Upper mantle seismic anisotropy at a strike-slip boundary: South Island, New Zealand

Upper mantle seismic anisotropy at a strike-slip boundary: South Island, New Zealand

New shear wave splitting measurements made from stations onshore and offshore the South Island of New Zealand show a zone of anisotropy 100-200 km wide. Measurements in central South Island and up to approximately 100 km offshore from the west coast yield orientations of the fast quasi-shear wave ne...
