In northeastern British Columbia, two northern transects span the Macdonald Platform to Kechika Trough and Ospika Embayment, and a third transect spans the parautochthonous Cassiar...

Except for the earliest Mont-Laurier, Canada, event of 19 October 1990, for which we modeled the three-component waveforms from two stations, we used at least five stations for the rest of the events. We were not able to use all three components for certain stations because of the low signal-to-noise...
