Shear wave splitting analysis to characterise lithospheric mantle anisotropy has been performed to provide better knowledge about lithospheric deformation and mantle fow beneath the Sunda–Banda arc transition, Indonesia. The tectonic setting of the study area is very complex characterised by the transition from subduction along Sunda arc to collision in Banda arc. The splitting measurements show lateral and vertical variation in the fast directions of the S-waves in this region. When the splitting results are analysed through 2D delay-time tomography and spatial averaging, systematic patterns in delay times and fast polarisation become more visible. In the subduction domain, the spatial averages of fast directions are dominated by two distinct fast polarisations: perpendicular and parallel to the plate motion for shallow and deep events, respectively. The results suggest that anisotropy in this area is not only controlled by anisotropic source related to the simple mantle fow model, but also by anisotropic fabric in the mantle deformed under infuence of high stresses, high water contents and low temperatures. In addition, there might also be contribution from the anisotropic body in the upper layer. In the collision domain, spatially averaged fast directions show mostly perpendicular to the plate motion for all deep levels. For shallow level in this region, this trend is mainly governed by the lithospheric deformation process due to the continent-arc collision as also shown by delay time tomographic inversion. For deeper part of the region, the result of tomographic inversion and spatial averaging reveals a high anisotropy followed by rotational pattern of fast directions in the north of Timor. We suggest that this pattern might be related to the induced mantle fow due to lateral tearing of the slab.
