Description

The CMT solutions are described in “Novel Centroid-Moment-Tensor Inversion Incorporating Scholte-Rayleigh Waves for Deep-Sea Earthquakes: Revealing Minor Very Shallow Seismicity in the Outer Rise of the Japan Trench" by Lina Yamaya, Hisahiko Kubo, Tatsuhiko Saito, Shunsuke Takemura, Koichiro Obana, and Katsuhiko Shiomi.

The centroid moment tensor inversion method incorporates the Scholte-Rayleigh waves.

  • Earthquakes in the outer-rise region of the Japan Trench subduction zone
  • 2010 to 2022
  • Japan Meteorological Agency magnitudes (M_JMA) of 5.0–6.5

Data format: YYYY-MM-DD (JMA origin at JST), time (JMA origin at JST),  YYYY-MM-DD
(JMA origin at UTC), time (JMA origin at UTC), longitude, latitude, depth, Mrr, Mtt, Mff, Mrt, Mrf, Mtf (Nm), time shift, variance reduction, Mw

The centroid times of the CMT solutions can be obtained by adding the time shift to the JMA origin time (columns 1 and 2, or 3 and 4).

"CMT_outerrise.zip" includes 3D-CMT solutions for the earthquakes and station lists.
