Geophysics
Anisotropy refers to the property of a material that exhibits different physical properties when measured along different directions. This concept is significant in geophysics as it influences how seismic waves propagate through the Earth, particularly in relation to the Earth's magnetic field and its origin, revealing how geological structures can impact magnetic fields differently based on their orientation and composition.
congrats on reading the definition of anisotropy. now let's actually learn it.
