Some General Implications of Results

Some General Implications of Results. Because hazard estimates at a point are often dominated by one or a few faults, an important metric is the participation MFD for each fault (we aggregate results from our ~2,000 subsections back onto the ~315 p arent sections to keep things manageable).

  1. Some General Implications of Results Because hazard estimates at a point are often dominated by one or a few faults, an important metric is the participation MFD for each fault (we aggregate results from our ~2,000 subsections back onto the ~315 parent sections to keep things manageable). Fault-section MFD plots over all Char logic-tree branches are available here: http://opensha.usc.edu/ftp/kmilner/ucerf3/2012_10_14-fm3-logic-tree-sample-x5_run0/parent_sect_mfds/ http://opensha.usc.edu/ftp/kmilner/ucerf3/2012_10_14-fm3-logic-tree-sample-x5_run0/parent_sect_mfds/cumulative_nucleation_mfd_comparisons.csv Some examples…

  9. Hazard Map Comparisons NSHMP 2008 (UCERF2) NSHMP Fortran code OpenSHA code

  10. Building-Code Implications via Risk Targeted Ground Motions (RTGM) Figure 30. Comparison of probabilistic risk-targeted ground motions for 0.2-sec spectral acceleration at three California cities. In each plot the dark blue bins represent the summed weights of different RTGM values across the 480 UCERF2 time-dependent, logic-tree branches. The green Line represents the average UCERF2 value, the orange line represents the official values from the US Seismic Design Maps, (http://geohazards.usgs.gov/designmaps/us) and the four lines labeled “U3 …” represent UCERF3 Characteristic reference branches for all four deformation models. The RTGM values were computed using the weighted combination of the three Next Generation Attenuation relationships (NGAs) that were used in the 2008 NSHMP. Mean UCERF2 values are generally lower than the US Design Map RTGM because the former does not consider additional epistemic uncertainty on ground motion that was included in the 2008 NSHMP.

  14. What about aftershocks? NSHMP has removed aftershocks using the Gardner-Knopoffdeclustering algorithm (Gardner and Knopoff, 1974). For our RELM region, 56% of M>5 events are main shocks and 44% are aftershocks according to this definition (Felzer, Appendix I) GR b-value is 0.8 for declustered catalog (compared to 1.0). We can apply this “filter” to UCERF3 ERFs
