Centroid-moment tensor solutions for October-December 2000

Centroid-moment tensor solutions are presented for 263 earthquakes that occurred during the fourth quarter of 2000. The solutions are obtained using corrections for a spherical earth structure represented by the whole mantle shear velocity model SH8/U4L8 of Dziewonski and Woodward [A.M. Dziewonski, R.L. Woodward, Acoustic imaging at the planetary scale, in: H. Emert, H.-P. Harjes (Eds.), Acoustical Imaging, Plenum Press, New York, vol. 19, 1992, pp. 785-797]. The model of an elastic attenuation of Durek and Ekstrom [Bull. Seism. Soc. Am. 86 (1996) 144] is used to predict the decay of the waveforms. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
