Plotting with GMT

The rake angle follows Aki&Richards p. 106:
   rake =  90         thrust
   rake = -90 or 270  normal
   rake =   0 or 360  sinstral, left-lateral
   rake = 180 or -180 dextral, right-lateral

MODL_flt_atr.gmt - interseismic slip distributions on all faults

MODL_flt_FFF_atr.gmt - interseismic slip distributions on fault number FFF (if +atr flag set)

Files contain fault attributes and quadrilaterals that can be used to make color plots of locking distributions. Since the header line for each fault segment has multiple attributes following the -Z, use awk to select the one to plot.

To plot the slip rate deficit for fault 1:

awk '{ if ($1 ==">") print $1,$2,$4; else print $1,$2 }' MODL_flt_001_atr.gmt  | psxy -Cpalette.cpt .... 

The entries on the segment header line are (in order):

1-2 ' > -Z '
3 fault_number 
4 slip rate deficit (mm/yr)
5 locking fraction (phi)
6 locking fraction 1-sigma uncertainty

MODL_grid_N_strain_atr.gmt

Files contain strain rates and quadrilaterals that can be used to make color plots of strain rate distribution. Since the header line for each grid point has multiple attributes following the -Z, use awk to select the one to plot.

1-2 '> -Z'
3-4 lon, lat of grid center
5-6 block number and name
7 is grid area in km^2

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.
