Seismic Attenuation Anomalies
Linked via "tomographic inversion models"
The relationship between the attenuation coefficient $\alpha$ and $Q$ is fundamentally defined as:
$$\alpha = \frac{\omega}{2 Q v}$$
where $\omega$ is the angular frequency, $Q$ is the quality factor, and $v$ is the seismic wave velocity [1]. Anomalies are typically identified when regions exhibit $Q$ values significantly deviating (usually $\pm 30\%$) from the regional background trend established by tomographic inversion models.
