Site effect determination using seismic noise from Tungurahua volcano (Ecuador):implications for seismo-acoustic analysis [PDF]
, 2015 Scattering and refractions that occur in the heterogenous near-surface beneath seismic stations can strongly affect the relative amplitudes recorded by three-component seismometers.

Diffuse seismic waves and site effects
Journal of Geophysics and Engineering, 2011 The Green's function can be retrieved from averaging cross correlations of recorded motions within a diffuse field. When autocorrelation is performed the energy density at a point is proportional to the trace of the imaginary part of the Green's function tensor at the source itself.

Geo-Proxy-Based Site Classification for Regional Zonation of Seismic Site Effects in South Korea
Applied Sciences, 2018 Seismic site effects and topographic effects related to ground motion occur during an earthquake due to site-specific geotechnical or geological characteristics, including the geological or geographical structure and the characteristics of near-surface ...

The direct boundary element method: 2D site effects assessment on laterally varying layered media (methodology) [PDF]
, 2004 The Direct Boundary Element Method (DBEM) is presented to solve the elastodynamic field equations in 2D, and a complete comprehensive implementation is given. The DBEM is a useful approach to obtain reliable numerical estimates of site effects on seismic

Modelling strong seismic ground motion: three-dimensional loading path versus wavefield polarization [PDF]
, 2012 Seismic waves due to strong earthquakes propagating in surficial soil layers may both reduce soil stiffness and increase the energy dissipation into the soil.

Seismic response analysis for Romanian extra-carpathian sedimentary areas
Territorium: Revista Portuguesa de riscos, prevenção e segurança, 2021 The seismic response of the ground motion is analysed using processed recordings and related spectral characteristics. The analysis is carried out for few representative different sites, with different geological local conditions.
