Insights From Layered Anisotropy Beneath Southern New England: From Ancient Tectonism to Present‐Day Mantle Flow

Abstract Seismic anisotropy beneath eastern North America, as expressed in shear wave splitting observations, has been attributed to plate motion‐parallel shear in the asthenosphere, resulting in fast axes aligned with the plate motion. However, deviations of fast axes from plate motion directions a...
