In order to estimate peak ground motions and frequency characteristics of strong ground motions in southern korea, we employed the stochastic simulation method with the moment magnitude(M$_{w}$) and the hypocentral distance(R). We estimated same input parameters that account for specific properties of source and propagation processes, and applied them to the stochastic simulation method. The stress drop($\Delta$$\sigma$) of 100-bar was estimated considering results of research in ENA, China, and southern korea. The attenuation parameter x was calculated by analyzing 57 seismograms recorded from September 1996 to October 1997 and the estimation result of the attenuation parameter x is 0.00112+0.000224 R where R is hypocenter distance. We estimated strong ground motion relations using the stochastic simulation method with suitable input parameters(e.g. $\Delta$$\sigma$, x, and so on). At last, we derived relations between hypocentral distances and ground motions(seismic attenuation equation) using results of the stochastic prediction.esults of the stochastic prediction.n.

1994년 7월 25일 발생한 황해남부 지진(Mb=5.5)의 지진원 요소들을 결정하였다. 지진원 요소들을 결정하기 위하여 이 지진에 대하여 이전의 연구에서 얻어진 지진발생기구를 사용하였다. 지진발생기구에 의하면, 이 지진은 거의 동서방향의 압축응력장에 주향이동성분이 가미되어 발생한 것을 암시한다. 지진원 요소들은 단주기 및 장주기 P파에 대한 원지장 스펙트럼으로부터 계산되었다. 지진모멘트(M0), 코너주파수(f0), 지진원 반경(r) 및 응력강하량($\Delta$$\sigma$)은 각각 M0 = 3.18$\times$1024 dyne-cm, f0=0.3 Hz, r=3.7km, $\Delta$$\sigma$=27bar로 구해졌다. 지진모멘트로부터 산정한 모멘트 규모는 5.6으로 나타났다.

We estimated the spectrum decay parameter $\chi$ and the stress parameter ($\Delta$$\sigma$) in southeastern Korea. Especially, we propose a procedure to compute site-independent $\chi$$_{q}$ and dependent $\chi$$_{s}$ values, separately, This procedure is to use the coda normalization method for the computation of site independent Q or corresponding $\chi$$_{q}$ value as the first step followed by the next step, the computation of $\chi$$_{s}$ values for each site using the given $\chi$$_{q}$ value evaluated at the first step, For the estimation of stress parameter, we used seismic data monitored from three earthquakes occurred near Gyeongju in 1999 with the method of Jo and Baag, In addition, we simulated strong ground motion using the $\chi$ value and the stress parameter, In this case, we calculated the $\chi$ value with conventional method. The $\chi$ value of 0.016+0.000157R and the stress parameter of 92-bar was applied to the stochastic simulation, At last, we derived seismic attenuation equation using results of the stochastic prediction, and compared these results with some others reported previously.ported previously.
