This is the KaKiOS-16 earthquake catalog for southern California. We locate the southern California seismicity using the state-of-the-art probabilistic and nonlinear method NonLinLoc. We use only the P wavepicks to avoid introducing the velocity-model and picking-time errors of the S phase, which is harder to detect and thus less constrained. Using a subset of the best locatable earthquakes, we conduct a joint inversion using the VELEST software to obtain a minimum 1D velocity model and station corrections. We use the NonLinLoc method with this 1D velocity model and the inferred model uncertainties to obtain realistic location distributions for each event.
