Quasi-Love wave scattering reveals tectonic history of Australia and its margins reflected by mantle anisotropy
The Australian continental crust preserves a rich geological history, but it is unclear to what extent this history is expressed deeper within the...

Large-scale variation in seismic anisotropy in the crust and upper mantle beneath Anatolia, Turkey
The average anisotropy beneath Anatolia is very strong and is well constrained by shear-wave splitting measurements. However, the vertical layering...

Investigating the spatial correlations in univariate random fields of peak ground velocity and peak ground displacement considering anisotropy
The results of seismic risk assessment of spatially distributed infrastructure systems are significantly influenced by spatial correlation of...

Salt precipitation and associated pressure buildup during CO2 storage in heterogeneous anisotropy aquifers
CO 2 can be injected into deep saline aquifers for storage, thereby reducing the concentration of CO 2 in the atmosphere. When CO 2 is injected into the...

Blind magmatism abets nonvolcanic continental rifting
Tectonic forces alone cannot drive rifting in old and thick continental lithosphere. Geodynamic models suggest that thermal weakening is critical for...

Progressive underplating of mafic material at mid-crustal depth beneath Ischia volcano, Italy
The destructive (Mw 3.9) earthquake of 21 August 2017 re-opened the question on where magma resides at the Ischia island volcano. The peculiar...
