Determination of Subsurface Structure at Strong Ground Motion Observation Sites in Tottori Prefecture


Abstract
In this study, subsurface structures of strong ground motion observation sites in Tottori Prefecture were determined to obtain information for prediction of earthquake strong ground motion at each sites. S-wave velocity models and predominant period of H/V were obtained using array microtremor and observation 3-components single-site microtremor observations data at 43 sites. PS-P times with receiver functions were calculated using acceleration data at observation sites. The PS-P times of the receiver functions were compared with PS-P times that calculated from the subsurface structures. Further, we examined relationship of gravity basement and results of microtremor data analysis.
