DOI: 10.1002/2017jb014935

Abstract: We develop an approach to calculate earthquake source directivity and rupture velocity for small earthquakes, using the whole source time function rather than just an estimate of the duration. We apply themethod to an aftershock… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Tectonophysics"

DOI: 10.1016/j.tecto.2017.11.005

Abstract: Abstract Application of the SCARDEC method provides the apparent source time functions together with seismic moment, depth, and focal mechanism, for most of the recent earthquakes with magnitude larger than 5.6–6. Using this large dataset,… read more here.
