1 Supporting Online Material Thinning and ow of Tibetan crust constrained by seismic anisotropy Nikolai M. Shapiro, Michael H. Ritzwoller, Peter Molnar 2, and Vadim Levin 3 Department ofphysics, University of Colorado at Boulder, USA 2 Department of Geological Sciences, Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Science (CIRES), University of Colorado at Boulder, USA 3 Department of Geological Sciences, Rutgers University, New Jersey, USA Data coverage and resolution Surface-wave coverage for the Tibetan region (g. S) is denser at intermediate periods (4 sec) than at longer periods. Intermediate periods are most sensitive to the Tibetan middle crustal structure. The average lateral resolution of the group velocity tomographic maps across the Tibetan region at those periods is about 2 km for both Rayleigh and Love waves. Finding an optimal parameterization for Tibetan crustal structure When inverting the surface-wave dispersion maps for the 3D shear velocity model we tested ve different parameterizations for Tibetan crustal structure: two isotropic and three radially anisotropic. During those tests, we set the mantle structure to that obtained from a global inversion (). The results of those ve inversions (table S) show that the parameterization with a radially anisotropic middle crust yields a root-mean-square mist that is nearly half of the other parameterizations. Therefore, although we cannot eliminate a small amount of anisotropy in either the upper or the lower crust, we conclude that strong mid-crustal radial anisotropy is required to explain the observed surface-wave dispersion. During the nal inversion, we selected the parameterization with a radially anisotropic middle crust and allowed the mantle structure to vary. Relation between crustal thinning and radial anisotropy We consider a horizontally isotropic crust attened in its vertical direction using a strain tensor given by: + 2 U = B C () 2 A, where is the amount of the crustal thinning. We consider a rock composed of mica crystals embedded in an isotropic matrix. In response to the vertical attening, the mica crystals rotate
2 and become oriented more horizontally. Rotation of an individual mica crystal relative to the vertical axis can be considered as a two-dimensional problem where the crystal is represented by a position vector ~r and its deformation can be written as: ~r + 2, A ~r (2) where ~r and ~ r are its initial and nal orientations, respectively. The relation between the components of ~r and ~ r can be written as: r x = j~rj cos r z = j~rj sin r x = j ~ r j cos r z = j ~ r j sin (3) where and are the initial and the nal angles between the crystal plane and the horizontal (g. S2). Combining equations (2) and (3) we obtain:, = arctan +:5 tan This equation governs the rotation of mica crystals in response to vertical attening. Mica-group minerals are monoclinic (table S2), but their symmetry system can be treated as approximately hexagonal (2,3). For crystals with arbitrary orientations, the elastic tensor c(; ) can be computed by applying simple transformations of the fourth-order tensors: (4) c nmop = ni mj ol pk c ijlk (5) where is a rotation matrix. We consider an initial system with an isotropic orientation of mica crystals and apply transformation (4) to it. The resulting Voigt and Reuss averages of the elastic tensor become: c voigt () = Z 2 2 c, reuss() = Z 2 2 Z =2 Z =2, c arctan +:5 tan, c arctan, +:5 tan ; sin dd (6) ; sin dd (7) We solved equations (6) and (7) numerically for biotite and muscovite and, then, estimated Voigt and Reuss averages in a deformed aggregate composed of biotite and muscovite embedded into an isotropic matrix: c voigt () =a bio c bio voigt()+a musc c musc voigt ()+a iso c iso (8) 2
3 c, reuss() =a bio [c bio reuss()], + a musc [c musc reuss()], + a iso [c iso ], (9) where a bio, a musc,anda iso are volumetric fractions for biotite, muscovite and the isotropic matrix, respectively. Finally, we formed the Voigt-Russ-Hill average: and used it to compute two shear wave velocities: c() = 2 (c voigt()+c reuss ()) () V SV () = V SH () = s c 2323 () s c 22 () () (2) where is density. In our computations, the density is 285 kg/m 3 and the rigidity of the isotropic matrix is 42 GPa. References. N.M. Shapiro, M.H. Ritzwoller, Geophys. J. Int. 5, 88-5 (22). 2. K.S. Aleksandrov, T.V.
