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

Moment tensor solutions for small and moderate earthquakes in the Ibero‐Maghreb region
TL;DR: In this article, the authors applied time domain moment tensor inversion of local and regional waveforms to small and moderate (Mw = 35-57) shallow earthquakes from the Iberian Peninsula, northern Morocco, and northern Algeria.

Plate tectonic reconstructions with continuously closing plates
Michael Gurnis,M. Turner,Sabin Zahirovic,Lydia DiCaprio,S. Spasojevic,R. Dietmar Müller,James A. Boyden,Maria Seton,Vlad Constantin Manea,Dan J. Bower +9 more
TL;DR: A ''continuously closed plate'' (CCP) is introduced, such that, as each margin moves independently, the plate polygon remains closed geometrically as a function of time.

Imaging the transition from Aleutian subduction to Yakutat collision in central Alaska, with local earthquakes and active source data
Donna Eberhart-Phillips,Donna Eberhart-Phillips,Douglas H. Christensen,Thomas M. Brocher,Roger A. Hansen,Natalia A. Ruppert,Peter J. Haeussler,Geoffrey A. Abers +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, a 3D seismic velocity using abundant local earthquakes, supplemented by active source data, is used to investigate the interplay of tectonic elements in the Aleutian subduction zone.

Rapid viscoelastic uplift in southeast Alaska caused by post-Little Ice Age glacial retreat
Christopher F. Larsen,Roman J. Motyka,Jeffrey T. Freymueller,Keith A. Echelmeyer,Erik R. Ivins +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that extreme uplift in southeast Alaska began about 1770 AD, with relative sea level (RSL) change to 5.7 m and current uplift rates to 32 mm/yr.

European–Mediterranean regional centroid-moment tensors: 1997–2000
TL;DR: In this article, an extension of the standard CMT algorithm was used to compute regional centroid-moment tensors (RCMT) for moderate-magnitude earthquakes (MW as low as 4.0), analyzing intermediate period surface waves from regional and teleseismic seismograms.

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.
