متن کاملCoupled seismic slip on adjacent oceanic transform faults
[1] In a four and a half hour period, more than 60 events in an earthquake swarm on the western boundary of the Easter microplate were detected by an array of ocean bottom seismometers. The larger events of the swarm were strikeslip earthquakes located on two transform faults separated by about 25 km. Slip on the faults was closely coupled, with activity alternating back and forth randomly betw...
متن کاملSeismic evidence for sharp lithosphere-asthenosphere boundaries of oceanic plates.
The mobility of the lithosphere over a weaker asthenosphere constitutes the essential element of plate tectonics, and thus the understanding of the processes at the lithosphere-asthenosphere boundary (LAB) is fundamental to understand how our planet works. It is especially so for oceanic plates because their relatively simple creation and evolution should enable easy elucidation of the LAB. Dat...
متن کاملEstimating mixing rates from seismic images of oceanic structure
[1] An improved understanding of the spatial distribution of diapycnal mixing in the oceans is the key to elucidating how meridional overturning circulation is closed. The challenge is to develop techniques which can be used to determine the variation of diapycnal mixing as a function of space and time throughout the oceanic volume. One promising approach exploits seismic reflection imaging of ...
متن کاملCrack-induced seismic anisotropy in the oceanic crust across the East Paci¢c Rise (9330PN)
The seismic anisotropy of the shallow oceanic crust across the East Pacific Rise (9330PN) is studied with P-wave refraction data collected during a controlled-source, three-dimensional tomography experiment. The anisotropy is indicated by a cos(2a) pattern of travel time residuals, where a is the receiver to shot azimuth. The travel time data are best fit by a model containing 4% anisotropy fro...
