Seismology

We have a new preprint on the seismic structure beneath the Kii Peninsula, southwestern Japan, available on SSRN. While it’s not yet peer-reviewed, feel free to check it out if you’re interested!

Our new paper is publishded! We analyzed shear wave splitting from receiver functions in Shikoku Island, SW Japan, and along-dip variation of fast axes is clarified. Check it out!
