Fig. 15From: Strong ground motion simulations of the 2016 Kumamoto earthquakes using corrected empirical Green’s functions: methods and results for ESG6 blind prediction Steps 2 and 3 with improved parametersComparisons of the predictions in this study and those by blind prediction participants for the earthquake of 2016/04/16 3:03 (Mw 5.5). (Left) Black dashed and solid lines indicate the observed spectra and the synthetic spectra of the reference case, respectively. Red solid and dashed lines indicate the average and average ± σ spectra of all participants, respectively. (Right) Black and red lines indicate the ratio of the lines of same type in the left panel to the observed spectrumBack to article page
