- W4220867715 abstract "<p>The site effect has a great impact on seismic hazard assessment in urban and industrial regions.<br>For instance, a layer of soft soil with a thickness of several meters amplifies seismic waves from<br>1.5 to 6 times relative to the underlying bedrock. Therefore, investigating the main characteristics<br>of Quaternary deposits such as the granulometry and mechanical layering is crucial in site effect<br>studies. These parameters are directly related to the local geologic/geomorphic setting and genesis<br>processes of the Quaternary deposits. Nevertheless, large cities in development countries have&#160;<br>rapidly been enlarged covering Quaternary terrains before being evaluated for the site effect. This<br>rather rapid growth in urbanization interested us to take advantage of ancient aerial photographs<br>reprocessed with new image processing techniques in order to provide 3D terrain models from<br>such kind of areas before the recent urbanization. It helped us in the geomorphic terrain<br>classification and the detection of regions with different site effects originally caused by the<br>geomorphic setting and genesis of the Quaternary terrains. For example, site effect in a river flood<br>plain will be different from surrounding areas underlined by alluvial conglomerates or bedrock.<br>The main target of this study is investigating the primary-level site effect in Urmia city using 3D<br>geomorphic models derived from ancient aerial photos taken in 1955. Urmia in NW Iran is one of<br>the populated high-risk areas according to the standard regulations of earthquake in Iran, and<br>covers a wide region from mountainous areas to the ancient coast of Lake Urmia, with the Shahr<br>Chai River as the axial drainage. We created the 3D terrain model through the Structure from<br>Motion (SfM) algorithm. We have provided a detailed geomorphic map of Plio-Quaternary terrains<br>using the 3D Anaglyph view, Digital Elevation Model (DEM), and orthophoto-mosaic of the<br>region. It was complemented by granulometry and mechanical layering information from the<br>available geotechnical boreholes to reconstruct a shallow soil structure model for the area. It<br>allowed us establishing a primary-level site effect zoning for Urmia. Our results reveal the<br>presence of five distinct geomorphic zones, with different genesis processes and soil characteristics<br>from piedmont to coastal zones, which represent different soil structures and probable site effects.<br>This zoning paves the way for performing complementary site effect investigations with lower<br>time consummation and cost. The developed method, proposes a sophisticated tool to evaluate<br>primary site effect in areas covered by urbanization subjected to future natural hazards like<br>earthquake, landslide and flood before designing geophysical networks for the measurement of<br>quantitative site effect parameters such as Nakamura microtremor H/V and Multichannel Analysis<br>of Surface Waves.<br>Key words: Earthquake hazard, Site effect, Image Processing, Aerial photos, Quaternary geology, Structure from<br>Motion&#160;</p>" @default.
