Fig. 8From: From ambient vibration data analysis to 1D ground-motion prediction of the Mj 5.9 and the Mj 6.5 Kumamoto earthquakes in the Kumamoto alluvial plain, JapanComparison between our best model (in red) derived from the joint inversion and the “consensus” ESG6 model (in black). The comparison is shown in terms of Vp, Vs, density and SH transfer functions computed by the reflectivity method (Kennett and Kerry, 1979) implemented in the Geopsy software suite (Wathelet et al. 2020). In the SH modeling, P-wave and S-wave quality factors Qp and Qs were set equal to 1/10 of Vp and Vs values, respectivelyBack to article page
