Auxiliary data for analysis of tidal modulation of seismicity near Ridgecrest, California from 2008 to 2024

Tidal stresses near Ridgecrest, California computed with SPOTL between 2008 and 2026. The tidal stresses were decomposed into normal, shear and Coulomb stresses according to the optimally oriented faults in the five regions studied in Beaucé et al. (in review).

This dataset contains two other files (nearest_point_pre_mainshock.csv and nearest_point_post_mainshock.csv) that are required by the example in `seistides` (https://github.com/ebeauce/seistides) to read the data and use them to analyze the tidal modulation of microseismicity and reproduce the results of Beaucé et al. (in review).
