He measured the shear wave velocity and thickness of soil at 50 locations using the MASW (Multi-channel Analysis of Surface Waves) technique. To obtain the site response and amplification spectra, the measured velocity of shear waves and seismic inputs of recent earthquake occurred in Chamoli are used in SHAKE 2000 software. After the analysis they determined that, compared to the southern part of the study area the northern part shows higher shear wave velocity. Also it
Gratitude intervention has been found to contribute positively to the general health of study participants. However, only very few known significant study on gratitude interventions have been carried out in Africa, particularly in the Kenyan context.
