WP 4.3 : Estimates of earthquakes source parameters and structure characteristics from massive seismic waveform analysis STRUCURE CHARACTERISTICS ➲ Automatic P and S wave arrival time picking and P-polarity measurements ( WP 1.1) ➲ Events location in 1D velocity models ➲ Seismic anisotropy ( WP 2.3 ) ➲ Vp/Vs estimation from traveltime data. ➲ Seismic tomography (Vp, Vp/Vs) of the fault system. SOURCE PARAMETERS ➲ Moment tensor solutions ( WP 2.5: Cut and Paste Method) ➲ Source parameters estimations ( WP 3.2) ➲ Preliminary attenuation and site response determination

Vp/Vs analysis from traveltime data. Investigation of the possible role of the fluid migrations in the fault system. Method: linear regression of S-P vs P traveltimes (Wadati diagram). Application to: Foreshocks (manual picks: events from 2009 January 16 to 2009 April 06 (h 00:36) Aftershocks (on MPX dataset: in progress)
