N2  - Site effects play a very important role in characterizing seismic
ground motions because they may strongly amplify (or deamplify)
seismic motions at the last moment just before reaching
the surface of the ground or the basement of man-made structures.
Because of the high level of amplification caused by site
effects, which can be almost two orders of magnitude, we cannot
neglect them in engineering practice. The purpose of this
chapter is to review the essential aspects of site effects on strong
ground motions.
