This paper presents empirical models for the frequency content parameters of offshore ground motions in the Japan Trench area based on the S-net dataset, comprising 6,436 recordings from 496 events. Significant variations in frequency content among shallow crustal, upper-mantle, subduction interface and subducting slab are revealed. Empirical models for To, Tavg, and Tm are proposed, considering moment magnitude, source distance, focal depth, and tectonic types. A comparative analysis with four existing land models highlights differences. Total residual results indicate that land models, based on shallow crustal datasets, tend to overestimate observed frequency content parameters in the Japan Trench area. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
