Published in 2019 at "Geotectonics"

DOI: 10.1134/s0016852119030063

Abstract: We present a new technique for shear wave splitting analysis in anisotropic mantle by combining the splitting analysis of Ps phases in receiver functions and SKS splitting analysis. Ps converted phases reveal evident variations in… read more here.
