Focal mechanism determination of induced microearthquakes in an oil field using full waveforms from shallow and deep seismic networks

A new, relatively high frequency, full waveform matching method was used to study the focal mechanisms of small, local earthquakes induced in an oil field, which are monitored by a sparse near-surface network and a deep borehole network. The determined source properties are helpful for understanding...
