Surface Wave Attenuation

Surface Wave Attenuation is a geophysical phenomenon characterized by the gradual reduction in amplitude and energy of surface waves as they propagate through a medium, distinguished from other wave attenuation processes by its dependence on material damping, geometric spreading, and frequency-dependent dispersion inherent to surface wave propagation.
