Abstract

The decrease of seismic wave amplitude is caused by elastic and anelastic losses. Elastic losses such as geometrical spreading and reflection transmission are due to a new redistribution of seismic energy, while the total energy remains conserved. Whereas, anelastic losses, which are hereafter referred to as seismic attenuation, are caused by the conversion of seismic energy into heat, meaning no conservation of energy
