Abstract

Interface issues between the seismic source characterization and the ground motion characterization are usually implicitly handled by the hazard computation. Nevertheless, the most relevant interface topics, for example the depth distribution and the distance metric, should be discussed among experts from both sides of the interface. In the following sections, the interface issues identified as the most important for the hazard are discussed briefly.
