which is mainly caused by the crystallographic preferred orientation (CPO) of olivine, the …

2.16 Seismic anisotropy of the deep Earth from a mineral and rock physics perspective

D Mainprice - Treatise on geophysics, 2010 - books.google.com
In this section the contribution of CPO to seismic anisotropy in the deep Earth with cases of
