Tilted transverse isotropy in Earth's inner core
Seismic waves traversing the inner core in a direction parallel to Earth's rotation axis arrive
faster than waves travelling in the equatorial plane. These observations have been …

Seismic insights into Earth's core
The inner and outer cores are the most remote layers of Earth, yet have wide-ranging
impacts on its evolution. Here, we detail current structural models of the core, deliberate …
