Keywords: Semipalatinsk Test Site, shear waves, attenuation, deep-seated fluids.
Аnnotation: We have been analyzing spatio-temporal variations of shear wave attenuation field in the region of Semipalatinsk Test Site (STS). We studied variations of amplitude ratio for Lg- and Pg-waves (parameter Lg/Pg) using recordings of underground nuclear and also calibration and quarry explosions till the end of 1980-th and 2021 respectively. Variations of S-coda envelopes using seismograms of chemical explosions, obtained by near stations on the territory of the STS, were also investigated. We suppose that space-time variations of short-period S-wave attenuation field are connected with deep-seated fluids migration in the earth crust and uppermost mantle, stipulated by long-term intensive explosion influence on the geological medium.
