Plots of logarithmic residuals for PGVs as a function of rock site PGAs using the GMPEs in Si and Midorikawa (1999). The data are color-coded by Vs30 values in a and DNL values in b, respectively. The KiK-net and K-NET sites are indicated by circles and triangles, respectively. The gray and solid lines denote the correction values for PGVs as a function of PGAs at rock sites using Eq. 3 for Vs30 values of 150 and 450 m/s, respectively. Note that the data points having DNL values smaller than 4 were excluded in the derivation of Eq. 3; they are included in the above plots for reference only. Some data points are provided with their site codes for reference close to the data points
