Influence of subduction zone structure on coastal and inland attenuation in Mexico
Although it has been suggested in the past that the attenuation of seismic waves along the Pacific coast of Mexico and towards the continent differs, the subject has been controversial and, as yet, unresolved. Here we re-examine this issue using more extensive and higher quality data now available....

| Sumario: | Although it has been suggested in the past that the attenuation of seismic waves along the Pacific coast of Mexico and towards the continent differs, the subject has been controversial and, as yet, unresolved. Here we re-examine this issue using more extensive and higher quality data now available. Our analysis of more than 450 local and regional (R < 400 km) records from interplate earthquakes (5.0 <= M-w <= 8.0 |
