The facilities of IRIS Data Services, and specifically the IRIS Data Management Center, were used for access to waveforms, related metadata, and/or derived products used in this study. IRIS Data Services are funded through the Seismological Facilities for the Advancement of Geoscience (SAGE) Award of the National Science Foundation under Cooperative Support Agreement EAR-1851048.
In 2014, the International Federation of Digital Seismic Networks (FDSN) recommended that all seismic networks with a FDSN network code have a DOI. To cite data from a network with a DOI, refer to the data as you would to a normal scientific manuscript in the main body of the manuscript, or in the Acknowledgements. Then include the reference in the standard list of references or, if the list is long, in a special section for data sources.
A tool for discovering the FDSN network references is provided here.
Example citation in an Acknowledgement:
All seismic data were downloaded through the IRIS Wilber 3 system (https://ds.iris.edu/wilber3/) or IRIS Web Services (https://service.iris.edu/), including the following seismic networks: (1) the AZ (ANZA; UC San Diego, 1982); (2) the TA (Transportable Array; IRIS, 2003); (3) the US (USNSN, Albuquerque, 1990); (4) the IU (GSN; Albuquerque, 1988).

Global Seismographic Network (GSN) is a cooperative scientific facility operated jointly by the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the United States Geological Survey (USGS). The NSF component is part of NSF’s SAGE facility, operated by the Incorporated Research Institutions for Seismology (IRIS) under Cooperative Support Agreement EAR-1851048.
Additionally, please include the references for all networks where data were used as outlined above in the IRIS Data Services section. These include IU, II, IC, CU and the most up-to-date citation and DOIs for networks can be queried using the FDSN network reference tool.
