Codes and data for: Spatial Relationships between Coseismic Slip, Aseismic Afterslip, and

Seismic catalogs and slip models from multiple sources accompany a research paper on earthquake mechanics. The data includes processed catalogs from the Northern California Earthquake Catalog, the Southern California Seismic Network, and the International Seismological Centre Bulletin. Slip models for coseismic slip and afterslip are also provided, with contributions from individual researchers and the SRCMOD database.

Use Cases

• Reproduce figures from the associated research paper based on the provided code and data.
• Analyze spatial correlations between aftershock density and coseismic slip patterns based on the slip models.
• Study the relationship between aseismic afterslip and seismic activity based on the combined catalogs and models.
• Validate new slip inversion methods against published coseismic and afterslip models included in the repository.

Strengths

• Includes data from multiple authoritative seismic sources: NCEC, SCSN, and ISC.
• Provides both seismic catalogs and physical slip models (coseismic and afterslip) for analysis.
• Data is pre-processed and curated specifically for reproducing the paper's analysis.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Last update date is unknown; freshness unverified.
