Description:
In recent years, several deep seismic investigations have been carried Out in the central and southern part of East Germany. In the present paper, the results for P-wave velocity distributions are shown and discussed. Some typical crustal features, such as low-velocity layers, were found in some cases. The Moho was found to ascend from the SE towards the NW, with some interruptions. For several profiles, the S-wave arrivals also were interpreted. The simultaneous evaluation of P- and S-wave velocities were used to obtain information on the behaviour of the elastic parameters Alpha and Gamma, respectively. The seismic models discussed in the present paper have been confirmed by modelling the gravity field, and the results have been published elsewhere.
