Locating earthquakes with surface waves and centroid moment tensor estimation
[1] Traditionally, P wave arrival times have been used to locate regional earthquakes. In contrast, the travel times of surface waves dependent on source excitation and the source parameters and depth must be determined independently. Thus surface wave path delays need to be known before such data can be used for location. These delays can be estimated from previous earthquakes using the cut-an...
متن کاملSpectral-Element Moment Tensor Inversions for Earthquakes in Southern California
We have developed and implemented an automated moment tensor inversion procedure to determine source parameters for southern California earthquakes. The method is based upon spectral-element simulations of regional seismic wave propagation in an integrated 3D southern California velocity model. Sensitivity to source parameters is determined by numerically calculating the Fréchet derivatives req...
متن کاملInvestigation of fracture processes using moment tensor inversion technique
The development and progress of fractures is accompanied by the radiation of acoustic waves due to microcracking. In the transient waveforms of acoustic emissions a huge number of information about fracture processes and the state of the material is inherent. Signal-based analysis of acoustic emissions allows, amongst other studies, for a fracture mechanics based investigation of failure. From ...
متن کاملRapid Full-Wave Centroid Moment Tensor (CMT) Inversion in a Three-Dimensional Earth Structure Model for Earthquakes in Southern California
S U M M A R Y A central problem of seismology is the inversion of regional waveform data for models of earthquake sources. In regions such as Southern California, preliminary 3-D earth structure models are already available, and efficient numerical methods have been developed for 3-D anelastic wave-propagation simulations. We describe an automated procedure that utilizes these capabilities to d...
