His primary scientific interests are in Seismology, Subduction, Crust, Lithosphere and Continental crust. His work on Induced seismicity and Fault as part of general Seismology study is frequently linked to Continental shelf, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science. Subduction is closely attributed to Plate tectonics in his research. The study incorporates disciplines such as Slip, Tectonics, Seismic hazard and Mantle in addition to Crust. The Lithosphere study combines topics in areas such as Petrology, Geomorphology and Oceanic crust. His Convergent boundary research includes themes of Transform fault and Rift.
