Study on three independent parameters of focal mechanism solution [PDF]
Earthquake Science, 2017 In this paper, the relationships of the plunges and azimuths of T and P axes versus the strikes, dips, and rakes of two seismic nodal planes were derived to provide reference for earthquake researchers. The independence of the plunges and azimuths of T, B, and P axes in focal mechanism solution was discussed, and it was concluded that three parameters,

Seismicity-based 3D model of ruptured seismogenic faults in the North-South Seismic Belt, China
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023 The North–South Seismic Belt produces the most frequent strong earthquakes in the Chinese continental region, such as the MS 8.0 Wenchuan earthquake on 12 May 2008 and Ms 7.0 Lushan earthquake on 20 April 2013.

Morphotectonic interpretation of the 23-02-2015 Albacete earthquake, Spain [PDF]
, 2016 On 02-23-2015, an earthquake took place in the Iberian Peninsula megablock. This event is of the intraplate- type (Mw= 4,7 / h= 17 km) where there is a deformed morphotectonic zone.

The 1980, 1997 and 1998 Azores earthquakes and its seismotectonic implications [PDF]
, 2007 We have studied the focal mechanisms of the 1980, 1997 and 1998 earthquakes in the Azores region from body-wave inversion of digital GDSN (Global Digital Seismograph Network) and broadband data. For the 1980 and 1998 shocks, we have obtained strike– slip

Focal mechanism inversion of the 2018 MW7.1 Anchorage earthquake based on high-rate GPS observation
Geodesy and Geodynamics, 2021 The MW7.1 Anchorage earthquake is the most destructive earthquake since the 1964 MW9.2 great Alaska earthquake in the United States. In this study, high-rate GPS data and near-field broadband seismograms are used in separate and joint inversions by the ...
