Scientific paper

The source characteristics of the Klamath Falls earthquake sequence were estimated from broadband seismograms recorded by the Berkeley Digital Seismic Network (BDSN), TERRAscope, and western United States IRIS stations. Solutions were obtained for events ranging in size from M(sub w) 3.8 to M(sub w) 6.0. An empirical Green's function inverse approach was used to estimate kinematic source parameters of the two M(sub w) 6.0 mainshocks. Both events were found to have ruptured northwest on adjacent segments of the Lake of the Woods system of normal faults. The two mainshocks abut where there is a pronounced 10 deg to 20 deg clockwise rotation of strike which may have initially acted as a barrier to a through-going M(sub w) 6.2 event.
