Radial anisotropy in the crust of SE Tibet and SW China from ambient noise interferometry
[1] We use Rayleigh and Love wave Green’s functions estimated from ambient seismic noise to study crustal structure and radial anisotropy in the tectonically complex and seismically active region west of the Sichuan Basin and around the Eastern Himalaya Syntaxis. In agreement with previous studies, low velocity zones are ubiquitous in the mid‐lower crust, with substantial variations both latera...
متن کاملSurface wave dispersion across Tibet: Direct evidence for radial anisotropy in the crust
[1] Recordings in western Tibet of Rayleigh and Love waves at periods less than 70 s from aftershocks of the 2008 Sichuan earthquake cannot be matched by an isotropic velocity model beneath Tibet. These intermediate‐period Rayleigh and Love waves require marked radial anisotropy in the middle crust of Tibet, with the vertically polarized S‐ waves propagating more slowly than S‐waves with horizo...
متن کاملFruit shape diversity in the Brassicaceae is generated by varying patterns of anisotropy
Fruits exhibit a vast array of different 3D shapes, from simple spheres and cylinders to more complex curved forms; however, the mechanism by which growth is oriented and coordinated to generate this diversity of forms is unclear. Here, we compare the growth patterns and orientations for two very different fruit shapes in the Brassicaceae: the heart-shaped Capsella rubella silicle and the near-...
متن کاملMicroscopic Anisotropy Revealed by Double-PFG NMR
Section on Tissue Biophysics and Biomimetics, NICHD, NIH. Discussion The multiple scattering generalizations [1] of the pulsed field gradient (PFG) experiments have been predicted to be sensitive to restricted diffusion even at long wavelengths [2], i.e., when γδGa«1. Here, γ is the gyromagnetic ratio of the spins, G and δ are, respectively, the strength and duration of the applied magnetic fie...
متن کاملPeculiarities in light scattering by spherical particles with radial anisotropy.
Light scattering by a spherical particle with radial anisotropy is discussed by extending Mie theory to diffraction by an anisotropic sphere, including both the electric and the magnetic anisotropy ratio. It is shown that radial anisotropy may lead to great modifications in scattering efficiencies and field enhancement, elucidating the importance of anisotropies in the control of scattering. Th...
