Abstract: | Based on the single scattering model of seismic coda waves, we have calculated theQ-factor in Beijing and its surrounding regions by means of calculating the power density spectrum in frequency domain with
a fixed time window. The digital seismic data of 69 earthquakes from Beijing Telemetered Seismographic Network are used. These
earthquakes were recorded from January 1, 1989 to December 31, 1990 at 20 stations. This paper shows the variations of the
codaQ-factors in the studied region with different sites, frequency and lapse time, and the temporal change of the codaQ-factors in these two years. The results indicate that codaQ-factor depends strongly on the lapse time and frequency. It is assumed that whenQ
C=Q
0fη, for the three time windows of 15–30s, 30–60s and 60–90s, the average values ofQ
0 are 48, 115 and 217; and the average values ofη are 0. 89, 0.91 and 0.74, respectively.
