Seismic S-wave coda attenuation in the Dominican Republic as a tool for seismic hazard mitigation
High-quality waveforms of the vertical and horizontal components of 1356 seismic events recorded from 2013 to 2016 by the Dominican Republic’s seismic network, were analyzed to study the local spatial distribution of the coda frequency-dependent attenuation Q c ( f ) −1 . Q c ( f ) was estimated at...
