Such instruments have played a fundamental role in improving our understanding of earthquake source physics (Bock et al., 2011), earthquake engineering (Youd et al., 2004), and regional seismology (Zollo et al., 2010). Although strong‐motion accelerometers tend to have higher noise levels than high‐quality broadband velocity seismometers, their higher clip‐levels provide linear recordings at near‐field sites even for the largest of events where a collocated broadband sensor would no longer be able to provide...
