Input file number 15. Data label 16. input file name
* If item #9 is M then #3 is the minimum slip rate, #4 is the maximum slip rate, and #5 is the assigned 1-sigma uncertainty for the inversion (one-quarter the min/max range). The residual is zero if the calculated slip rate #6 falls between the min and max observed. If the calculated is outside the observed range, the residual is how far it falls outside the range.
** If item 9 is S, then #3 is the mean slip rate, #4 is not used, and #5 is the assigned 1-sigma uncertainty in the slip rate.
