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

Latitudinal Variation in Sedimentary Processes in the Peru-Chile Trench off Central Chile
David Völker,Michael Wiedicke,Stefan Ladage,Christoph Gaedicke,Christian Reichert,Klaus Rauch,Wolfgang Kramer,Christoph Heubeck +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present data from cruise SO161 derived from the sediment-filled sector of the Peru-Chile Trench between 35 and 44° S. They show that a fraction of the turbidity currents is channelled by a northward-dipping, axial channel.

Crustal thickness anomalies in the North Atlantic Ocean basin from gravity analysis
TL;DR: In this article, gravity-derived crustal thickness models were calculated for the North Atlantic Ocean between 76°N and the Chain Fracture Zone and calibrated using seismically determined thickness.

Palaeo-ice streams in the northern Keewatin sector of the Laurentide Ice Sheet
Hernán De Angelis,Johan Kleman +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a palaeo-ice-stream map of the northernmost Laurentide ice sheet is presented based on the interpretation of satellite imagery, and a geomorphic model is used to estimate the relative age of the geomorphic swarms.

Simple smoothed seismicity earthquake forecasts for Italy
TL;DR: The motivation for developing TripleS is presented, the construction of forecasts for Italian seismicity is described, and the research questions that remain to be answered with respect to TripleS are discussed.

Seismic ground motions from a bolide shock wave
TL;DR: In this article, an intensely brilliant bolide accompanied by an audible sonic boom occurred on the night of 3 November 2003 (∼2150 LT or 4 November 2003, 0350 UT) in northeastern Arkansas.

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.
