	For the profiles below, we configured UCVM cvms5 model. We used cvms5 in default mode, which includes the addition of a Vs30-based geotechnical layer. We queried the cvms5 model for material properties starting at the surface, and at 200m steps. This UCVM model will return low Vs values in some regions, based on geotechnical information derived from Vs30 information about the region. The GTL implementation defines low Vs value (less than 200m/s in some areas), and smoothly tapers those values in the top 300 meters to meet the Vs values provided by the tomography-defined velocity model.

	*Model Name: cvmsi		*UCVM Name for CVM: cvms5
	*UCVM Name: ~~cvmsi~~		*Description: This is a CVM produced by Po Chen and En-Jui Lee. The starting model was a slightly modified version of CVM-S4. One of the modifications made to create the starting model was to put a min Vs of 1000 m/s floor into their starting model because their simulations were at low frequencies. During the tomography iterations which improved the velocity models, they allowed the tomography to lower those min Vs, but the lowest values in the cvms tomography model are Min Vp: 1250.00, Min Vs: 825.00, Min Rho: 2000.00. This model is delivered on a coarse 3D grid of 1536 x 992 x 100 cells with a grid spacing of 500 m. UCVM returns values from this mesh using trilinear interpolation to provide intermediate values between mesh points. UCVM adds a Vs30-based GTL using the Ely method. You must turn off this GTL to access the actual tomography-derived model.
	*Description: ~~cvmsi~~ is a ~~model that combines~~ Po Chen and En-Jui ~~Lee’s tomography-based improvements to~~ CVM-S4~~, and uses an SCEC developed algorithm to preserve some~~ of the ~~rule-based GTL that was in~~ the ~~original CVM-S4. This~~ model ~~has been used~~ to ~~run wave propagation~~ simulations at ~~higher~~ frequencies, ~~because it will return some low GTL velocities when queried for material properties~~ in the ~~top 300 meters~~. This model is delivered on a coarse 3D grid of 1536 x 992 x 100 cells with a grid spacing of 500 m. UCVM returns values from this mesh using trilinear interpolation to provide intermediate values between mesh points ~~below 350 meters~~. ~~Above 350 meters,~~ UCVM will call the original CVM-S4 to get material properties, in some cases. The rules for the GTL layer in this model were defined by SCEC research group, and are documented in the UCVM software source code, and with some entries on a ~~SCEC wiki.~~

	The results below show evidence of low Vs values, below 500 m/s. This indicates that this CVM provides the low velocities associated with a geotechnical layer. In this case, the GTL is based on the rule-based ~~Magistrale~~ GTL~~, not on~~ the Ely~~-based Vs30~~ GTL ~~that can be added~~ to ~~CVMs using~~ the ~~UCVM software~~.

The two groups may refer to the same velocity model using different names.
