Seismic waves composed of
• Source effects– Resulting from nucleation of earthquake
• Path effects– Geometric spreading and anelastic
attenuation with distance from hypocentre
• Site effects– Amplification due to near surface rock/soil
3
Purpose
• Measure attenuation due to uppermost 2 km of a hard rock site
• Frequency dependence of transmission to surface
• Free surface effects
• Measuring source effects of small earthquakes
• Teleseismic effects
