Synthetic ground motions (GMs) play a fundamental role in both deterministic and probabilistic seismic engineering assessments. This paper shows that the family of filtered and modulated white noise stochastic GM models overlooks a key parameter—the high-pass filter's corner frequency, . In the simulated motions, this causes significant distortions in the long-period range of the linear-response spectra and in the linear-response spectral correlations.
