TLDR
GMT allows users to manipulate (x,y,z) data, and generate PostScript illustrations, including simple x-y diagrams, contour maps, color images, and artificially illuminated, perspective, and/or shaded-relief plots using a variety of map projections.
Abstract
Version 31 of the Generic Mapping Tools (GMT) has been released More than 6000 scientists worldwide are currently using this free, public domain collection of UNIX tools that contains programs serving a variety of research functions GMT allows users to manipulate (x,y) and (x,y,z) data, and generate PostScript illustrations, including simple x-y diagrams, contour maps, color images, and artificially illuminated, perspective, and/or shaded-relief plots using a variety of map projections (see Wessel and Smith [1991] and Wessel and Smith [1995], for details) GMT has been installed under UNIX on most types of workstations and both IBM-compatible and Macintosh personal computers

Upper mantle structures beneath the Carpathian–Pannonian region: Implications for the geodynamics of continental collision

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented high-resolution images of upper mantle structure beneath the region from P-wave finite-frequency teleseismic tomography to help constrain such geodynamical interactions.

3-D modelling and analysis of Dst C-responses in the North Pacific Ocean region, revisited

TL;DR: In this paper, a 3D model of the upper and mid-mantle of the North Pacific Ocean is used to compare the observed and modelled responses of C-responses.

Source model for strong ground motion generation in the frequency range 0.1–10 Hz during the 2011 Tohoku earthquake

TL;DR: In this article, the source model of the 2011 Tohoku earthquake, which is composed of four strong motion generation areas (SMGAs), is estimated based on the broadband strong ground motion simulations in the frequency range 0.1-10 Hz using the empirical Green's function method.

Moho topography beneath the Iberian-Western Mediterranean region mapped from controlled-source and natural seismicity surveys

TL;DR: In this article, a 3D Moho depth map of the Iberian Peninsula, its continental margins and North Morocco is presented, based on both multichannel normal incidence seismic reflection and refraction/wide-angle reflection profiling.

Variations in magmatic processes along the East Greenland volcanic margin

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present two wide-angle seismic transects of the East Greenland margin and combine the velocity models with a compilation of 30-wideangle seismic velocity models from several publications along the entire east Greenland margin.

Free software helps map and display data

TL;DR: The Generic Mapping Tools (GMT) is introduced, which is a free, public domain software package that can be used to manipulate columns of tabular data, time series, and gridded data sets and to display these data in a variety of forms ranging from simple x-y plots to maps and color, perspective, and shaded-relief illustrations.
