Southern surface rupture associated with the 1992 M7.4 Landers Earthquake: Did it all happen during the mainshock? Southern surface rupture associated with the 1992 M7.4 Landers Earthquake: Did it all happen during the mainshock?
Approximately three minutes after the magnitude 7.4 Landers mainshock on 28 June 1992, a M5.7 aftershock occurred south of the mainshock epicenter, with a location of 34° 7.65′N, 116° 23.82′W. This aftershock was recorded on an array of portable digital seismic instruments deployed in Morongo Valley, 21 km southwest of the event. Although peak accelerations are found to differ by...

Sediment-induced amplification and the collapse of the Nimitz Freeway Sediment-induced amplification and the collapse of the Nimitz Freeway
The amplification of ground motion by low-seismic-velocity surface sediments is an important factor in determining the seismic hazard specific to a given site. The Ms = 7.1 Loma Prieta earthquake of 17 October 1989 was the largest event in the contiguous United States in 37 years, and yielded an unparalleled volume of seismic data from the main shock and aftershock sequence1. These data...
