Centroid-moment tensor solutions for October-December, 1996

Centroid-moment tensor solutions are presented for 237 earthquakes that occurred during the fourth quarter of 1996. The solutions are obtained using corrections for aspherical earth structure represented by a whole mantle shear velocity model SH8/U4L8 of Dziewonski and Woodward [Dziewonski, A.M., Woodward, R.L., 1992. in: Emert, H., Hajes, H.-P. (Eds.), Acoustical Imaging. Plenum, 19, pp. 785-797.]. A new model of anelastic attenuation of Durek and Ekstrom [Durek, J.J., Ekstrom, G., 1996, Bull. Seism. Soc. Am. 86, 144-158] is used to predict the decay of the waveforms. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.
