The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Seismology, Mantle, Geophysics, Geodesy and Transition zone. Many of his studies involve connections with topics such as Magnitude and Seismology. His Mantle research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Subduction, Inner core, Oceanic basin, Low-velocity zone and Ridge.
His research integrates issues of Amplitude, Shear waves and Seismogram in his study of Geophysics. Thomas H. Jordan has included themes like Mesoplates, Tectonics, Inverse problem and Angular velocity in his Geodesy study. The various areas that Thomas H. Jordan examines in his Transition zone study include Mantle convection and Classification of discontinuities.
His primary scientific interests are in Seismology, Geophysics, Mantle, Seismic hazard and Seismogram. His study in Seismology concentrates on Induced seismicity, Earthquake rupture, Ground motion, Tectonics and Aftershock. His research ties Geodesy and Tectonics together.
Thomas H. Jordan interconnects Convection and Lithosphere, Asthenosphere in the investigation of issues within Geophysics. His Mantle research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Classification of discontinuities, Discontinuity, Mantle convection and Transition zone. His Seismic hazard research includes themes of Earthquake prediction and Seismic risk.
His scientific interests lie mostly in Seismology, Seismic hazard, Earthquake forecasting, Earthquake rupture and Predictability. His work in the fields of Seismology, such as Induced seismicity, Seismogram and Aftershock, overlaps with other areas such as Physics based and Sequence. His Seismogram research also works with subjects such as
His study on Seismic hazard also encompasses disciplines like
Seismic risk together with Earthquake scenario and Scale,
Computational science, Petascale computing and Scalability most often made with reference to Earthquake simulation. The concepts of his Earthquake rupture study are interwoven with issues in Open interval, Hypocenter and Statistics. His research on Predictability also deals with topics like
Earthquake prediction that connect with fields like Urban seismic risk and Meteorology,
Probabilistic forecasting, which have a strong connection to Bayesian probability.
Thomas H. Jordan spends much of his time researching Seismology, Induced seismicity, Earthquake rupture, Seismogram and Predictability. His work in Seismology is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Wave propagation. His studies in Induced seismicity integrate themes in fields like Inversion, Magnitude, Earthquake forecast, Aftershock and Scaling.
His Earthquake rupture research includes elements of Geological survey, Segmentation, Sensitivity analyses and Computation tree logic. While the research belongs to areas of Seismogram, he spends his time largely on the problem of Numerical analysis, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Time series, Finite element method, Amplitude and Finite difference method. The study incorporates disciplines such as Data mining, Data processing, Econometrics, Collaboratory and Probabilistic forecasting in addition to Predictability.
