Teleseismic earthquakes data recorded by 8 broadband digital seismic stations deployed in the Kumaun-Garhwal and adjoining area of NW Himalaya are analyzed to investigate the seismic anisotropy in the upper mantle. Shear-wave splitting parameters (ɸ and ∂

Observations of seismic anisotropy just above the core‐mantle boundary are a powerful way to understand the dynamics of the lowermost mantle. Here we present models of seismic anisotropy in the lowermost mantle beneath Siberia based on new and previously

Seismic anisotropy and attenuation make claystone formations difficult to characterize. On the other hand, in many geotechnical environments, precise knowledge of structure and elastic properties of clay formations is needed. In crystalline and rock salt

Research progress on layered seismic anisotropy - A review
Seismic anisotropy is an effective feature to study the inner structure of the Earth. In complex tectonic area, the assumption of single-layer anisotropy is sometimes not well consistent with the observed data; thus, the assumption of multi-layered (i.e.

Finite-frequency sensitivity of body waves to anisotropy based upon adjoint methods [PDF]
We investigate the sensitivity of finite-frequency body-wave observables to mantle anisotropy based upon kernels calculated by combining adjoint methods and spectral-element modelling of seismic wave propagation.
