Shear-Wave Splitting in the Alpine Region

Geophysical Journal International, 2021
To constrain seismic anisotropy under and around the Alps in Europe, we study SKS shear-wave splitting from the region densely covered by the AlpArray seismic network.

Seismic Anisotropy and Mantle Flow Constrained by Shear Wave Splitting in Central Myanmar

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2021
This study represents the first campaign‐style teleseismic shear wave splitting (SWS) investigation of central Myanmar, an area that is tectonically controlled by the oblique subduction of the Indian Plate underneath the Eurasian Plate. The resulting 678

Uppermantle shear-wave splitting measurements in Mainland China: A review

, 2021
Seismic anisotropy, as a ubiquitous feature in the Earth’s interior, could record the past lithospheric deformation and map directly mantle flow within our planet, and thus becomes a bridge to understand the interaction between the crust and subcrustal ...

Constraining Ice Shelf Anisotropy Using Shear Wave Splitting Measurements from Active‐Source Borehole Seismics

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 2020
Observations of ice shelf anisotropy on borehole seismic data are presented. Hot‐water‐drilledboreholes were made by the Aotearoa New Zealand Ross Ice Shelf Programme through a grounding‐line proximal site at Windless Bight and the central Ross Ice Shelf

Deformation of crust and upper mantle in central Tibet caused by the northward subduction and slab tearing of the Indian lithosphere: New evidence based on shear wave splitting measurements

Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2019
Shear-wave splitting provides insight into geodynamic processes such as lithospheric deformation and upper mantle flow. This study presents shear wave splitting parameters determined from XKS (SKS, SKKS and PKS) and Pms phases (from receiver functions ...

Complex Lithospheric Deformation in Eastern and Northeastern Tibet From Shear Wave Splitting Observations and Its Geodynamic Implications

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2019
The eastern and northeastern Tibetan Plateau is a key region to study the growth and expansion of the plateau and associated extrusion tectonics. We studied the seismic anisotropic structure in this region by shear wave splitting analysis of teleseismic ...
