1D synthetic Green's functions, computed in a layered elastic solid using the generalized reflection and transmission coefficients (Luco and Apsel, 1983; Zeng & Anderson, 1995). E3D – fourth order, 3D staggered grid elastic finite difference code (Larsen & Schultz [5]; Larsen & Grieger [6]). 0.2 to 0.6 Hz frequency band. Compare these simulations with the observed data

Summary Good agreement is observed between the amplitudes of the data, and that of the 3D simulation. E3D matches the durations in the data and may anticipate some of the later arrivals. The 1D code does not. 3D basin effects are important and a 3D model is required to model ground motion within the Reno area basin. Need for refinement on the velocity and basin structural model.
