Earthquake focal mechanisms present information on fault plane and stress direction, which is crucial for understanding tectonics and seismicity. Source focal mechanisms of small …
We introduce a Python package for computing focal mechanism solutions. This algorithm, which we refer to as SKHASH, is largely based on the HASH algorithm originally written in …
Determining earthquake hypocenters and focal mechanisms requires precisely measured P wave arrival times and first‐motion polarities. Automated algorithms for estimating these …

The increasing seismicity and improved seismic observation network in recent years provide an opportunity to explore factors that influence the triggering processes, spatiotemporal …
In microseismicity analyses, reliable focal mechanisms can typically be obtained for only a small subset of located events. We address this limitation here, presenting a framework for …
