| Zusammenfassung |
| The probabilistic approach that was recently introduced by Kijko and Graham
(1998,1999) was applied for the estimation of seismic hazard for various sites in
Greece in terms of peak ground acceleration (PGA) and peak ground velocity (PGV).
These sites represent geographically cities of Greece among which are the capital of
Greece and some others with high, intermediate and low seismicity. The approach
allows the use of earthquake catalogues with incomplete reported historical and
complete instrumental data, the consideration of different magnitude thresholds, and
the incorporation of magnitude uncertainties. One of the advantages of the method is
that it does not require any determination of seismic zones. The estimated values of
PGA for return periods of 476 years were grouped in 4 categories, the same ones used
in the seismic hazard map for the New Seismic Code of Greece. Comparison results
were quite interesting and very encouraging concerning the reliability of this
probabilistic approach. |
