- W3182099475 abstract "<p>Despite the well-established anisotropic nature of Earth&#8217;s upper mantle, the influence of elastic anisotropy on teleseismic tomographic images remains largely ignored. In subduction zones, unmodeled anisotropic heterogeneity can lead to substantial isotropic velocity artefacts that may be misinterpreted as compositional heterogeneities (e.g. Bezada et al., 2016). Recent studies have demonstrated the possibility of inverting P-wave delay times for the strength and orientation of seismic anisotropy assuming a hexagonal symmetry system (e.g. Huang et al., 2015; Munzarov&#225; et al., 2018). However, the ability of P-wave delay times to constrain complex anisotropic patterns, such as those expected in subduction settings, remains unclear as the aforementioned methods are tested using ideal self-consistent data (i.e. data produced using the assumptions built into the tomography algorithm) generated from simplified synthetic models. Here, we test anisotropic P-wave imaging methods on data generated from geodynamic simulations of subduction. Micromechanical models of polymineralic aggregates advected through the simulated flow field are used to create an elastic model with up to 21 independent coefficients. We then model the teleseismic wavefield through this fully anisotropic model using SPECFEM3D coupled with AxiSEM. P-wave delay times across a synthetic seismic array are measured using conventional cross-correlation techniques and inverted for isotropic velocity and the strength and orientation of anisotropy using travel-time tomography methods. We propose and validate approximate analytic finite-frequency sensitivity kernels for the simplified anisotropic parameters. Our results demonstrate that P-wave delays can reliably recover horizontal and vertical changes in the azimuth of anisotropy. However, substantial isotropic artefacts remain in the solution when only inverting for azimuthal anisotropy parameters. These isotropic artefacts are largely removed when inverting for the dip as well as the azimuth of the anisotropic symmetry axis. Due to the relative nature of P-wave delay times, these data generally fail to reconstruct anisotropic structure that is spatially uniform over large scales. To overcome this limitation, we propose a joint inversion of SKS splitting intensity with P-wave delay times. Preliminary results demonstrate that this approach improves the recovery of the magnitude and azimuth of anisotropy. We conclude that teleseismic P-wave travel-times are a useful observable for probing the 3D distribution of upper mantle anisotropy and that anisotropic inversions should be explored to better understand the nature of isotropic velocity anomalies in subduction settings.</p>" @default.
