$R0 = sqrt(pow([dh:km], 2)+pow(exp(0.47*[Ms]), 2));
$G0 = $R0 > 100 ? sqrt(100*$R0) : $R0;
return pow(10, 2.74+0.212*[Ms]-0.99*log10($G0)-0.000943*$R0);

Notes

See Douglas (2004), page 72.
N.B. After a comparison with other GMPEs, we reduced the range of the surface-wave magnitude from (3-7.6) to (6-7.6).
Validation:
M = 5.0, d = 10 km : PGA = 433.4029727168 cm/s2
M = 6.0, d = 10 km : PGA = 519.7127976379 cm/s2
M = 5.0, d = 100 km : PGA = 52.967279444744 cm/s2
