Abstract
Based on the analysis of Mediterranean, near-source,
strong motion records Zollo et al. [2006] (hereinafter
referred to as ZLN) showed that peak displacement amplitudes
of initial P- and S-wave seismic signals scales with the
earthquake size in the moment magnitude range 4 < Mw <
7.4. Similar evidence have been also reported for southern
California [Wu and Zhao, 2006] and Taiwan [Wu et al.,
2006] using only P-wave arrivals up to 100 km distance on
mostly short period and broadband waveform data.
