  1. Figure A2-1 • EPRI/SOG Mmax • Six earth-science teams, diverse methods • largest observed eq (+ increment) • catalog statistics – extreme occurrences • seismogenic feature: size, crustal setting, etc. • extrapolate frequency-magnitude curve (e.g., the 1,000-year eq) • global analogs • saturation of mb scale • others … • Broad distributions reflect diverse methods & large uncertainties • Approximate center: mid-mb-5 (quiet sites), mid-mb-6 (active sites) • USGS Mmax • CEUS global analogs: stable continental regions (AJ), Bhuj • Craton: M 7.0 • Extended Margin: M 7.5 • Mmax distribution for 2008

  5. Figure A2-5 Analysis • Develop alternative Mmax models that span those used in EPRI/SOG (and current PSHA practice) • Test Mmax models using USGS hazard model and computer codes • seismicity-based sources only (because they control the mid- to high-frequency hazard at many sites & Mmax is uncertain and controversial) • hold all parameters fixed except Mmax • Compare hazard results with current USGS model as ratio hazard maps and lists for selected sites • numerator: alternative Mmax / denominator: standard USGS Mmax • probabilistic ground motions for PGA, 5 Hz, 1 Hz • 2% probability of exceedance in 50 years

  6. Figure A2-6 Alternative Mmax Models • M5.0c5.5m • M 5.0 in craton, M 5.5 in margin • mb equivalent: 5.47c, 5.90m (AB95) or 5.27c, 5.67m (J96) • M6.0c6.5m • M 6.0 craton, M 6.5 margin • mb equivalent: 6.29c, 6.66m (AB95) or 6.04c, 6.40m (J96) • M7.0c7.5m • M 7.0 craton, M 7.5 margin • mb equivalent: 7.00c, 7.32m (AB95) or 6.74c, 7.07m (J96)
