From Figure 11.8, what is the approximate difference in speeds between two
vertically traveling qS waves in this material? Assuming that the upper mantle
contains an anisotropic layer with pure olivine aligned as in this plot, how thick
would the layer have to be to produce shear-wave splitting in vertical SKS waves
with a 2 s delay time between the split shear waves?
