Microtrmoer Array Measurements at Takasu Area in Kochi City


Abstract
In our previous study, we carried out microtremor array measurements at Takasu area in Kochi city on November 2010. We used two circular arrays with radii of 50 m and 100 m simultaneously, and we successfully detected dispersive characteristics of both Rayleigh-wave and Love-wave in a frequency range between 1.2 to 3.8 Hz. To make a better understanding about surface wave propagation characteristics in more broad-band frequency range, we additionally conducted smaller array measurements on March 2013, using 4 sets of three-component portable seismometers which compose a circular array with a radius varying from 50 m to 25 m and 12.5 m, respectively. Results from newly observed data are reported and discussed.
