Journal ArticleDOI
Preliminary reference earth model
TL;DR: In this paper, a large data set consisting of about 1000 normal mode periods, 500 summary travel time observations, 100 normal mode Q values, mass and moment of inertia have been inverted to obtain the radial distribution of elastic properties, Q values and density in the Earth's interior.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determination of earthquake source parameters from waveform data for studies of global and regional seismicity
TL;DR: In this article, an initial moment tensor is derived using one of the variations of the method described in detail by Gilbert and Dziewonski (1975), where perturbations to the elements of the moments are found simultaneously with changes in the hypocentral parameters.
Journal ArticleDOI
The global CMT project 2004–2010: Centroid-moment tensors for 13,017 earthquakes
TL;DR: For the period 2004-2010, 13,017 new centroid-moment tensors were reported as mentioned in this paper, and the results are the product of the global centroidmoment-tensor (GCMT) project, which maintains and extends a catalog of global seismic moment tensors beginning with earthquakes in 1976.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mapping the upper mantle: Three‐dimensional modeling of earth structure by inversion of seismic waveforms
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented a method for the inversion of waveform data for the three-dimensional distribution of seismic wave velocities, applied to data from the global digital networks (International Deployment of Accelerometers, Global Digital Seismograph Network).
Journal ArticleDOI
An Application of Normal Mode Theory to the Retrieval of Structural Parameters and Source Mechanisms from Seismic Spectra
TL;DR: In this paper, the elastic-gravitational free oscillations of the Earth are used to derive procedures for resolving nearly degenerate multiplets of normal modes of an earthquake point source.
