The mantle’s interfaces – the core-mantle boundary and the lithosphere – may hold the key to understanding mantle motion, because of the seismic anisotropy present in these parts of the Earth.   This thesis contains a substantive introduction to the structure of the Earth, seismic anisotropy in the...
