FA-71655 / Seismic magnitude estimation / Member archive

GNSS peak ground displacement magnitude: hypocentral distance · case 05

Nearby stations of deep events give inflated magnitudes.

Member previewVariant 5 · 3 implementations · 8 checks per implementation

Case contract

obs are [PGD in m, epicentral km]. Per station PGD in cm, R = hypocentral distance; skip PGD < 2 cm or R > 1000 km. log10(PGD) = A + B M + C M log10 R with A=-4.434, B=1.047, C=-0.138, solved for M. Return [mean M rounded 0.01, stations used] or None.

Why this case matters

GNSS PGD magnitudes do not saturate for great earthquakes in early warning.
