Probabilistic seismic hazard assessment in Greece – Part 3: Deaggregation

Abstract

The present third part of the study, concerning the evaluation of earthquake hazard in Greece in terms of various ground motion parameters, deals with the deaggregation of the obtained results The seismic hazard maps presented for peak ground acceleration and spectral acceleration at 0.2 s and 1.0 s, with 10% probability of exceedance in 50 years, were deaggregated in order to quantify the dominant scenario. There are three basic components of each dominant scenario: earthquake magnitude (<i>M</i>), source-to-site distance (<i>R</i>) and epsilon (ε). We present deaggregation maps of mean and mode values of M-R-&epsilon; triplet showing the contribution to hazard over a dense grid.
