Mapping Hangzhou Bay's seabed complexity to refine nonlinear seismic models

Mapping Hangzhou Bay's seabed reveals how complex site conditions, seafloor topography, variable marine deposits, and bedrock undulation, can profoundly reshape nonlinear seismic response. By comparing 1D and 2D simulations, this study shows that lateral variability, not just depth, matters. At borehole ZK3, vertical peak ground acceleration ratios between models reached 2.15-2.92. Such empirical evidence underscores the value of integrated, calibrated modeling.
