Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Seismology
  • Fault
  • Plate tectonics

Thomas V. McEvilly mostly deals with Seismology, Fault, Induced seismicity, San andreas fault and Active fault. Thomas V. McEvilly incorporates Seismology and Amplitude in his studies. His Fault study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Slab and Epicenter.

His San andreas fault research focuses on subjects like Hypocenter, which are linked to Geodesy, Seismic vibrator and San Andreas Fault Observatory at Depth. His Active fault research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Fault slip, Subduction, Quasiperiodic function, Seismic risk and Microseism. His Seismic gap research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Seismic moment and Seismic slip.

His most cited work include:

  • Recurrence models and Parkfield, California, earthquakes (261 citations)
  • Seismological studies at Parkfield. I. Simultaneous inversion for velocity structure and hypocenters using cubic B-splines parameterization (256 citations)
  • Clustering and Periodic Recurrence of Microearthquakes on the San Andreas Fault at Parkfield, California (245 citations)

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

Thomas V. McEvilly mainly focuses on Seismology, Fault, Induced seismicity, Seismic wave and San andreas fault. His Seismology study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Geophysics. His research integrates issues of Seismic vibrator, Epicenter, Seismogram and Geodesy in his study of Fault.

Thomas V. McEvilly combines subjects such as Microseism, Tectonics, Coda and Borehole with his study of Induced seismicity. He has researched Seismic wave in several fields, including Surface wave, Rayleigh wave and Seismic array. His work in the fields of San Andreas Fault Observatory at Depth overlaps with other areas such as Event.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Seismology (79.76%)
  • Fault (30.95%)
  • Induced seismicity (22.62%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1994-2004)?

  • Seismology (79.76%)
  • Induced seismicity (22.62%)
  • Fault (30.95%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Seismology, Induced seismicity, Fault, Borehole and Seismogram. His study in San andreas fault, Microearthquake, Plate tectonics, Hypocenter and Microseism falls within the category of Seismology. His San andreas fault research incorporates themes from Tectonics, Deformation and Seismic slip.

His research in the fields of San Andreas Fault Observatory at Depth and Aseismic creep overlaps with other disciplines such as Kinematics and Scaling. His Borehole study also includes fields such as

  • Coda and related Seismic vibrator,
  • Waveform and related Geodesy and Seismic gap. Thomas V. McEvilly has included themes like Seismic wave and Crust in his Seismogram study.

Between 1994 and 2004, his most popular works were:

  • Clustering and Periodic Recurrence of Microearthquakes on the San Andreas Fault at Parkfield, California (245 citations)
  • Fault slip rates at depth from recurrence intervals of repeating microearthquakes (240 citations)
  • Earthquake Potential Along the Northern Hayward Fault, California (160 citations)

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

  • Seismology
  • Plate tectonics
  • Fault

Seismology, Active fault, Slip rate, Induced seismicity and Lithosphere are his primary areas of study. His Seismology study spans across into fields like Radius and Magnetotellurics. His Lithosphere research includes themes of Plate tectonics, Fault, Mineralogy and Seismic anisotropy, Mantle.

His Plate tectonics study incorporates themes from Slab and Low-velocity zone. His work carried out in the field of Earthquake prediction brings together such families of science as Quasiperiodic function, Subduction, Seismic risk and Microseism. His Earthquake rupture research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Slipping, Large earthquakes and Aseismic creep.
