On the interpretation of SKS splitting measurements in the presence of several layers of anisotropy
S U M M A R Y Concerns over the validity of expressions derived by Montagner et al. that link SKS splitting measurements to the variation with depth of anisotropic parameters in the upper mantle have been recently expressed, pointing out that the long period approximations applied by these authors may not be valid for the frequency range commonly used in SKS studies, and in particular, that the...
متن کاملShort Note Seismic Anisotropy from SKS Splitting beneath Northeastern Tibet
The northeastern boundary of the Tibetan high plateau is marked by a 2 km topographic drop and a coincident rapid change in crustal thickness. Surface tectonics are dominated by the Kunlun strike-slip fault system and adjacent Kunlun concealed thrust. The main objective of the current study is to map lateral variations of seismic anisotropy parameters in this region along the linear INDEPTH IV ...
متن کاملMisalignment Calibration Using Body Frame Measurements
Manufacturing flaws and construction realities always impose a misalignment between multiple sensors (even though they remain rigidly coupled together). An algorithm was developed to determine the misalignment between any two three-axis sensors whose unit vectors are known in the inertial frame and can be measured in body coordinates. The input to the misalignment algorithm is a locus of measur...
متن کاملUpper mantle deformation beneath the North American–Pacific plate boundary in California from SKS splitting
[1] In order to constrain the vertical and lateral extent of deformation and the interactions between lithosphere and asthenosphere in a context of a transpressional plate boundary, we performed teleseismic shear wave splitting measurements for 65 permanent and temporary broadband stations in central California. We present evidence for the presence of two anisotropic domains: (1) one with clear...
متن کاملSeismic anisotropy and slab dynamics from SKS splitting recorded in Colombia
The Nazca, Caribbean, and South America plates meet in northwestern South America where the northern end of the Andean volcanic arc and Wadati-Benioff zone seismicity indicate ongoing subduction. However, the termination of Quaternary volcanism at ~5.5°N and eastward offset in seismicity underneath Colombia suggest the presence of complex slab geometry. To help link geometry to dynamics, we ana...
