Cover Story: Abundant twins in lawsonite were observed in lawsonite blueschists. The effect of lawsonite twinning on crystal preferred orientation (CPO) and seismic anisotropy of lawsonite was studied using the lawsonite blueschists from Alpine Corsica (France) and Sivrihisar Massif (Turkey). It was found that {110} twin in lawsonite produces a weak CPO of both [100] and [010] axes, but a strong alignment of [001] axes, inducing substantial seismic anisotropy reduction, especially for the maximum S-wave anisotropy in lawsonite and whole rocks by up to 3.67% and 1.46%, respectively. Lawsonite twinning needs to be considered when determining seismic anisotropy in the subducting oceanic crust in cold subduction zones. View this paper
