Abstract
We provide ground motion prediction equations for computing medians and standard deviations of average horizontal component intensity measures (IMs) for shallow crustal earthquakes in active tectonic regions. The equations were derived from a global database with M 3.0–7.9 events. We derived equations for the primary M ‐ and distance‐dependence of the IMs after fixing the V S 30 ‐based nonlinear site term from a parallel NGA‐West2 study. We then evaluated additional effects using mixed effects residuals analysis, which revealed no trends with source depth over the M range of interest, indistinct Class 1 and 2 event IMs, and basin depth effects that increase and decrease long‐period IMs for depths larger and smaller, respectively, than means from regional V S 30 ‐depth relations. Our aleatory variability model captures decreasing between‐event variability with M , as well as within‐event variability that increases or decreases with M depending on period, increases with distance, and decreases for soft sites.
