Summary The stable, Precambrian East European Platform adjoins the younger, tectonically
active regions of central and western Europe along a distinct crustal boundary, the Tornquist …

We discuss the use of a genetic algorithm (GA) to invert data for many acceptable solutions,
in contrast to inversion for a single,“optimum” solution. The GA is a directed search method …

Summary A new model, EUR-S91, of shear-wave velocity variations in the upper mantle
beneath central Europe and surrounding regions, down to a depth of 670km, is presented …

A set of two hundred shear-wave velocity models of the crust and uppermost mantle in
southeast Europe is determined by application of a sequence of methods for surface-waves …

We present a new, S-velocity model of the European upper mantle, constrained by
inversions of seismic waveforms from broad-band stations in Europe and surrounding …

A model of upper-mantle S-wave velocity and transverse anisotropy beneath northwestern
Europe is presented, based on regional surface wave observations. Group velocities for …

The primary indicators of lateral heterogeneity in the Earth are the slowness and azimuth of
incoming seismic signals. On a regional scale, surface waves in the upper mantle and crust …

Digital seismograms from 25 earthquakes located in the southeastern part of Europe,
recorded by three-component very broadband seismometers at the stations Vitosha …

We have detected what appear to be strong lateral variations in upper mantle shear-wave
velocities under Europe and western Eurasia. The evidence suggests that the Alpine belt of …

The upper mantle velocity structure beneath Europe is investigated by body-wave modelling
of broad-band seismograms from earthquakes in the eastern Mediterranean recorded by …
