His studies in Subduction integrate themes in fields like Intraplate earthquake, Asperity, Earthquake rupture and Induced seismicity.
His work carried out in the field of Mantle brings together such families of science as Slab, Discontinuity, Shear waves and Mineralogy.
His Core–mantle boundary research includes themes of Post-perovskite and Mantle convection.
His studies deal with areas such as Epicenter and Thrust fault as well as Aftershock.
His most cited work include:
- Modern global seismology (1008 citations)
- The great Sumatra-Andaman earthquake of 26 December 2004 (830 citations)
- The great Sumatra-Andaman earthquake of 26 December 2004 (830 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Seismology, Seismic wave, Mantle, Geophysics and Subduction are his primary areas of study.
His Seismology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Surface wave and Geodesy.
His Seismic wave research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Wave propagation, Crust, Seismogram and Focal mechanism.
His Mantle research integrates issues from Amplitude, S-wave, Shear waves and Discontinuity.
Thorne Lay works mostly in the field of Geophysics, limiting it down to topics relating to Mantle convection and, in certain cases, Mantle wedge, as a part of the same area of interest.
His work is dedicated to discovering how Subduction, Trench are connected with Tsunami earthquake and other disciplines.
He most often published in these fields:
- Seismology (71.03%)
- Seismic wave (22.17%)
- Mantle (21.16%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?
- Seismology (71.03%)
- Subduction (19.65%)
- Plate tectonics (8.56%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Thorne Lay spends much of his time researching Seismology, Subduction, Plate tectonics, Aftershock and Fault.
His studies link Trench with Seismology.
His work in Subduction addresses subjects such as Moment magnitude scale, which are connected to disciplines such as Megathrust earthquake, Seismic moment and Coseismic slip.
Thorne Lay interconnects Tsunami earthquake, Fracture zone, Magnetic dip and Lithosphere in the investigation of issues within Plate tectonics.
The concepts of his Tsunami earthquake study are interwoven with issues in Seismometer and Seismogram.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Slab, Hypocenter, Tectonics and Earthquake statistics.
Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- A review of the rupture characteristics of the 2011 Tohoku-oki Mw 9.1 earthquake (50 citations)
- Two regions of seafloor deformation generated the tsunami for the 13 November 2016, Kaikoura, New Zealand earthquake (49 citations)
- Coseismic Rupture Process of the Large 2019 Ridgecrest Earthquakes From Joint Inversion of Geodetic and Seismological Observations (46 citations)
