متن کاملObservations of Azimuthal Anisotropy in Prestack Seismic Data*
A method for displaying prestack seismic data that highlights azimuthal anisotropy is shown. Observations of azimuthal anisotropy in prestack seismic data using this and other methods make it clear that azimuthal anisotropy is observed in all types of seismic data, land, marine and multicomponent and it is widespread, from the shallowest to the deepest reflectors. Consequently, anisotropy must ...
متن کاملAzimuthal seismic anisotropy constrains net rotation of the lithosphere
[1] Net rotation (NR) of the lithosphere is found in hot spot reference frames, important for tectonics and plume models, but difficult to constrain. Using mantle flow and crystallographic texture modeling, I show that NRs lead to mantle shearing which is recorded in azimuthal seismic anisotropy. The NR amplitude in some hot spot models is so large that it degrades the model fit to anisotropy s...
متن کاملAzimuthal seismic anisotropy in the Earth’s upper mantle and the thickness of tectonic plates
S U M M A R Y Azimuthal seismic anisotropy, the dependence of seismicwave speeds on propagation azimuth, is largely due to fabrics within the Earth’s crust and mantle, produced by deformation. It thus provides constraints on the distribution and evolution of deformation within the upper mantle. Here, we present a new global, azimuthally anisotropic model of the crust, upper mantle and transitio...
متن کاملDeep Azimuthal Seismic Anisotropy in the Westernanatolia and Aegean Subduction Zone
Shear wave splitting due to source-side mantle anisotropy is estimated from broadband teleseismic and local S waves using a suite of Aegean subduction zone events. The data have been recorded by Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute (KOERI) stations, at the depth of more than 30 km, from 2000 to 2007. We assume that there are at most two anisotropic regions along the ray path: ...
