The Nweke Research Group conducted field testing \u00a0to collect data for Horizontal to Vertical Spectral Ration (HVSR) and Microtremor Array Method (MAM). The field tests were conducted at two locations: (1) Nearby the Tarzana Clubhouse (Network\/Station code = CE\/24103) which recorded large amplifications in ground shaking during the 1994 Mw 6.7 Northridge Earthquake; and (2) Nearby the LA Brentwood VAMC (Network\/Station code = NP\/638) which is located at the northern edge of the Los Angeles Basin.<\/p>\n

10 seismometers were deployed at each site (with a second array of 5 seismometers deployed at an additional location nearby Tarzana Clubhouse). These seismometers are 120s Trillium Compacts.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The team involved included Prof. Nweke, his summer undergraduate researcher Alex Quiachon (incoming freshmen at Colorado School of Mines), and Tristan Buckreis (Ph.D. Candidate at UCLA).<\/p>\n

The deployments were done on two separate days one week apart. The data was used by Alex to determine the site periods (accomplished using HVSRpy) and develop a map displaying the spatial estimate of site period over the nearby areas using Kriging.<\/p>\n

Alex joins us at USC this summer under the USC Viterbi Summer Undergraduate Research Experience (SURE Program).<\/p>\n

A lot of thanks to Tristan Buckreis, Kenneth Hudson, the staff at Heroes Golf Course, and Mr. Alex who is a retired Police Detective from Tarzana.<\/p>\n

The data from this work will be published on NHERI DesignSafe-CI.<\/p>\n
