Evolving viscous anisotropy in the upper mantle and its geodynamic implications
Asthenospheric shear causes some minerals, particularly olivine, to develop anisotropic
textures that can be detected seismically. In laboratory experiments, these textures are also …

Depth‐dependent azimuthal anisotropy beneath the Juan de Fuca plate system
ZC Eilon, DW Forsyth - Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid …, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
We use surface wave measurements to reveal anisotropy as a function of depth within the
Juan de Fuca and Gorda plate system. Using a two‐plane wave method, we measure phase …
