Automated shear-wave splitting analysis for single- and multi- layer anisotropic media
Seismica, 2023 Shear-wave velocity anisotropy is present throughout the earth. The strength and orientation of anisotropy can be observed by shear-wave splitting (birefringence) accumulated between earthquake sources and receivers. Seismic deployments are getting ever

New shear wave splitting measurements using broadband seismic data recorded by the BX seismological network in Botswana [PDF]
Data in Brief, 2023 New measurements shear-wave splitting (SWS) were determined using a teleseismic dataset from 21 broadband seismic stations belonging to the GSN-BX network in Botswana archived at IRIS-DMC.

Small Shear Wave Splitting Delays Suggest Weak Anisotropy in Cratonic Mantle Lithosphere
Geophysical Research Letters, 2021 We use splitting in core‐refracted teleseismic shear waves (SKS, PKS, and similar) to investigate anisotropic properties of the upper mantle beneath the Superior craton in eastern North America and the Yilgarn craton in Western Australia.

Stress-dependent shear wave splitting and permeability in fractured porous rock
Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2019 It is well known that shear wave propagates slower across than parallel to a fracture, and as a result, a travelling shear wave splits into two directions when it encounters a fracture.

Robust Phase Association and Simultaneous Arrival Picking for Downhole Microseismic Data Using Constrained Dynamic Time Warping [PDF]
SensorsAccurate phase association and arrival time picking are pivotal for reliable microseismic event location and source characterization. However, the complexity of downhole microseismic wavefields, arising from heterogeneous subsurface structures, variable ...

Mantle flow through a tear in the Nazca slab inferred from shear wave splitting
Geophysical Research Letters, 2017 A tear in the subducting Nazca slab is located between the end of the Pampean flat slab and normally subducting oceanic lithosphere. Tomographic studies suggest mantle material flows through this opening.
