(3/4) Results show:

1. Cratons possess a shallow low velocity zone (LVZ) within a layer of positive radial anisotropy and a high velocity isotropic layer beneath

2. Cratons are formed in two stages shown by anisotropic structure and are later modified producing a LVZ and MLD

@joebrown2301 It was great to work with the student team that summer! I hope the PhD is going well 👍

[Chris Ogden @TheGoldenOldy]

Delighted to see that our paper on Crustal Structure within the Turkana Depression in the East African Rift System is now published. Many thanks to @IanBastowRSM @rita_kounoudis and our US, Ethiopian and Kenyan-based collaborators for their awesome work!

@SeismologyNews Thanks for the post!

[Alistair Boyce @alistair_boyce]

@derek_schutt Let me know what time you’ll be there, it would be great to catch up! I’m free after lunch 👍

[Alistair Boyce @alistair_boyce]

At #AGU22? Come by to discuss #craton radial anisotropy Monday morning at poster S12F-0198 (Theoretical and Computational Seismology III). ☕️🌎

@petercrouch @StatmanDave @OfficialClancy @StatmanDave @PeterCrouchPod what if the penalties are lost before the 5th taker's kick? What is the % of shootouts won/lost before 5 kicks each? Is it always a positive risk?

@SummaMeologica Hell yeh! Do we have any quantitative measuring devices on the stones or the brooms? 🤣

Ever struggled to explain map projections? this might help :)
