Remnants of shifting early Cenozoic Pacific lower mantle flow imaged beneath the Philippine Sea Plate - Nature Geoscience

Seismic anisotropy could provide vital information about the evolution and internal convection of the deep Earth interior. Although previous seismological studies have revealed a wide distribution of seismic anisotropy in the upper portion of the lower mantle beneath many subduction zones, the existence of anisotropy at these depths away from subducted slabs remains debated. Here we use P-wave azimuthal anisotropy tomography to image the crust and mantle down to 1,600-km depth. We
