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

Evidence for the accelerations of sea level on multi-decade and century timescales.
Philip L. Woodworth,Neil J. White,Neil J. White,Svetlana Jevrejeva,Simon Holgate,John A. Church,John A. Church,W. R. Gehrels +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed the evidence for accelerations in regional and global average sea level on timescales of several decades and longer, by inter-comparison of the recent findings of different researchers and by inspection of original tide gauge records.

GPS‐derived strain rate field within the boundary zones of the Eurasian, African, and Arabian Plates
Hans-Gert Kahle,Marc Cocard,Yannick Peter,Alain Geiger,Robert Reilinger,Aykut Barka,George Veis +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the GPS velocity field (1988-1998) for eastern Mediterranean and Asia Minor to determine the crustal deformation strain rate field in an area bounded by 35°N and 43°N, and 20°E and 48°E.

Temporal Changes of Shallow Seismic Velocity Around the Karadere-Düzce Branch of the North Anatolian Fault and Strong Ground Motion
TL;DR: In this article, a sliding window waveform cross-correlation technique is used to measure travel time differences and evolving decorrelation in waveforms generated by each set of the repeating events.

Juan de Fuca slab geometry and its relation to Wadati-Benioff zone seismicity
TL;DR: In this paper, a 3D model of the subducted Juan de Fuca plate was constructed from weighted control points, integrating depth information from earthquake locations and regional seismic velocity studies.

Subduction of the Philippine Sea plate beneath southwestern Japan: Slab geometry and its relationship to arc magmatism
Junichi Nakajima,Akira Hasegawa +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors carried out high-resolution three-dimensional seismic tomography of the crust and upper mantle beneath southwestern Japan using arrival-time data obtained from the nationwide seismograph network and provided new insights into the configuration of the Philippine Sea slab and arc magmatism.

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.
