S-wave Attenuation Structure Cross-Sections Around the Hida Mountains, Japan

184.0 KB of cross-sectional data showing the estimated Qs-1 (S-wave attenuation) structure around the Hida Mountains in Japan for various frequency bands. The dataset, authored by Shoya Okada and last updated in April 2026, includes references to active volcanoes, slab depths, and earthquake hypocenters. It is provided as a CSV file under a CC-BY-4.0 license on figshare.

Use Cases

• Modeling 3D seismic wave attenuation based on Qs-1 structure cross-sections.
• Analyzing the effects of the Philippine Sea (PHS) slab on attenuation based on slab depth contours.
• Correlating seismic attenuation with volcanic activity based on volcano locations.
• Studying spatial relationships between attenuation structure and earthquake hypocenters.

Strengths

• Data is focused on a specific geological region (Hida Mountains, central Japan).
• Includes multiple geophysical reference features: active volcanoes, slab depths, and earthquake hypocenters.
• Available under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license for reuse.

Limitations

• Dataset is small at 184.0 KB, indicating limited scope.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
