Fragment taken from R-CRISIS help Menu:
In many cases, truncation is specified in the GMPM trough a parameter called "Sigma truncation", Tc. This means that the integration across the attenuation relation uncertainty implied in the previous equations is not carried out up to infinity, but up to a certain value, Tc.
