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 computersread more

TL;DR: In this paper, about 356 local earthquakes in the region of the Sikkim Himalaya have been accurately located and analyzed using 2181 P travel times and 2161 S travel times from a network of 11 broadband seismic stations operated by the National Geophysical Research Institute during January 2006 to November 2007.

Aseismic deformation of a fold-and-thrust belt imaged by synthetic aperture radar interferometry near Shahdad, southeast Iran
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used synthetic aperture radar (SAR) interferometry to detect slip on at least 600 km 2 of the Shahdad basal-thrust and splay-fault network in southeast Iran.

TL;DR: For example, inversion of 52 tsunami waveforms indicates that the 2006 tsunami source was about 200 km long, extending from the epicenter to northeast, with the largest slip of 3.5 m on the northeastern subfault as mentioned in this paper.
