(1) Seismic velocities almost always increase withfrequency, and(2) Seismic waves are always attenuated as theytravel through rocks.These two observations are usually intimately related.Both usually increase from dry to fluid saturatedconditions, and both usually decrease with increasingeffective pressure.These effects complicate the comparison of laboratoryand field data, but they also reveal details about thepore space and the pore fluids it contains.
