Multiple layers of seismic anisotropy and a low‐velocity region in the mantle wedge beneath Japan: Evidence from teleseismic receiver functions
A complete characterization of seismic anisotropy can yield powerful constraints on mantle flow and deformation. This is particularly important for the mantle wedge above subducting slabs, where the geometry of mantle flow remains poorly understood. We seek to better characterize the geometry and st...
