What is the nature of flow in the mantle? How fast do waves travel anywhere on Earth? Where can radial anisotropy be robustly detected? Can we reconcile a broad spectrum of seismic data? What are the benefits? We use normal-mode splitting functions in addition to surface-wave phase anomalies, body-wave travel times and long-period waveforms to construct a three-dimensional model of anisotropic shear-wave velocity in the Earth's mantle. This is the first tomographic study to exploit the sensitivity of mode-splitting data to constrain radial anisotropy in the Earth's mantle jointly with several other types of data. Our modeling approach inverts for mantle velocity and anisotropy as well as transition-zone discontinuity topographies, and incorporates new crustal corrections for the splitting functions that are consistent with the nonlinear corrections we employ for the waveforms. Our preferred anisotropic model, S362ANI+M, is an update to the earlier model S362ANI, which did not include normal-mode splitting functions in its derivation. Feedback/Questions?

Refer cij in equation 11. This is our preferred global model of shear-wave velocity. In this model, radial anisotropy is confined to the uppermost mantle (that is, since the anisotropy is parameterized with only the four uppermost splines, it becomes very small below a depth of 250 km, and vanishes at 410 km). This is an updated version of S362ANI (Kustowski et al., 2008) which did not include normal modes in its derivation. Please note the stronger isotropic shear velocity anomalies in the transition zone. STW105 - reference model used in S362ANI+M. Described in Kustowski et al.

This is calculated from the spline coefficients at every 1 by 1 degree cell-centered pixel and at every ~25 km depth region from Moho to the core-mantle boundary and stored in extended pixel format (.epix) ASCII files.
