What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Paleontology
- Sedimentary rock
- Fault
His scientific interests lie mostly in Seismology, Fault, Holocene, Alluvium and Geomorphology.
His work on Shear expands to the thematically related Seismology.
His work on Strike-slip tectonics as part of general Fault study is frequently linked to Structural asymmetry, bridging the gap between disciplines.
His Holocene research includes elements of Sinistral and dextral and Pleistocene.
His studies in Alluvium integrate themes in fields like Bedrock, Pluvial, Aeolian processes and Quaternary.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Fold and Radiocarbon dating.
His most cited work include:
- The Surface Rupture and Slip Distribution of the 17 August 1999 İzmit Earthquake (M 7.4), North Anatolian Fault (238 citations)
- Paleoseismic evidence of great surface rupture earthquakes along the Indian Himalaya (234 citations)
- Paleoseismology of the Johnson Valley, Kickapoo, and Homestead Valley Faults: Clustering of Earthquakes in the Eastern California Shear Zone (184 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His main research concerns Seismology, Fault, Holocene, Geomorphology and Quaternary.
As part of his studies on Seismology, Thomas K. Rockwell often connects relevant subjects like Structural basin.
As a member of one scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Fault, focusing on Alluvium and, on occasion, Seismic hazard.
His Holocene research integrates issues from Sinistral and dextral and Canyon.
Thomas K. Rockwell works in the field of Geomorphology, focusing on Alluvial fan in particular.
His Pleistocene study is related to the wider topic of Paleontology.
He most often published in these fields:
- Seismology (68.46%)
- Fault (40.77%)
- Holocene (14.23%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

- Fault (40.77%)
- San andreas fault (8.46%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Thomas K. Rockwell mainly investigates Seismology, Fault, San andreas fault, Quaternary and Structural basin.
Thomas K. Rockwell studies Seismology, focusing on Earthquake hazard in particular.
His work carried out in the field of Fault brings together such families of science as Gneiss, Surface, Pleistocene and Geomorphology.
He combines subjects such as Sinistral and dextral, Alluvium, Intraplate earthquake, Provenance and Landform with his study of Pleistocene.
Thomas K. Rockwell has included themes like Very high resolution, Trough, Seismic zone and Tectonophysics in his San andreas fault study.
His studies deal with areas such as Induced seismicity, Peninsula and Thermoluminescence dating as well as Quaternary.
Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Slow Slip Event On the Southern San Andreas Fault Triggered by the 2017 M(w)8.2 Chiapas (Mexico) Earthquake (12 citations)
- Dates of the Two Most Recent Surface Ruptures on the Southernmost San Andreas Fault Recalculated by Precise Dating of Lake Cahuilla Dry Periods (12 citations)
- Variable slip-rate and slip-per-event on a plate boundary fault: The Dead Sea fault in northern Israel (12 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Paleontology
