Compared with SA s and FAS of Northridge, Loma Prieta, and Izmit earthquakes in Hartzell et al. (2011). I also compared SA s from ENA synthe=cs with Riviere du Loup and Saguenay SA s.

Acceleration and velocity synthetics for three sites at 3 km R jb from fault for the M 7.5 simulation where the hypocenter is located 38 km from the southern end of a 150 km long fault. The top trace in each panel is the east west component (perpendicular to fault strike, i.e., fault normal). The bottom trace in each panel is the north south component (parallel to fault strike).

(c) The station located 3 km from the south end of the fault.seismograms are displaced vertically on each plot for clarity.note strong pulses on the fault-normal component for all the stations. This pulse is especially dominant on the fault-normal velocity synthetics for these receivers. tical strike-slip, surface-rupturing faults used here for M 7.5 and M 6.5, the closest distance to the fault is equal to the Joyner Boore distance R jb (Joyner and Boore, 1981). The hypocenter where the rupture starts is closer to the southern end of the fault. On the acceleration traces, the long-period forward directivity pulse is most apparent in the station off of the north end of the fault. The peak acceleration for the station to the south is significantly smaller. It is clear how rupture directivity causes large variations in ground motions for stations at different azimuths but identical distances from the closest portion of the fault. The accelerogram for the station near the middle of the fault has a more extended duration than those off the ends of the faults, again an expression of the differences caused by rupture directivity. The velocity traces demonstrate the large pulses on the fault-normal component for these three receivers. The peak velocity is largest on the station to the north, even though it is farther from the hypocenter than the other stations. This is caused by the larger portion of the fault between the hypocenter and the northern station. For stations at other azimuths (not shown in Fig. 7), the fault parallel peak velocities are closer to the fault-normal ones. Figure 8 displays synthetic accelerograms at three different distances from an M 7.5 earthquake. The decrease 20
