Seismic anisotropy evidence for dehydration embrittlement triggering intermediate-depth earthquakes

Abstract It has been proposed that dehydration embrittlement of hydrous materials can trigger intermediate-depth earthquakes and form a double seismic zone in a subducting slab. Seismic anisotropy may provide a possible insight into intermediate-depth intraslab seismicity, because anisotropic proper...
