We present here the second release of a database, running on MS-Access platform, of the earthquake focal mechanisms of the Mediterranean area, published in the literature. For all of the mechanisms (more than 6000) the published parameters, taken from about 193 papers, have been checked for consistency and if necessary corrected when possible. The MS-Access application also allows the major moment tensor catalogs available for the area to be imported (without checking) and used.

Abstract
We present here the second release of a database, running on MS-Access platform, of the earthquake focal mechanisms of the Mediterranean area, published in the literature. For all of the mechanisms (more than 6000) the published parameters, taken from about 193 papers, have been checked for consistency and if necessary corrected when possible. The MS-Access application also allows the major moment tensor catalogs available for the area to be imported (without checking) and used.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
