A method for determining the source mechanism in small earthquakes with application to the Pacific Northwest region
A technique was developed in the present study to determine fault-plane solutions for small earthquakes. The method uses the direction and amplitude of initial P-wave motions recorded at a small number of seismic stations for epicentral distances less than 2000 km. Seismic arrivals recorded on short...
