How to explain hazard to the community?4) Probabilistic Mapping with ShakeZoning Scenarios
Frankel et al. USGS Seattle Basin – Annual Probability of Exceedance λ:
Sum up a limited number of scenarios: faults; rupture directivities. Examine Annual Rate of Exceedance (A.R.E.) of μ0=30 cm/s. Conflate PGV > 30 cm/s with higher A.R.E.; <30 cm/s, lower A.R.E.
