Strain-based forward modeling and inversion of seismic moment tensors using distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) observations

This study used a waveform inversion of distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) data, acquired in two horizontal monitoring wells, to estimate the moment tensor (MT) of two induced microearthquakes. An analytical forward model was developed to simulate far-field tangential strain generated by an MT sourc...
