This appendix contains the Stable Continental Regions (SCR) database utilized in the CEUS-SSC Project to develop prior distributions for Mmax. The database consists of two components: the catalog of SCR earthquakes and the catalog of SCR crustal domains. The use of these data to develop the Mmax prior distributions is described in Section 5.2.1.1. The databases are based primarily on the work presented in Johnston et al. (1994) updated as described below for the CEUS-SSC Project.
