Topographic amplification studies based on earthquake resposne spectra (C. Cauzzi, SED) Combined used of numerical simulations (Sulmona, Irpinia) and recorded data; Relating topographic amplification with the local altitude, slope, and estimated natural frequencies of the relief; Focus on main topographic categories of the Eurocode 8 for station selection (data from CH, IT and JP); Measure kappa from response spectra to understand the role of attenuation on the observed amplification;
Next steps • WCEE abstract submitted (though the deadline for the paper submission is approaching …) • Common processing tools for polarization analysis: • What should we compare? (frequencies, angles + uncertainties) • What should we do with earthquake data? • kappa (Carlo) • polarization – comparison with noise results • ??? • Shallow geophysics - Active Noise correlation with D arrays (Cecile?) • Work on DEM models (comparison with INGV Milan – V. Pessina)
