Abstract:
Accelerograms of 58 subduction zone earthquakes recorded by 25 K-NET coastal stations located in Sagami Bay and its adjacent regions were used to analyze the spectral properties of the source, propagation path, and site effects by using the generalized inversion technique. The inverted Delta sigma values vary from 1.7 MPa to 17.4 MPa, with an average value of 4.89 MPa and a standard deviation of log(10) 0.23. Although the depths of the selected earthquakes are confined to 30 km, which is similar to those of the crustal earthquakes, this study obtains an average Delta sigma which coincides with the plate-boundary earthquakes rather than the crustal earthquakes. It implies that the stress condition of the plate-boundary region varies from the inland crust. The obtained Q(f) = 105.9f(0.)(77) is similar to the previous studies. The kappa(0) of the selected stations varies from 0.0479 s to 0.0904 s, indicating high-frequency attenuation for the coastal area. The inverted site response shows the systematic tendency for different site classes. The amplification levels of class A sites fluctuate around one between 1 Hz and 10 Hz. Class B sites indicate peak amplification at the resonant frequency distributed between 3 Hz and 10 Hz. Most of the Classes D and E sites have peak amplification below about 4 Hz. Using the inversion results as the input parameters of the stochastic finite-fault method, an M(W)5.4 subduction zone earthquake was simulated. The resulting response spectra corresponded to the observations and confirmed that the inverted parameters are reasonable.
