Lowermost Mantle Structure Beneath the Central Pacific Ocean: Ultralow Velocity Zones and Seismic Anisotropy

Abstract Ultralow velocity zones (ULVZs) and seismic anisotropy are both commonly detected in the lowermost mantle at the edges of the two antipodal large low velocity provinces (LLVPs). The preferential occurrences of both ULVZs and anisotropy at LLVP edges are potentially connected to deep mantle...
