EarthScope Science Data Products provides access to a variety of data products that are being developed by EarthScope researchers. These are generally higher order products that result from grants to individual researchers or groups of researchers. Raw data collected and data products produced by EarthScope facilities are available under "Data Access". We urge EarthScope scientists who have data products they would like to share to contact the EarthScope National Office.

IRIS DMC Event Plot
The IRIS DMC's Event Plot product is a suite of plots that are automatically generated following magnitude 6+ earthquakes. The plots include station maps, global body wave record sections, phase aligned record sections, USArray body and surface wave record sections, virtual array P-waves and vespagrams, body wave envelopes and P-wave coda stacks. The plots use broadband data available at the IRIS DMC at the time the product was generated. Direct access to event plot. For more IRIS DMC data products visit www.iris.edu/dms/products.
Cascadia Interactive Tremor Catalog
Aaron Wech’s Cascadia tectonic tremor catalog is available at www.pnsn.org/tremor. This interactive website is updated daily and catalogs tremor epicenters from northern California to mid-Vancouver Island using regional networks and PBO data. Wech, A.G. (2010), Interactive Tremor Monitoring, Seis. Res. Lett., 81:4, 664-669, 2010.
Shear-Wave Splitting Database
A comprehensive shear-wave splitting database for North America (NA-SWS-1.1) is available from Kelly Liu (Missouri S&T) at www.mst.edu/~liukh/SWS. The database currently contains over 6000 splitting parameters for more than 850 stations in North America, all obtained in a homogeneous fashion. The database will be updated as the USArray moves east, improving spatial coverage and resolution continent wide.
P-Wave Tomography
Scott Burdick et al.'s P-wave tomography using data from regional and teleseismic distances. The dataset includes USArray TA data and, as the array moves east, the model will be updated leading to a high-resolution image of upper mantle structure beneath the U.S. Reference: Burdick, S., et. al., Seismological Research Letters, 79(3), 384-392, May/June 2008. web.mit.edu/~sburdick/www/tomography.html
Receiver Reference Models
The EarthScope Automated Receiver Survey (EARS) is now implemented at the IRIS DMC. EARS provides average crustal Vp/Vs ratios beneath USArray TA stations. For more information visit www.iris.edu/dms/products/ears. References: Crotwell, H.P. and T.J. Owens, Automated estimation of bulk crustal properties, IRIS Newsletter, 3:4-5, 2006 and Crotwell, H.P. and T.J. Owens, Automated receiver function processing, Seis. Res. Lett., 76:6, 2005.
Ambient Seismic Noise
The Center for Imaging the Earth's Interior at the University of Colorado provides images of seismic velocity derived from ambient seismic noise. The site contains Rayleigh and Love wave group and phase velocity maps since inception of the TA array in October 2004 illustrating improved resolution and increased spatial coverage. Maps are for several period bands from 8 s to 40 s sensitive to crust and uppermost mantle structure. ciei.colorado.edu/ambient_noise/
Earthquake Ground Motion Animations
The automated USArray Ground Motion Visualization (GMV) product of the IRIS DMC's is available at www.iris.edu/spud/gmv. Basic explanations about the animations are provided at IRIS Education and Outreach and include a tutorial describing different aspects of the animations. The animations of seismic waves as they sweep across the USArray illustrate regional and teleseismic wave propagation phenomena and were first introduced by Charles Ammon (Penn State) (eqseis.geosc.psu.edu/~cammon/QA/).
Regional Moment Tensors
Robert Herrmann's regional moment tensor solutions for moderate-to-large earthquakes in the U.S. from USArray TA and ANSS broadband seismic stations. Results are obtained in the time and the frequency domain. For both approaches and each event waveform fit and amplitude-phase match figures are provided that allow users to evaluate moment tensor quality. www.eas.slu.edu/Earthquake_Center/MECH.NA/
Geodetic monitoring of the western US and Hawaii
Tim Melbourne and colleagues in the Department of Geological Sciences at Central Washington University maintain a web site that is updated daily to show results from ~1500 continuous GPS stations along the Pacific/North American plate boundary, ranging from Alaska to the U.S./Mexico border. www.geodesy.org/wusdaily
For daily updates of GPS data from Hawaii, see www.soest.hawaii.edu/pgf/SEQ
Time-dependent Strain
The Stony Brook EarthScope Project, managed by William Holt, provides models of time-dependant strain associated with a number of recent earthquakes and other geologic events as constrained by GPS data. Software, tutorials and reference models are also available to construct models spanning time scales of days to decades and spatial scales of kilometers to megameters. rock.geo.sunysb.edu/~holt/EarthScope/
S-wave Tomography
3-D S-velocity model available from Dr. Suzan van der Lee from Northwestern Univesity providing data set for upper mantle S velocity structure of North America. www.earth.northwestern.edu/current/people/faculty/suzan/research.html
Searchable Product Depository
The Searchable Product Depository (SPUD) is the IRIS DMC's data product management system. SPUD products are typically derived from raw waveform data and are complementary to the IRIS DMC waveform data. Products can be images, movies, text files or other processing results such as moment tensors, MT transfer functions, calibration data, etc. (www.iris.edu/spud).
EarthScope Geodetic Imagery
EarthScope Geodetic Imagery: The "OpenTopography Portal" (www.opentopography.org) provides access to high-resolution topographic data, including LiDAR data acquired by GeoEarthScope. Data can be downloaded as DEMs, point clouds, and KML files. Data processing and visualization tools and a user discussion forum are also available. Image here shows high-resolution GeoEarthScope LiDAR data from northern California overlain on 10 m resolution topography from the USGS.
