TLDR
For the period 2004-2010, 13,017 new centroid-moment tensors were reported as mentioned in this paper, and the results are the product of the global centroidmoment-tensor (GCMT) project, which maintains and extends a catalog of global seismic moment tensors beginning with earthquakes in 1976.About:

ITRF2014: A new release of the International Terrestrial Reference Frame modeling nonlinear station motions
TL;DR: The ITRF2014 is generated with an enhanced modeling of nonlinear station motions, including seasonal (annual and semiannual) signals of station positions and postseismic deformation for sites that were subject to major earthquakes.

Slab2, a comprehensive subduction zone geometry model
Gavin P. Hayes,Ginevra L. Moore,Ginevra L. Moore,D. E. Portner,D. E. Portner,Mike Hearne,Hanna Flamme,Hanna Flamme,Maria Furtney,Gregory M. Smoczyk +9 more
TL;DR: The three-dimensional geometries of all seismically active global subduction zones are calculated and the resulting model, called Slab2, provides a uniform geometrical analysis of all currently subducting slabs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Global shear speed structure of the upper mantle and transition zone
TL;DR: The SL2013sv model as discussed by the authors is constrained by an unprecedentedly large set of waveform fits (∼3/4 of a million broad-band seismograms), computed in seismogram-dependent frequency bands, up to a maximum period range of 11-450 s. The model is parametrized on a triangular grid with a ∼280 km spacing.

Himalayan megathrust geometry and relation to topography revealed by the Gorkha earthquake
John Elliott,Romain Jolivet,Romain Jolivet,Pablo J. González,Jean Philippe Avouac,Jean Philippe Avouac,James Hollingsworth,Michael P. Searle,V. L. Stevens +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used geodetic measurements of surface displacement to show that the 2015 magnitude 7.8 Gorkha earthquake ruptured the Main Himalayan Thrust fault, which caused the high Himalaya farther north to subside by about 0.6m.

TL;DR: For example, the first ten months of the InSight lander on Mars revealed a planet that is seismically active and provided information about the interior, surface and atmospheric workings of Mars as mentioned in this paper.

Preliminary reference earth model
TL;DR: In this paper, a large data set consisting of about 1000 normal mode periods, 500 summary travel time observations, 100 normal mode Q values, mass and moment of inertia have been inverted to obtain the radial distribution of elastic properties, Q values and density in the Earth's interior.

Determination of earthquake source parameters from waveform data for studies of global and regional seismicity
TL;DR: In this article, an initial moment tensor is derived using one of the variations of the method described in detail by Gilbert and Dziewonski (1975), where perturbations to the elements of the moments are found simultaneously with changes in the hypocentral parameters.
