When are Non-Double-Couple Components of Seismic Moment Tensors Reliable?

There has been considerable discussion as to how to assess when non-double-couple (NDC) components of seismic moment tensors represent real source processes. We explore this question by comparing moment tensors (MTs) of earthquakes in three global catalogs, which use different inversion procedures....
