Abstract

We determine moment tensor solutions for 53 earthquakes in southern Alaska, which include 9 in Beluga, 22 in Cook Inlet, and 22 in Susitna. The moment tensors were estimated using both the waveforms and the first-motion polarities. The best solution was obtained through a grid-search in the double-couple moment tensor space using the "cut-and-paste" (CAP) approach of Zhu and Helmberger (1996).
