Testing was performed at sites in Pennsylvania, Maryland, West Virginia, Virginia, the District of Columbia, North Carolina, and Tennessee. The purpose of the study is to determine the detailed site velocity profile, the average velocity in the upper 30 meters of the profile (VS,30), the average velocity for the entire profile (VS,Z), and the National Earthquake Hazards Reduction Program (NEHRP) site classification. The Vs profiles are estimated using a non-invasive continuous-sine-wave method for gathering the dispersion characteristics of surface waves. A large trailer-mounted active source was used to shake the ground during the testing and produce the surface waves. Shear wave velocity profiles were inverted from the averaged dispersion curves using three independent methods for comparison, and the root-mean square combined coefficient of variation (COV) of the dispersion and inversion calculations are estimated for each site.", "description": "iii, 66 p.", "publisher": {"@type": "Organization", "name": "U.S. Geological Survey"}, "author": [{"@type": "Person", "name": "Lai, Lena", "givenName": "Lena", "familyName": "Lai", "affiliation": [{"@type": "Organization", "name": "Pathways Careers Intern, USGS, Lawrenceville, NJ"}]}, {"@type": "Person", "name": "Kayen, Robert E. rkayen@usgs.gov", "givenName": "Robert E.", "familyName": "Kayen", "email": "rkayen@usgs.gov", "identifier": {"@type": "PropertyValue", "propertyID": "ORCID", "value": "0000-0002-0356-072X", "url": "https://orcid.org/0000-0002-0356-072X"}, "affiliation": [{"@type": "Organization", "name": "Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center", "url": "https://www.usgs.gov/centers/pacific-coastal-and-marine-science-center"}]}, {"@type": "Person", "name": "Corbett, Skye C. scorbett@usgs.gov", "givenName": "Skye C.", "familyName": "Corbett", "email": "scorbett@usgs.gov", "identifier": {"@type": "PropertyValue", "propertyID": "ORCID", "value": "0000-0003-3277-1021", "url": "https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3277-1021"}, "affiliation": [{"@type": "Organization", "name": "Geology, Minerals, Energy, and Geophysics Science Center", "url": "https://www.usgs.gov/centers/gmeg"}, {"@type": "Organization", "name": "Geology and Geophysics Science Center", "url": "https://www.usgs.gov/centers/gmeg"}]}, {"@type": "Person", "name": "Carkin, Brad A. bcarkin@usgs.gov", "givenName": "Brad A.", "familyName": "Carkin", "email": "bcarkin@usgs.gov", "identifier": {"@type": "PropertyValue", "propertyID": "ORCID", "value": "0000-0001-8318-4535", "url": "https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8318-4535"}, "affiliation": [{"@type": "Organization", "name": "Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center", "url": "https://www.usgs.gov/centers/pacific-coastal-and-marine-science-center"}]}, {"@type": "Person", "name": "Zangwill, Aliza", "givenName": "Aliza", "familyName": "Zangwill", "affiliation": [{"@type": "Organization", "name": "U.S. Army Corps of Engineers"}]}, {"@type": "Person", "name": "Estevez, Ivan", "givenName": "Ivan", "familyName": "Estevez", "affiliation": [{"@type": "Organization", "name": "U.S. Army Corps of Engineers"}]}], "funder": [{"@type": "Organization", "name": "Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center", "url": "https://www.usgs.gov/centers/pacific-coastal-and-marine-science-center"}], "spatialCoverage": [{"@type": "Place", "additionalType": "country", "name": "United States", "url": "https://geonames.org/6252001"}, {"@type": "Place", "additionalType": "state", "name": "North Carolina", "url": "https://geonames.org/4482348"}, {"@type": "Place", "additionalType": "state", "name": "Pennslyvannia", "url": "https://geonames.org/6254927"}, {"@type": "Place", "additionalType": "state", "name": "Tennesee", "url": "https://geonames.org/4662168"}, {"@type": "Place", "additionalType": "state", "name": "West Virginia", "url": "https://geonames.org/4826850"}, {"@type": "Place", "additionalType": "state", "name": "Virginia", "url": "https://geonames.org/6254928"}, {"@type": "Place", "additionalType": "city", "name": "Washington", "url": "https://geonames.org/4845151"}, {"@type": "Place", "additionalType": "city", "name": "D.C.", "url": "https://geonames.org/4140963"}, {"@type": "Place", "geo": [{"@type": "GeoShape", "additionalProperty": {"@type": "PropertyValue", "name": "GeoJSON", "value": {"type": "FeatureCollection", "features": [{"type": "Feature", "properties": {}, "geometry": {"type": "Polygon", "coordinates": [[[-80.244140625, 38.993572058209466], [-80.244140625, 40.41349604970198], [-74.915771484375, 40.41349604970198], [-74.915771484375, 38.993572058209466], [-80.244140625, 38.993572058209466]]]}}, {"type": "Feature", "properties": {}, "geometry": {"type": "Polygon", "coordinates": [[[-78.49731445312499, 37.37888785004527], [-78.49731445312499, 38.98503278695909], [-77.0086669921875, 38.98503278695909], [-77.0086669921875, 37.37888785004527], [-78.49731445312499, 37.37888785004527]]]}}, {"type": "Feature", "properties": {}, "geometry": {"type": "Polygon", "coordinates": [[[-83.726806640625, 35.191766965947394], [-83.726806640625, 37.43997405227057], [-77.6513671875, 37.43997405227057], [-77.6513671875, 35.191766965947394], [-83.726806640625, 35.191766965947394]]]}}]}}}, {"@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": 39.70353405395572, "longitude": -77.5799560546875}, {"@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": 38.18196031850218, "longitude": -77.75299072265625}, {"@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": 36.31587050910898, "longitude": -80.6890869140625}]}]}
