Ground motion prediction equations (GMPEs) for earthquakes that occur in subduction zones, including both interface and slab parts, have a major impact on seismic hazard analysis in many parts of the world. For example, in the Sumatran subduction region, there could be a remarkable hazard for the Ma...
