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

Present-day trends of vertical ground motion along the coast lines
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on the quantification of global-scale VGM rates in order to identify global or regional trends, by combining tide gauges records and local satellite altimetry.

Lithospheric and sublithospheric anisotropy beneath the Baltic shield from surface-wave array analysis
TL;DR: In this article, the radial and azimuthal anisotropy in the upper mantle beneath southern and central Finland was measured by array analysis of fundamental-mode Rayleigh and Love waves.

Rapid uplift of southern Alaska caused by recent ice loss
Christopher F. Larsen,Roman J. Motyka,Jeffrey T. Freymueller,Keith A. Echelmeyer,Erik R. Ivins +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors use a viscoelastic earth model with an ice load history built upon observations of glacial change to predict uplift rates at the tide gauge and GPS sites as well as the total uplift at raised shoreline sites.

GOCE satellite derived gravity and gravity gradient corrected for topographic effect in the South Central Andes region
TL;DR: In this paper, the Earth gravity model EGM08 was used to calculate two functionals of the geopotential: the gravity anomaly and the vertical gravity gradient applied to the South Central Andes area.

TL;DR: In this article, the amplitude ratios of the S-waves to the P-waves and polarization patterns of the s-waves were analyzed and the authors concluded that a single-force source mechanism is more preferable than a double-couple source mechanism.

Free software helps map and display data
Paul Wessel,Walter H. F. Smith +1 more
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.
