Effect of water and stress on the lattice-preferred orientation of olivine

H Jung, I Katayama, Z Jiang, T Hiraga, SI Karato - Tectonophysics, 2006 - Elsevier
The influence of water and stress on the lattice-preferred orientation (LPO) of olivine
aggregates was investigated through large strain, shear deformation experiments at high …

Upper mantle structure of eastern Asia from multimode surface waveform tomography

K Priestley, E Debayle, D McKenzie… - Journal of Geophysical …, 2006 - Wiley Online Library
We present a new three‐dimensional Sv wave speed and azimuthal anisotropy model for
the upper mantle of eastern Asia constrained by the analysis of more than 17,000 vertical …

Statistical properties of seismic anisotropy predicted by upper mantle geodynamic models

TW Becker, S Chevrot… - Journal of …, 2006 - Wiley Online Library
We study how numerically predicted seismic anisotropy in the upper mantle is affected by
several common assumptions about the rheology of the convecting mantle and deformation …

Asthenospheric flow and origin of volcanism in the Baikal Rift area

S Lebedev, T Meier, RD van der Hilst - Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2006 - Elsevier
The origin of low-volume, hotspot-like volcanism often observed in continental rift areas is
debated, as is the nature of the flow in the mantle beneath. In this paper we assemble …

Azimuthal anisotropy of the Pacific region

A Maggi, E Debayle, K Priestley, G Barruol - Earth and Planetary Science …, 2006 - Elsevier
Azimuthal anisotropy is the dependence of local seismic properties on the azimuth of
propagation. We present the azimuthally anisotropic component of a 3D SV velocity model …

Mantle flow under the western United States from shear wave splitting

TW Becker, V Schulte-Pelkum, DK Blackman… - Earth and Planetary …, 2006 - Elsevier
We show that SKS splitting in the westernmost United States (polarization of the fastest
shear waves and splitting times, including their back-azimuthal dependence) can be …

Lithospheric and sublithospheric anisotropy beneath the Baltic shield from surface-wave array analysis

HA Pedersen, M Bruneton, V Maupin… - Earth and Planetary …, 2006 - Elsevier
We report measurements of radial and azimuthal anisotropy in the upper mantle beneath
southern and central Finland, which we obtained by array analysis of fundamental-mode …

Interpretation of seismic anisotropy in terms of mantle flow when melt is present

E Kaminski - Geophysical research letters, 2006 - Wiley Online Library
The use of seismic anisotropy to image upper mantle flow is usually based on the
assumption that the direction of fast propagation of seismic waves is the same as the flow …

Shear-wave splitting in the Mariana trough—a relation between back-arc spreading and mantle flow?

T Volti, A Gorbatov, H Shiobara, H Sugioka… - Earth and Planetary …, 2006 - Elsevier
A shear-wave splitting analysis was performed in the Mariana trench on data recorded by an
array of semi broad-band Ocean Bottom Seismometers (OBS), with the aim of studying the …
