Research Directed toward the Use of Long and Intermediate Period Seismic Waves for the Identification of Seismic Sources.

During the reporting period progress was made in combining long period seismic radiation with independent tectonic information inferred from the global tectonic patterns to constrain the focal mechanisms of events at teleseismic observation distances. In particular the use of the surface wave radiat...
