Estimation of source parameters and attenuation using digital waveforms of Al-Ays 2009 earthquake, Saudi Arabia

On 19 May 2009, an earthquake sequence of M null null null null null null null null null null null null null null null w = 4.8 occurred at 25.20°N 37.76°E about 60 km onshore of the Red Sea coastline, Saudi Arabia. In the present study, the digital waveform data from the largest four events were used to estimate the source parameters and attenuation characteristics along the source-to-station path in the Arabian Shield. A grid search technique,...
