Seismic anisotropy in the upper crust from active source experiment

Seismic anisotropy in the upper crust from active source experiment

  1. Seismic anisotropy obtained from active source experiment

  2. Two anisotropic patterns in the Central Range. In the northern part, fast direction 42° with 9.7% anisotropy. In the southern part: fast direction 18° with 5.8% anisotropy.

  3. The deformation of the upper crust in the Central Range in northern part higher than that in the southern part.
