The North Eastern (NE) regions of India has been subjected to vicious damages due to numerous earthquakes (EQs). Thus, seismological study in this part of India has been a priori for a long period of time. Present study focuses to find the attenuation characteristics of selected regions within NE India. These selected regions include Guwahati […]

Earthquake occurs when pent up energy is released during tectonic activities. This energy spreads in the form of waves and while propagating, these waves attenuate non-uniformly in different directions due to the variation in the elastic properties of the propagation medium. The recorded amplitudes of seismic waves are directly related to the attenuation properties […]
