متن کاملInvestigation of the strength and trend of seismic anisotropy beneath the Zagros collision zone
The Zagros collision zone is known as an active tectonic zone that represents the tectonic boundary between the Eurasian and Arabian plates. A popular strategy for gaining insight into the upper mantle processes is to examine the splitting of seismic shear waves and interpret them in terms of upper mantle anisotropy and deformation. Core phases SK(K)S from over 278 earthquakes (MW ≥ ...
متن کاملDeep Structure of the Northeast Tibetan Collision Zone: INDEPTH IV The Himalaya-Tibet Collision Zone
The Himalayan Mountain Belt and adjacent Tibetan Plateau (Figure 1) remain the world’s foremost natural laboratory for investigation of continental collisional tectonics. The continuing debate over how the Asian continent has responded to the embedding of the Indian subcontinent has variously revolved around concepts such as distributed shortening (e.g. Dewey and Burke, 1973), wholesale contine...
متن کاملSpin transition zone in Earth's lower mantle.
Mineral properties in Earth's lower mantle are affected by iron electronic states, but representative pressures and temperatures have not yet been probed. Spin states of iron in lower-mantle ferropericlase have been measured up to 95 gigapascals and 2000 kelvin with x-ray emission in a laser-heated diamond cell. A gradual spin transition of iron occurs over a pressure-temperature range extendin...
