  1. 1. Isotropic and Anisotropic P and S Velocities of the Baltic Shield Mantle : Results from Analyses of Teleseismic Body Waves

    Author : Tuna Eken; Roland Roberts; Uli Achauer; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; teleseismic tomography; mantle lithosphere; seismic anisotropy; teleseismic earthquakes; shear wave splitting; Earth sciences; Geovetenskap; Geophysics Specialized In Seismology; geofysik; med inriktning mot seismologi;

    Abstract : The upper mantle structure of Swedish part of Baltic Shield with its isotropic and anisotropic seismic velocity characteristics is investigated using telesesismic body waves (i.e. P waves and shear waves) recorded by the Swedish National Seismological Network (SNSN). READ MORE

  2. 2. Source analysis of multiplet earthquakes (two case studies in Iran)

    Author : Samar Amini; Roland Roberts; Björn Lund; Zaher Hossein Shomali; Kuvvet Atakan; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Multiplet earthquakes; slip inversion; Coulomb stress; rupture directivity;

    Abstract : Multiplet earthquakes are large earthquakes of similar magnitude which occur close in time in the same limited geographical area. They are not common but they considerably increase the potential hazard in the area in which they occur. READ MORE

  3. 3. Dynamic Source Models of Icelandic Earthquakes and Teleseismic Tomograhy along the TOR array

    Author : Z. Hossein Shomali; Göran Ekström; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Earth sciences; Geovetenskap; Earth sciences; Geovetenskap; Geofysik med inriktning mot seismologi; Geophysics with specialization in Seismology;

    Abstract : This thesis describes new inversion-oriented methodological developments and their seismological applications. In the first study presented the dynamic source parameters of some local Icelandic earthquakes are studied by employing a time domain moment tensor inversion method. READ MORE
