An assessment of uncertainties attributed by analysts, array types and processing algorithms for microtremor observations, using the phased 2018 COSMOS Blind Trials

Metadata Updated: October 29, 2025

In this study, the Consortium of Organizations for Strong Motion Observation Systems (COSMOS) blind trials used microtremor array data from four sites with geology ranging from deep alluvial valleys to an alpine valley. Data were incrementally released to approximately a dozen analysts in four phases: (1) 2-station linear arrays; (2) sparse triangular arrays; (3) complex nested triangular or circular arrays; (4) all available geological control including drillhole data. While data from one site consisted of recordings from 3-component sensors, the other three sites consisted of data from vertical-component sensors only. The sites covered a range of noise source distributions, ranging from one site with a highly directional microtremor wave field, to others with distributed or omni-directional wave fields.
