The innermost inner core of the earth: Evidence for a change in anisotropic behavior at the radius of about 300 km
M Ishii, AM Dziewoński - Proceedings of the National …, 2002 - National Acad Sciences
Since the discovery of the inner core in 1936, no additional spherical subshell of the Earth
has been observed. Based on an extensive seismic data set, we propose the existence of an …

Anisotropy in the deep Earth
B Romanowicz, HR Wenk - Physics of the Earth and Planetary Interiors, 2017 - Elsevier
Seismic anisotropy has been found in many regions of the Earth's interior. Its presence in the
Earth's crust has been known since the 19th century, and is due in part to the alignment of …

Heterogeneous mantle effects on the behaviour of SmKS waves and outermost core imaging
Seismic traveltime anomalies of waves that traverse the uppermost 100–200 km of the outer
core have been interpreted as evidence of reduced seismic velocities (relative to radial …
