f Shear-waves from 3-C ocean bottom seismographs indicative of anisotropy in the lower crust

This refraction study was performed in August 1988 by the Institute of Solid Earth Physics, University of Bergen, Norway in cooperation with the Hokkaido and Tokyo Universities, Japan. The purpose of the experiment was to map the crustal structure off Lofoten, northern Norway, from the outer part of the continental shelf to the oceanic crust, and to make use of all three components of the Ocean Bottom Seismographs (OBS) in a detailed shear-wave study. Twenty one 3-C OBSs were used along 8 profiles in a 3D grid.
