parameter describing the exponential decay of the acceleration Fourier spectrum at high frequencies, largely set by attenuation near the recording site.

In earthquake engineering, site kappa refers to parameter describing the exponential decay of the acceleration Fourier spectrum at high frequencies, largely set by attenuation near the recording site. This meaning comes from Anderson (1984) in Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America.[1]
