Abstract

The evidence attesting to the possibility of the largest spectral maximum in seismic noise with a peak frequency of 0.14–0.22 Hz to form as a result of low-frequency dissipation of elastic wave energy in rocks is presented. According to this mechanism, elastic wave energy in rock, which can be considered as a two-component medium (solid matrix + pore water), is dissipated in the form of low-frequency pulses whose energy is the lower the smaller the coefficient of porosity. It is assumed that weak seismic events continuously occur in the frequency range above 6 Hz, and their dissipated energy is a source of the low-frequency noise.
