| Abstract;Information on shear-wave splitting of crustal earthquakes can be used to infer the stress state of the upper crust. Since the late 1980's, shear-wave splitting of crustal earthquakes has been investigated by many researchers. In addition, recent developments of high-density and high-sensitivity seismic networks provide us with a great opportunity to investigate a detailed stress field using shear-wave splitting. To manage and use large amounts of previous and forthcoming shear-wave splitting data, a database of shear-wave splitting is required. We developed OpenSWS, an online database system offering public access to shear-wave splitting data in Japan. Because users can access the database through a Web page, they only require a web browser and Internet access. At present, the database stores bibliographic information of 23 papers and shear-wave splitting data from 270 stations. (author abst.) |
