Dehydration melting of muscovite in metasedimentary sequences is the initially dominant
mechanism of granitic melt generation in orogenic hinterlands. In dry (vapour‐absent) crust …

The stimulation of shale reservoirs frequently involves significant shear failure, which is
crucial for creating fracture networks and enhancing permeability to boost production. As the …

Several theoretical studies indicate that a substantial fraction of the measured seismic
anisotropy could be interpreted as extrinsic anisotropy associated with compositional …

Abstract The Central Andes are characterized by one of the largest orogenic plateaus
worldwide. As a result, they are home to some of the thickest continental crust observed …

Gypsum, an anisotropic hydrous mineral, localizes strain through dehydration‐induced
embrittlement and hydrodynamic lubrication, affecting the deformation in active tectonic …

Seismic tomography is used to infer compositional variations and environmental conditions
in active subduction zones. In some regions, low P‐wave and S‐wave velocities and high …

As a petrofabric indicator, anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS) can potentially be
used to infer seismic properties of rocks, and in particular seismic anisotropy. To evaluate …

As seismic data from the lower crust becomes more readily available, it is important to link
seismic properties to the ongoing processes within lower crustal evolution. This includes …

The effects of preexisting fabrics on the flow laws and anisotropic deformation of rocks
require further study. We conducted triaxial compression experiments on a granitic mylonite …

Crystal preferred orientation (CPO) of high pressure metamorphic rocks is an important
contributor to seismic anisotropy in the subduction interface and continental crust. However …
