Presents a high-resolution icequake dataset in Antarctica, enhancing detection and location precision using advanced software tools.
We present a high-resolution dataset of over one million icequakes located just upglacier of the grounding line of Rutford Ice Stream, West Antarctica, spanning a 23-day period during January 2019.The icequakes were identified and located initially using the QuakeMigrate software, and their locations can be refined using the GrowClust software.These two tools naturally complement one another: QuakeMigrate detects and locates large numbers of events, while GrowClust enhances location precision by relocating events using QuakeMigrate's robust picks and locations.To support this workflow, we introduce QuakeSupport, a supplementary package developed to facilitate and extend the use of both tools.Based on our extensive use of QuakeMigrate and GrowClust, we identified common processing needsautomating data preparation, efficiently managing extended QuakeMigrate runs, and converting QuakeMigrate outputs for GrowClustwhich QuakeSupport addresses through an end-to-end workflow.By reducing the learning curve and improving processing efficiency, QuakeSupport enables researchers to focus on scientific analysis.
