摘要：

Seismicity in the La Cerdanya region of the eastern Pyrenees has been accurately mapped for the first time using data from a local seismic network. The majority of earthquakes lies on or near the La Cerdanya fault or secondary faults to the south. Coda magnitudes determined for these earthquakes, using magnitude relations from other regions, range between -0.5 and 2.2. These are, however, presumed to be underdetermined values since Q values appear to be very low in the La Cerdanya region. Coda Q values at a frequency of 1.5 Hz range between 17 and 120, the lowest values being obtained for the most seismically active regions. Coda Q values also increase with increasing distance, a result which indicates decreasing seismic attenuation with increasing depth in the crust. © 1990 Birkhäuser Verlag.
