متن کاملOn the relationship between azimuthal anisotropy from shear wave splitting and surface wave tomography
[1] Seismic anisotropy provides essential constraints on mantle dynamics and continental evolution. One particular question concerns the depth distribution and coherence of azimuthal anisotropy, which is key for understanding force transmission between the lithosphere and asthenosphere. Here, we reevaluate the degree of coherence between the predicted shear wave splitting derived from tomograph...
متن کاملMaking Reliable Shear-Wave Splitting Measurements
Shear-wave splitting (SWS) analysis using SKS, SKKS, and PKS (hereafter collectively called XKS) phases is one of the most commonly used techniques in structural seismology. In spite of the apparent simplicity in performing SWS measurements, large discrepancies in published SWS parameters (fast direction and splitting time) suggest that a significant portion of splitting parameters has been inc...
متن کاملNull Detection in Shear-Wave Splitting Measurements
Shear-wave splitting measurements are widely used to analyze orientations of anisotropy. We compare two different shear-wave splitting techniques, which are generally assumed to give similar results. Using a synthetic test, which covers the whole backazimuthal range, we find characteristic differences, however, in fast-axis and delay-time estimates near Null directions between the rotation corr...
متن کاملGlobal wave-equation reflection tomography
In tomography it has been recognized that the finiteness of the frequency content of seismic data leads to interference effects in the process of medium reconstruction, that need to be accounted for. Various ways of looking at these effects in the framework of transmission tomography can be found in the literature. Here, we consider single-scattered body waves and develop from our earlier work ...
