This technique is to convert a seismogram of a relatively deep major earthquake, A, to a hypothetic record, X, which would be observed if A occur at a shallower place beneath the station. For this purpose, we need a proper pair of the reference events, B and C of similar magnitude, where B is adjacent to the major shock A, and C represents the shallow origin for X. Then we assume the equivalence of the path effect between A and B and of the source effect between B and C, in order to equalize the record of A to X regarding the path effect. This conversion can be done via B and C, in the frequency domain. A preliminary test on the record at Waseda, Tokyo, in the earthquake of February 2, 1992 (M=5.9, h=93km, Tokyo Bay), predicts that the ground motion would be four times as large as the original record, if the same event occur at the depth of 43 km beneath the station. The method was also verified, on the response spectrum basis, to the records at Shuzenji, Shizuoka. ƒL[ƒ[ƒhi‰pjF - ‹LŽ–‹æ•ªF - ‹æ•ª @@@ˆÏˆõ‰ï˜_•¶W
