Abstract
Description
Introduction:
This poster presents the computational workflow and results of the August 2020 version (v20.8) of
probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) in New Zealand (NZ) based on physics-based ground motion
simulations (‘Cybershake NZ’). This version includes several notable advancements resulting from an improved
NZ-wide Vs30 model, and revisions to the hybrid broadband ground motion simulation method of Graves and
Pitarka (2010, 2015, 2016) based on simulation validation in Lee et al. (2019) which results in changes to the
high-frequency method and the empirical site amplification factors around the transition frequency.
