An exploratory study for rapid estimation of critical source parameters of great subduction-zone earthquakes in Mexico
The rapid and reliable estimation of moment magnitude Mw, location, and size of rupture area, and radiated energy Es of great Mexican subduction zone earthquakes is critical for a quick assessment of tsunami and/or damage potential of the event and for issuing an early tsunami alert. To accomplish t...
