Expected ground motion in the south-east of Spain due to an earthquake in the epicentral area of the 1910 Adra earthquake
To study the ground motion level associated with historical earthquakes located in Southern Spain, we have chosen a scenario placed in the Poniente Almeriense (Southeast Spain). In this zone, some relevant historical earthquakes have occurred, such as those of 1522, 1804 and 1910. In particular, the earthquakes of 1804 and 1910 the estimated and calculated magnitudes are of M = 6.3. Those earth...
متن کاملConfidence intervals for earthquake source parameters
S U M M A R Y We develop a method to obtain confidence intervals of earthquake source parameters, such as stress drop, seismic moment and corner frequency, from single station measurements. We use the idea of jackknife variance combined with a multitaper spectrum estimation to obtain the confidence regions. The approximately independent spectral estimates provide an ideal case to perform jackkn...
متن کاملLocal Tsunamis and Earthquake Source Parameters
A persistent problem in estimating the severity of local tsunamis generated by earthquakes is explaining the great event-to-event variability of tsunami run-up heights relative to the magnitude of the earthquake. Undoubtedly, there is always variability in run-up that is dependent on local bathymetry. However, many earthquakes in recent years have produced unexpectedly high local run-up heights...
متن کاملFaulting parameters of the 1999 Mula earthquake, southeastern Spain
The seismicity of southern Spain is characterized by low-to-moderate earthquake activity (magnitudes <5.5) related to the convergence of the African and Eurasian plates. The detailed structure of this complex plate boundary is not well understood and the study of faulting parameters and depths of the small-to-moderate-size events can contribute much to our understanding of the regional stresses...
متن کاملComprehensive analysis of earthquake source spectra in southern California
[1] We compute and analyze P wave spectra from earthquakes in southern California between 1989 and 2001 using a method that isolates source-, receiver-, and pathdependent terms. We correct observed source spectra for attenuation using both fixed and spatially varying empirical Green’s function methods. Estimated Brune-type stress drops for over 60,000ML = 1.5 to 3.1 earthquakes range from 0.2 t...
