of investigation include Seismology, Fault, Active fault, Thrust fault and Fault scarp. Seismology and Quaternary are frequently intertwined in his study. Mustapha Meghraoui combines subjects such as Shore, Graben and Holocene with his study of Fault.

His studies in Thrust fault integrate themes in fields like Sinistral and dextral, Transpression, Block, Plate tectonics and Geomorphology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Fault block, Seismic refraction and Lithology. His Seismotectonics research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Vertical displacement and Seismic risk.

His most cited work include:

  • Structural analysis and interpretation of the surface deformations of the El Asnam earthquake of October 10, 1980 (267 citations)
  • 12 May 2008 M = 7.9 Wenchuan, China, earthquake calculated to increase failure stress and seismicity rate on three major fault systems (158 citations)
  • Evidence for 830 years of seismic quiescence from palaeoseismology, archaeoseismology and historical seismicity along the Dead Sea fault in Syria (144 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Seismology, Fault, Tectonics, Dead sea and North Anatolian Fault. His work is dedicated to discovering how Seismology, Interferometric synthetic aperture radar are connected with Geodesy and other disciplines. His work deals with themes such as Graben and Holocene, which intersect with Fault.

His Holocene research incorporates themes from Radiocarbon dating and Pleistocene. His study in Tectonics is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Fold and Structural geology. The concepts of his Seismic hazard study are interwoven with issues in Peak ground acceleration and Seismotectonics.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Seismology (78.17%)
  • Fault (44.16%)
  • Tectonics (15.74%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Seismology (78.17%)
  • Tectonics (15.74%)
  • Fault (44.16%)

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

Mustapha Meghraoui mainly investigates Seismology, Tectonics, Fault, Geodesy and Deformation. His research investigates the link between Seismology and topics such as Sequence that cross with problems in Geophysics. His work on Subduction is typically connected to Early warning system as part of general Tectonics study, connecting several disciplines of science.

His Fault study frequently involves adjacent topics like Seismic hazard. His research investigates the connection with Seismic hazard and areas like Active fault which intersect with concerns in Marine transgression. His research integrates issues of Geodynamics, Mediterranean climate and Interferometric synthetic aperture radar in his study of Geodesy.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Active Faulting Geometry and Stress Pattern Near Complex Strike‐Slip Systems Along the Maghreb Region: Constraints on Active Convergence in the Western Mediterranean (18 citations)
  • Stress Change and Fault Interaction from a Two Century‐Long Earthquake Sequence in the Central Tell Atlas, Algeria (11 citations)
  • The Al Hoceima earthquake sequence of 1994, 2004 and 2016: Stress transfer and poroelasticity in the Rif and Alboran Sea region (9 citations)

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

  • Plate tectonics
  • Fault
  • Paleontology

His scientific interests lie mostly in Seismology, Paleontology, Alluvium, Radiocarbon dating and Sequence. His work in the fields of Seismology, such as Fault, Block and Rift, overlaps with other areas such as Convergent boundary and North africa. Fault is closely attributed to Intraplate earthquake in his research.

His Alluvium research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Estuary, Spatial distribution and Shore. His Radiocarbon dating research includes elements of Sedimentary rock, Sinistral and dextral, Terrace and Paleoseismology. Mustapha Meghraoui interconnects Neotectonics, Geophysics and Stress change in the investigation of issues within Sequence.
