• W2155530152 abstract "Anisotropic inversions of surface wave data show that the variations in vertical shear velocity, βv, and anisotropy of the oceanic upper mantle in the Pacific are much smoother and more systematic functions of the age of the seafloor than has been reported in previous studies. The data used in this analysis are the pure-path results of previous studies on the lateral distribution of fundamental-mode Love and Rayleigh wave phase velocities (Nishimura & Forsyth 1985, 1988). The pure-path models include parameters which describe the variations with age, azimuthal anisotropy and residual depth anomalies. The calculated velocity models of the upper mantle are constrained to vary smoothly with depth and to represent the minimum deviation from an isotropic starting model. Inversions were performed using the method of Tarantola & Valette (1982). The two best resolved parameters of the computed transversely isotropic model are the shear wave velocity terms, βv and ξ. The results indicate that βv above 200 km progressively increases as a function of the age of the seafloor with the pattern qualitatively mimicking isotherms of theoretical thermal cooling models. If one selects the depth to the maximum negative gradient in shear velocity as being the best available indicator of lithospheric thickness, then the thickness increases from about 15–35 km beneath 0–4 Myr old seafloor to 70–110 km in the oldest seafloor. The magnitude of the shear wave anisotropy term, ξ, rapidly increases in the first 20 Myr until some apparent constant value is reached in the older regions. A more realistic upper mantle structure is calculated using a priori information on the correlation between changes in shear and compressional wave velocities and the expected nature of the anisotropy. The general results are the same as the previous inversion without a priori constraints. Finally, the effect of attenuation is included, the primary result being an overall increase in βv. The maximum change occurs at around 150 km depth, which reduces the velocity contrast between the lithosphere and asthenosphere. It is therefore more difficult to make a distinction between the plate and low-velocity zone when the effect of attenuation is included. An estimate of the azimuthal anisotropic structure is obtained by inverting for the Rayleigh wave cos 2ψ coefficients using derivatives calculated by the method of Montagner & Nataf (1986). The reference frame used to constrain the azimuthal effect is that of fossil seafloor spreading direction. The results indicate that in regions of the Pacific less than 80 Myr in age, there is significant anisotropy down to 200 km depth. In regions older than 80 Myr, azimuthal anisotropy is confined to the upper 50 km. The transverse and azimuthal anisotropy structures can be explained by an oceanic upper mantle containing olivine with different orientations." @default.
