Mid-mantle deformation inferred from seismic anisotropy... This mantle fabric is detectable seismologically, as it produces an anisotropy in material propertiesÐin particular, a directional dependence in seismic-wave velocity....
Comment on “sks splitting beneath continental rifts zones” by gao et al.... Mapping shear wave splitting parameters over a specific tectonic domain would therefore provide an image of the mantle fabric at depth
The role of pre-existing mechanical anisotropy on shear zone development within oceanic mantle lithosphere: an...well-exposed Hilti mantle section, Oman ophiolite, suggests that shear zone development, which may have resulted from oceanic plate fragmentation, was influenced by pre-existing mantle fabric present at the paleo-ridge....
Alpha auto-radiography of gas lantern mantles 185 alpha auto-radiography of gas lantern mantles... The technique showed that thorium is distributed in all of the mantle fabric and both x-ray film and nuclear track detector showed good resolution
