A key input for probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) is geologic slip rate data. Here, we compile all geologic slip rates that are reportedly used in U.S. National Seismic Hazard Map (NSHM) releases from 1996, 2002, 2007, 2008, and 2014. Although a new NSHM was released in 2018, no changes were made in geologic slip rate data used. The geologic slip rates are collated from existing NSHM reports and documentation, and no new data are reported herein. The geologic slip rates are coupled with the fault geometries used in NSHM2014/2018 calculations. The data are presented spatially as a shapefile (SHP), in keyhole markup language (KML) and geoJSON. A readme file accompanies this dataset explaining details of...

Peak ground acceleration ground motion values for 50, 10, and 2 percent probability of exceedance in 50 years are converted to equivalent modified Mercalli intensity using the relationships of Worden and others (2012). Values are for NEHRP site class B/C with a VS30 = 760 m/s.

This data set contains maps and shapefiles of uniform-hazard ground motion values calculated for a grid of points with a spacing of 0.2° in latitude and longitude over the conterminous U.S and Alaska, and 0.02° over Hawaii, using the 2023 National Seismic Hazard Model. 2%, 5% and 10% in 50-year probability of exceedance values are shown for peak ground acceleration (PGA), and 0.2, 1, and 5 second spectral acceleration for VS30 = 760 and 260 m/s, representing the National Earthquake Hazards Reduction Program site conditions B/C and D, respectively.

The boundaries (polygons and their tables) of the zones of induced seismicity are provided as documentation for the 50-state update of the National Seismic Hazard Model (NSHM) of 2023. These zones are within the conterminous United States and have assigned durations to represent seismicity that is considered induced. Previous NSHMs also considered the role of induced seismicity (Petersen and others, 2018 and Petersen and others, 2017) which is a separate category from other anthropogenic sources considered in the seismicity catalogs used in the hazard models. For expanded explanations, see Llenos and others (2023) and the metadata which also contains documented references used in this study.

The 2023 National Seismic Hazard Model for the conterminous United States considers the full catalog and several declustered catalogs in calculating earthquake rates and seismic hazard. These catalogs were declustered using the Reasenberg and nearest neighbor methods. All of these catalogs are included here and are described in more detail in the paper by Llenos and others (2023).

This data set represents probabilisitic seismic hazard curves and uniform-hazard ground motion values calculated for a grid of points with a spacing of 0.2 degrees in latitude and longitude over the conterminous U.S. (CONUS) and Alaska (AK) using the 2023 National Seismic Hazard Model. CONUS The data sets includes (1) probabilistic seismic hazard curves (full and truncated) for two peak parameters, peak ground velocity (PGV) and peak ground acceleration (PGA), and pseudo-spectral accelerations at 21 oscillator periods between 0.01 and 10s, and (2) uniform-hazard ground motion values for 2, 5, and 10% in 50 years probability of exceedance (PE) (corresponding to 2,475, 975, and 475-year return periods, respectively)...

This Data Release contains version 3.0 of two related earthquake geology databases for use in the 2023 U.S. National Seismic Hazard Model. The databases are: 1) A fault sections database (“NSHM23_FSD_v3”), which depicts the geometry of faults capable of hosting independent earthquakes, and 2) an earthquake geology site information database (“NSHM23_EQGeoDB_v3”), which contains fault slip rate constraints at points. These databases cover the 12 western U.S. states: Washington, Oregon, California, Idaho, Nevada, Arizona, Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico and Texas. Datasets containing crustal fault information for Alaska and the central and eastern United States were prepared by Bender and others, 2021 and Thompson...

The U.S. National Seismic Hazard Model (NSHM) relies on deformation models to assign slip rates along active faults used in the earthquake rupture forecast. Here, we present the geologic deformation model results in tabular form. We provide model outputs in multiple file formats, as well as the polygons used in analyses throughout the geologic deformation model process.The data presented herein are in support of the following interprative manuscript: Hatem, A.E., Reitman, N.G., Briggs, R.W., Gold, R.D., Thompson Jobe, J.A., Burgette, R.J., (2022) ­­­Western U.S. geologic deformation model for use in the U.S. National Seismic Hazard Model 2023, Seismological Research Letters.

This data set represents multiple period response spectra (MPRS) results for 160 test sites for the conterminous U.S (CONUS) using the 2023 National Seismic Hazard Model. The data sets includes (1) probabilistic seismic hazard curves (full and truncated) for peak ground velocity (PGV), peak ground acceleration (PGA), and 21 spectra periods from 0.01 to 10 seconds spectra acceleration and (2) uniform-hazard ground motion values for 2, 5, and 10% in 50 years probability of exceedance (PE) (corresponding to 2,475, 975, and 475-year return periods, respectively) and 1% in 100 year PE (corresponding to a 10,000-year return period) for each of the 160 test sites. Results are provided for VS30 = 1500, 1080, 760, 530, 365,...

The 2023 Update of the U.S. National Seismic Hazard Model defines the potential for earthquake ground shaking for various probability levels across the United States and is applied in seismic provisions of building codes, insurance rate structures, risk assessments, and other public policy. The updated model represents an assessment of the best available science in earthquake hazards and incorporates new findings on earthquake ground shaking, seismicity, and long-period amplification over deep sedimentary basins. The new model represents an update of the seismic hazard model; previous versions were developed in 1996, 2002, 2008, 2014, and 2018. This data set represents the chance of potentially damaging ground shaking...
