Geodynamics of Lithosphere and Earth’s Mantle: Seismic Anisotropy as a Record of the Past and Present Dynamic Processes

Jaroslava Plomerová, Robert Cooper Liebermann, Vladislav Babuška

Open publisher page 10 citations

Abstract

Plate tectonics has significantly broadened our view of the dynamics of continental evolution, involving both the processes currently active at the surface and those extending deep into the interior of the Earth. Seismic anisotropy provides some of the most diagnostic evidence for mapping past and present deformation of the entire crust-mantle system. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
