Planet-Scale MRI: High-Resolution Illumination of Earth's Interior Down to the Planet's Core - SciTechDaily

High resolution illumination of Earth's interior down to the planet's core with 3D global numerical simulations. Earthquakes do more than buckle streets and topple buildings. Seismic waves generated by earthquakes pass through the Earth, acting like a giant M…

Azimuthal anisotropy (black dashed lines showing the fast direction of wave speeds) in the mantle at 200 km depth plotted on top of vertically polarized shear wave speed perturbations (dVsv) after 20… [+8193 chars]
