2. Seismic anisotropy as an indicator of mantle flow beneath the Himalayas and Tibet

Abstract

A change in seismic anisotropy is noticed along the Indus-Tsangpo suture (ITS) reflecting a change in the deformative forms at depth. This explains a ductile mantle flow in the north of the ITS and the piling of Indian and Tibetan lithospheres in the Himalayas. The high altitudes of the Himalayan region is due to the mechanical thickening of the crust and mantle flow.
