Seismic response along profile B-B' (0-170 km) (see Fig. 1a) for the hypothetical SAF earthquake. (a) Simulated velocity seismograms for the 118 deg horizontal component: site 1 within the basin, site 2 is along the basin edge, and site 3 is outside the basin. (b). Vertical cross section below B-B'; the contours on the maps depict the S-wave velocity at a contour interval of 0.5 km/s. (c) Three component velocity seismograms at site 2. L depicts Love waves, LL depicts Love waves reflected at the basin edge. (d) Spectral magnitude for the 118 deg horizontal component at sites 1, 2, and 3.
