Intellectual Merit
|
This project addresses the research objectives of the seismology group and the interdisciplinary focus area of the Unified Structural Representation (USR). The questions asked have direct relevance to several long-term SCEC goals: 1) How does the state of stress vary across southern California? 2) Are there localized variations along CFM fault segments? and 3) How does the stress field determined from focal mechanisms relate to fault zone processes? |
Broader Impacts
|
The final version of the catalog of focal mechanisms will be made available to other researchers via the SCEDC. |
