Abstract Coseismic rotations of principal stress axes can provide insights into the strength crust, but it is unclear how common this phenomenon is. We use a nearest‐neighbor clustering algorithm to identify earthquake sequences in global ISC‐GEM catalog and regional Southern California catalog. Using an inner‐product‐based pairwise measure moment tensor similarity, we demonstrate that, both ca...

S U M M A R Y We describe a parametrization of moment tensors that is suitable for use in algorithms for moment tensor inversion. The parameters are conceptually natural and can be easily visualized. The ingredients of the parametrization are present in the literature; we have consolidated them into a concise statement in a geometric setting. We treat several familiar moment tensor topics in th...

the source parameters and focal depth of the destructive mw 6.5, 31 march. 2006 iran- silakhor earthquake, the two largest foreshocks and a major aftershock are determined using broadband data from a seismic network in iran based on a time-domain linear moment tensor inversion. the earthquakes occurred in the zagros suture zone in western iran. waveform inversion of the selected events estimate...

Moment tensors derived from seismic measurements during earthquakes are related to stress tensors and keep important information about surface displacement in the earth’s mantle. We present methods facilitating an interactive visualization of scattered moment data to support earthquake and displacement analysis. For this goal, we combine and link visualizations of spatial location and orientati...
