Effect of Shallow Slip Amplification Uncertainty on Probabilistic Tsunami Hazard Analysis in Subduction Zones: Use of Long-Term Balanced Stochastic Slip Models

Abstract: The complexity of coseismic slip distributions influences the tsunami hazard posed by local and, to a certain extent, distant tsunami sources. Large slip concentrated in shallow patches was observed in recent tsunamigenic earthquakes, possibly due to dynamic amplification near the free surface, variable frictional conditions or other factors. We propose a method for incorporating enhanced shallow slip for subduction earthquakes while preventing systematic slip excess at shallow depths over one or more seismic … Show more

“…Although shallow low rigidity zones may permit surprisingly large tsunamis for their magnitude, tectonic constraints imply such events should occur less often than higher-rigidity events with similar magnitude and lower slip. A similar trade-off was identified by Scala et al (2019) who used a completely different 'slip-amplification' approach to represent the effect of depth-varying rigidity on earthquake slip. Our 'magnitude-relabelling' approach implies the rigidity model affects the hazard by changing our interpretation of the integrated slip released by historical earthquakes (which in turn affects the logic-tree weights for the magnitude-frequency distributions).…”

“…Our 'magnitude-relabelling' approach implies the rigidity model affects the hazard by changing our interpretation of the integrated slip released by historical earthquakes (which in turn affects the logic-tree weights for the magnitude-frequency distributions). Compared with slipamplification (Scala et al 2019), the magnitude-relabelling approach has the practical advantage of not requiring any re-computation of tsunami waveforms. However it is not obvious whether one-or-other approach should be preferred on theoretical grounds, or the extent to which their results differ.…”

“…The local historical and geophysical knowledge, such as the proximity to a subduction zone and local seismicity, can be used constrain the likelihood of the faulting mechanism given the location and the magnitude of the earthquake. Furthermore, stochastic simulation methods can be used for predicting earthquake slip distributions [10].…”

“…Therefore, the choice of the function used to describe the SPDF depends on a priori knowledge or assumptions of the likely rst-order spatial distribution of slip. For example, in situations where there is no knowledge of preferential locations for slip, a uniform PDF could be used (Murphy and Herrero 2020); whereas if a speci c earthquake or a particular rupture feature is assumed to occur (e.g., shallow slip ampli cation) a more speci c function can be applied (Murphy et al 2016;Scala et al 2020).…”
