Influence of Site Amplification Approaches in PSRA: Insights From Five Different Cities

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 4, November 2026.
Regional and national seismic hazard models used in probabilistic seismic risk analysis often rely on generalized proxy‐based site terms to account for ground shaking amplification. This can result in coarse representations of site response, which can introduce bias or additional uncertainty in the associated risk results.

Suite of Regional Seismic Velocity Models for the U.S. Atlantic and Gulf Coastal Plains (CPVMv2.0): Incorporating Epistemic Uncertainty in Velocity Models

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 4, November 2026.
The U.S. Atlantic and Gulf Coastal Plain (CP) sediments are kilometers‐thick, low‐velocity deposits underlain by high‐velocity bedrock that create regional patterns of amplification and attenuation of ground motions. Capturing these effects is challenging because of the limited subsurface information available, particularly the shear wave velocity (VS)

Earthquake Ground Motion Cycle Count Datasets

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 4, November 2026.
This study presents a comprehensive set of earthquake ground motion cycle count datasets derived from the NGA‐West2 and NGA‐Sub databases. We applied peak counting, mean‐crossing, level‐crossing, and rainflow cycle counting methods to over 275,000 acceleration time series.

Accounting for Biases in the Analysis of Building Damage Data for the 2023 M7.8 Türkiye/Syria Earthquake Sequence

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 4, November 2026.
In the aftermath of a large earthquake, several practical constraints affect the systematic collection of data for assessing building damage. The available data are therefore typically incomplete, frequently missing key information such as the type of construction, age and geographic location.

CyberShake NZ: Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis in New Zealand Using Physics‐Based Ground‐Motion Simulations

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 4, November 2026.
This study presents the computational components and workflow developed to conduct probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) in New Zealand (NZ) using physics‐based ground‐motion simulations, referred to as “CyberShake NZ.” Semi‐automated procedures generate multiple realizations of kinematic rupture models, create rupture‐specific velocity models ...

Collocated Geotechnical and Geophysical Test Dataset at Three Sites in Napier, New Zealand

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 4, November 2026.
Reliable assessment of liquefaction hazard, particularly in the context of groundwater fluctuations associated with hydroclimatic changes and variability between liquefaction assessment methods, necessitates supplementary data and advanced site characterization methods.

Simulation‐Based Nonlinear Site Amplification Models for Western United States

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 4, November 2026.
This article presents one of the first nonlinear (NL) site amplification models relative to VS30 of 800 m/s for the Western United States (WUS) for both the smoothed effective amplitude spectrum (EAS), described as the orientation‐independent horizontal‐component Fourier amplitude spectrum (FAS) of ground acceleration, and the response spectra (RS ...

An Examination of the Reasons for, and Variability of, the Differences Between Response Spectra and Pseudo Response Spectra

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 4, November 2026.
For many decades, it has been common practice to overlook the differences between response spectra and pseudo response spectra. This practice stems from analyses indicating that the average difference between response spectra and pseudo response spectra is negligible for a viscous damping ratio of 5%, which is near‐universally adopted.

Obscured Rhythms: Using Rhythmanalysis to Understand How Symptoms Associated With Menopause Shape Everyday Experiences of Physical Activity

open access: yesSociology of Health &Illness, Volume 48, Issue 8, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Physical activity (PA) is frequently promoted as a means of managing symptoms associated with the menopause transition (MT), yet little is known of how the embodied, emotional and temporal disruptions of menopause influence the experiences of, and possibilities for, movement.
