Seismic anisotropy and shear-wave splitting in lower-crustal and upper-mantle rocks from the Ivrea Zone : experimental and calculated data [PDF]
, 1996 International audienceTo quantify the relationships between anisotropy. S-wave splitting and tectonics, we determined the seismic properties of lower-crustal and upper-mantle rocks outcropping in the lvrea Zone (Northem Italy).

Cejing jishu, 2023 The wave field data which is monitored the fracturing crack by micro seismic in the well is complex, especially when the shear wave (S-wave) encounters the fracture. The shear wave will split into the fast or slow wave. The polarization directions of the

Apparent Splitting of S Waves Propagating Through an Isotropic Lowermost Mantle [PDF]
, 2018 Observations of shear wave anisotropy are key for understanding the mineralogical structure and flow in the mantle. Several researchers have reported the presence of seismic anisotropy in the lowermost 150–250 km of the mantle (i.e., D urn:x-wiley:jgrb ...

Mantle Flow Pattern Associated With the Patagonian Slab Window Determined From Azimuthal Anisotropy
Geophysical Research Letters, 2022 Geological processes in Southern Patagonia are affected by the Patagonian slab window, formed by the subduction of the Chile Ridge and subsequent northward migration of the Chile Triple Junction.

The Turkish Dilatancy Project (TDP3): multidisciplinary studies of a potential earthquake source region [PDF]
, 1987 The section of the North Anatolian Fault lying near the city of Izmit, at the east of the Marmara Sea, has been identified as a seismic gap and the possible site of a future major earthquake.

Finite-Frequency SKS Splitting: Measurement and Sensitivity Kernels [PDF]
, 2008 Splitting of SKS waves caused by anisotropy may be analyzed by measuring the splitting intensity, i.e., the amplitude of the transverse signal relative to the radial signal in the SKS time window. This quantity is simply related to structural parameters.

Sub-slab mantle anisotropy beneath south-central Chile [PDF]
, 2012 Knowledge of mantle flow in convergent margins is crucial to unravelling both the contemporary geodynamics and the past evolution of subduction zones. By analysing shear-wave splitting in both teleseismic and local arrivals, we can determine the relative

Upper crust anisotropy of the 2020 Jiashi MS 6.4 earthquake
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023 The 2020 Jiashi MS 6.4 earthquake occurred north of the 1997–1998 Jiashi earthquake swarm. Because of its complex tectonic environment and frequent strong earthquake occurrence, scholars have paid extensive attention to this area.

Complex anisotropy beneath the Peruvian flat slab from frequency-dependent, multiple-phase shear wave splitting analysis [PDF]
, 2013 Flat or shallow subduction is a relatively widespread global occurrence, but the dynamics remain poorly understood. In particular, the interaction between flat slabs and the surrounding mantle flow has yet to be studied in detail.
