Earthquake engineering

ratio of horizontal to vertical spectra of ground motion or microtremor at one station, used to estimate site resonance and amplification.

In earthquake engineering, horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratio refers to ratio of horizontal to vertical spectra of ground motion or microtremor at one station, used to estimate site resonance and amplification. This meaning comes from Lermo (1993) in Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America.[1]
