We derive a detailed earthquake catalogue and Vp, Vs and Vp/Vs models for the region around the 2019 Mw 6.4 and Mw7.1 Ridgecrest, California, earthquake sequence using data recorded by rapid-response, densely deployed sensors following the Ridgecrest main shock and the regional network. The new catalogue spans a 4-month period, starting on 1 June 2019, and it includes nearly 95 000 events detected and located with iterative updates to our velocity models. The final Vp and Vs models correlate well with surface geology in the top 4 km of the crust and spatial seismicity patterns at depth. Joint interpretation of the derived catalogue, velocity models, and surface geology suggests that (i) a compliant low-velocity zone near the Garlock Fault arrested the Mw 7.1 rupture at the southeast end; (ii) a stiff high-velocity zone beneath the Coso Mountains acted as a strong barrier that arrested the rupture at the northwest end and (iii) isolated seismicity on the Garlock Fault accommodated transtensional-stepover strain triggered by the main events. The derived catalogue and velocity models can be useful for multiple future studies, including further analysis of seismicity patterns, derivations of accurate source properties (e.g. focal mechanisms) and simulations of earthquake processes and radiated seismic wavefields.
