Studia Geophysica et Geodaetica Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Phase velocities of Rayleigh waves propagating along the Prague-Warsaw profile have been determined. A layered model of the Earth's crust and upper mantle, satisfying the observed dispersion of Rayleigh waves, has been derived. In constructing this model, the results of deep seismic soundings along international profile VII were also taken into account.
