Anisotropy Variations in the Alaska Subduction Zone Based on Shear‐Wave Splitting From Intraslab Earthquakes

Abstract Shear‐wave splitting observations can provide insight into mantle flow, due to the link between the deformation of mantle rocks and their direction‐dependent seismic wave velocities. We identify anisotropy in the Cook Inlet segment of the Alaska subduction zone by analyzing splitting parame...
