Source Parameter Estimation

Source Parameter Estimation is a methodological framework in seismology that characterizes the physical properties and kinematics of an earthquake's hypocenter by inverting seismic waveforms to determine fundamental source attributes such as moment tensor components, fault orientation, and rupture dynamics.
