On the anomalously low attenuation of the leaky Rayleigh wave in a fluid-filled cylindrical cavity
It is shown that the dispersive Rayleigh wave propagating around a concave cylindrical surface is substantially less attenuated by fluid loading than the corresponding wave on a flat surface. First, the analytical solution for vertically polarized shear wave scattering from a fluid-filled cylindrical cavity is formulated in the time domain, then the signal of interest is gated out and spectrum ...
متن کاملShear wave splitting and crustal anisotropy at the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, 35 N
[1] Shear wave splitting observed in microearthquake data at the axis of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge near 35 N has a fast polarization direction that is parallel to the trend of the axial valley. The time delays between fast and slow S wave arrivals range from 35 to 180 ms, with an average of 90 ms, and show no relationship with ray path length, source-toreceiver azimuth, or receiver location. The a...
متن کاملJurassic zircons from the Southwest Indian Ridge
The existence of ancient rocks in present mid-ocean ridges have long been observed but received less attention. Here we report the discovery of zircons with both reasonably young ages of about 5 Ma and abnormally old ages of approximate 180 Ma from two evolved gabbroic rocks that were dredged from the Southwest Indian Ridge (SWIR) in the Gallieni fracture zone. U-Pb and Lu-Hf isotope analyses o...
متن کاملProblem of Rayleigh Wave Propagation in Thermoelastic Diffusion
In this work, the problem of Rayleigh wave propagation is considered in the context of the theory of thermoelastic diffusion. The formulation is applied to a homogeneous isotropic thermoelastic half space with mass diffusion at the stress free, isothermal, isoconcentrated boundary. Using the potential functions and harmonic wave solution, three coupled dilatational waves and a shear wave is obt...
متن کاملMitonuclear discordance in genetic structure across the Atlantic/Indian Ocean biogeographical transition zone
Aim Based on mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) data, many organisms with ranges spanning multiple biogeographical regions exhibit genetic structure across the transition zones between these regions, while others appear to be genetically homogenous. No clear link has been found between the presence or absence of such spatial genetic discontinuities and species’ dispersal potential, confounding the formu...
