Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Mathematical analysis
  • Optics
  • Seismology

Her primary areas of investigation include Seismology, Azimuth, Tectonics, Crust and Paraxial approximation. Her research integrates issues of Discontinuity and Petrology in her study of Seismology. Her work deals with themes such as Geodesy and Anisotropy, which intersect with Azimuth.

Her work carried out in the field of Anisotropy brings together such families of science as Receiver function, Mantle and Lithosphere-Asthenosphere boundary. Her Geometry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Initial value problem and Isotropy. The study incorporates disciplines such as Optics and Ray tracing in addition to Mathematical analysis.

Her most cited work include:

  • AZIMUTHAL ANISOTROPY IN THE EARTH FROM OBSERVATIONS OF SKS AT GEOSCOPE AND NARS BROADBAND STATIONS (244 citations)
  • Upper mantle stratification by P and S receiver functions (226 citations)
  • Teleseismic imaging of subducting lithosphere and Moho offsets beneath western Tibet (196 citations)

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

Véronique Farra mainly investigates Anisotropy, Seismology, Mathematical analysis, Isotropy and Geophysics. The concepts of her Anisotropy study are interwoven with issues in Polarization, Geometry and Geodesy. Her Seismology research integrates issues from Discontinuity and Crust.

In Mathematical analysis, she works on issues like Classical mechanics, which are connected to Phase velocity. The Isotropy study which covers Ray tracing that intersects with Ray. Her Geophysics study combines topics in areas such as Low-velocity zone and Rayleigh wave, Surface wave.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Anisotropy (44.32%)
  • Seismology (37.50%)
  • Mathematical analysis (28.41%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Anisotropy (44.32%)
  • Seismology (37.50%)
  • Seismic noise (7.95%)

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

Her primary areas of study are Anisotropy, Seismology, Seismic noise, Microseism and Geometry. Her Anisotropy study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Isotropy, Reflection and Mathematical analysis. In the subject of general Mathematical analysis, her work in Christoffel symbols is often linked to Perturbation, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

Her work in Seismology addresses issues such as Body waves, which are connected to fields such as Storm. Véronique Farra has researched Seismic noise in several fields, including Acoustics, Seismogram, Rayleigh wave and Geophysics. Her study in Geometry is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Magnetic dip and Linear combination.

Between 2012 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • The 2015 Gorkha earthquake: A large event illuminating the Main Himalayan Thrust fault (64 citations)
  • Modelling the ocean site effect on seismic noise body waves (51 citations)
  • On the shaping factors of the secondary microseismic wavefield (39 citations)

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

  • Mathematical analysis
  • Optics
  • Seismology

Véronique Farra spends much of her time researching Seismology, Microseism, Receiver function, Normal moveout and Anisotropy. Her study in the fields of Aftershock, Focal mechanism and Fault under the domain of Seismology overlaps with other disciplines such as Humanities and Observatory. Her Receiver function research incorporates themes from Subduction, Thrust fault and Crust.

Véronique Farra interconnects Isotropy, Reflector and Mathematical analysis in the investigation of issues within Normal moveout. Her Anisotropy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Linear combination and Coordinate system. Her Geophysics research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Wave propagation and Surface wave.
