“…Existing studies of the crust and mantle beneath Alaska have been based on a variety of types of data and approaches, including seismic refraction and reflection profiling (e.g., Fuis et al, , ), receiver function analyses (e.g., Ferris et al, ; Miller et al, ; Miller & Moresi, ; O'Driscoll & Miller, ; Rondenay et al, ; Zhang et al, ), body wave tomography for isotropic and anisotropic structures (e.g., Eberhart‐Phillips et al, ; Gou et al, ; Martin‐Short et al, ; Tian & Zhao, ; Zhao et al, ), shear wave splitting studies (e.g., Christensen & Abers, ; Hanna & Long, ; Venereau et al, ; Wiemer et al, ; Yang & Fischer, ), ambient noise tomography (e.g., Ward, ), and earthquake surface wave tomography (e.g., Wang & Tape, ). Some studies combined multiple data sets.…”
