Centroid Moment Tensor solutions for the earthquake dataset of the project IMAGINE_IT

The project IMAGINE_IT (PI Dr. Dimitri Komatitsch) received 40 million CPU-hours on the Tier-0 GENCI/TGCC CURIE supercomputer as a winner of the 9th PRACE consortium call (2014).  The awarded computational resources allowed us to construct a new 3D tomographic model for the Italian lithosphere, Im25, by combining spectral-element three-dimensional wavefield simulations and an adjoint-state method. To obtain the final model Im25, we performed 25 adjoint tomography iterations. Moreover, two additional source inversion iterations have been performed in order to improve the earthquake source parameter estimates and reduce the misfit between observed and synthetic seismograms: one inversion using the 3D wavespeed model considered as starting model of the tomographic procedure, and one inversion for the improved wavespeed model at iteration 12 (Im12).  The presented table contains the Centroid Moment Tensor parameters of the163 earthquakes considered in the IMAGINE_IT project for: the initial (Time Domain Moment Tensor; http://terremoti.ingv.it/) source solution based on a 1D wavespeed model (iter=0), the source inversion solution with the starting 3D wavespeed model (iter=1), and the source inversion solution with model Im12 (iter=2).
