Regional Ground Motion Prediction Equation for Sakhalin Island

Аннотация

The first regional attenuation relationship of peak ground accelerations is developed for Sakhalin Island based on data from a strong motion network and local network of seismometers. The applicability limits and standard error of the relationship are determined. The developed relationship is recommended for use in seismic hazard assessments for Sakhalin Island and the adjacent shelf, including updating of general seismic zoning maps. The ground motion prediction equation models calculated for other Earth regions suitable for Sakhalin are selected.
