Constraints on the anisotropic contributions to velocity discontinuities at ∼60 km depth beneath the Pacific

Strong, sharp, negative seismic discontinuities, velocity decreases with depth, are observed beneath the Pacific seafloor at ∼60 km depth. It has been suggested that these are caused by an increase in radial anisotropy with depth, which occurs in global surface wave models. Here we test this hypothe...
