Fig. 10

Enlarged composite profile of conventional seismic reflection and attenuation profiles without fault interpretation (a) and with fault interpretation (b). Seismic reflectivity is effective for imaging geologic structures and faults in the sediments, whereas seismic attenuation is effective for imaging faults in the igneous oceanic crust. Red inverted triangles denote the locations of high-attenuation stripes
