Journal ArticleDOI
Upper-mantle flow beneath French Polynesia from shear wave splitting
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated upper-mantle flow beneath the South Pacific by analyzing shear wave splitting parameters at eight permanent long-period and broadband seismic stations and 10 broad-band stations deployed in French Polynesia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Crustal and uppermost mantle structure variation beneath La Réunion hotspot track
Fabrice R. Fontaine,Guilhem Barruol,Hrvoje Tkalčić,Ingo Wölbern,Georg Rümpker,Thomas Bodin,Méric Haugmard +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used receiver function techniques to determine a shear wave velocity profile through the crust and uppermost mantle beneath La Reunion, but also at other seismic stations located on the hotspot track, to investigate the plume and lithosphere interaction and its evolution through time.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterizing swells in the southern Pacific from seismic and infrasonic noise analyses
Guilhem Barruol,Dominique Reymond,Fabrice R. Fontaine,Olivier Hyvernaud,Vincent Maurer,Keitapu Maamaatuaiahutapu +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the power spectral density (PSD) analyses of the seismic data recorded in French Polynesia show clear peaks in the 0.05-0.10 Hz band (periods between 10 and 20 s), which corresponds to swell frequencies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tracking major storms from microseismic and hydroacoustic observations on the seafloor
Céline Davy,Guilhem Barruol,Fabrice R. Fontaine,Karin Sigloch,Karin Sigloch,Eléonore Stutzmann +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a network of 57 ocean bottom seismometers (OBS) deployed around La Reunion Island in the southwest Indian Ocean to investigate the noise generated in the secondary microseismic band as a tropical cyclone moved over the network.
Journal ArticleDOI
Upper mantle anisotropy beneath Australia and Tahiti from P wave polarization: Implications for real‐time earthquake location
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report measurements of long-period P wave polarization (P pol) in Australia and Tahiti made by combining modeling of the polarization deviation and harmonic analysis.
