The mesh generator is specifically written for the simulation of wave propagation in southern California but can be modified for use in other geographical areas. The solver is completely general and can be used to simulate seismic wave propagation on regional and local scales.

The latest version adds the Moho boundary kernel computation option for kernel simulations and allows kernel computations with attenation on. Another option offered is the possibility of replacing Hauksson's background model by Lin's most recent southern California tomographic model.
