Comparison between observed and synthetic waveforms for event No. 6. The red lines are the synthetic waveforms and the black lines are the observed waveforms. The top text line illustrates the fit error and parameters of the earthquake fault plane. The small circles on the beachball indicate a lower hemispherical projection of first-arriving P waves (Pg or Pn). The first column of numbers above and below the station name are the azimuth and epicentral distance. The first row of numbers beneath each trace are time shifts in seconds required for optimal correlation between synthetic and observed seismic phases (vertical and radial component of Pnl, Rayleigh, and tangential component of Love waves from left to right, respectively). Cross correlation is also presented on the second row beneath each trace.
