What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Plate tectonics
- Seismology
- Fault
His main research concerns Seismology, Fault, Plate tectonics, Asthenosphere and Lithosphere.
Strike-slip tectonics, Tectonics, Subduction, Induced seismicity and Earthquake rupture are the subjects of his Seismology studies.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Shear, Seismic gap, Slip line field and Crust in addition to Strike-slip tectonics.
Range, Scaling and Geodetic datum is closely connected to Magnitude in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Earthquake rupture.
His study on Active fault is often connected to Stress field as part of broader study in Fault.
He interconnects Epicenter, Rock mechanics, Seismic moment, Aftershock and Spatial distribution in the investigation of issues within Plate tectonics.
His most cited work include:
- Source parameters of southern California earthquakes (405 citations)
- Uniform California Earthquake Rupture Forecast, Version 3 (UCERF3)—The Time‐Independent Model (272 citations)
- Nonlinear strain buildup and the earthquake cycle on the San Andreas Fault (266 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Wayne Thatcher focuses on Seismology, Fault, Geodesy, Lithosphere and Geodetic datum.
His Seismology study combines topics in areas such as Shear and Crust.
In the subject of general Fault, his work in Strike-slip tectonics, Active fault, Elastic-rebound theory and Earthquake rupture is often linked to Deformation, thereby combining diverse domains of study.
His studies in Geodesy integrate themes in fields like Fault slip, Refraction and Interferometric synthetic aperture radar.
His Lithosphere research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Transition zone and Basin and Range Province.
His Geodetic datum study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as San andreas fault and North American Plate.
He most often published in these fields:
- Seismology (78.05%)
- Fault (21.95%)
- Geodesy (19.51%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2018)?
- Seismology (78.05%)
- Geodesy (19.51%)
