“…The velocity of 8.7 km s-l at 90-100 km depth derived here (Fig. 8) is lower than the value of 9.2kms-' determined in previous interpretations (Miller et al 1979(Miller et al , 1982. However, except for a velocity estimate of 8.8 km s-' at 94 km depth beneath the Arabian Shield (Prodehl 1985), the velocity derived here is at least 0.1-0.2 km s-l greater than those velocities which are usually determined to exist at 90-100 km depth (Prodehl 1984).…”

“…In contrast, in the two V-Z functions shown by Miller et al (1977Miller et al ( , 1978Miller et al ( , 1982 for the region between shot-points B and E , velocities of at least 6.5 km s-' firstly occur at depths of about 23 km in the case of shot-point BE and 36 km in the case of shot-point DE. A second difference is that in the present model a low velocity layer occurs beneath the whole of the main line in the upper crust (Fig.…”

“…Evidence plates defined by the seismic reflection data alone are for extensional deformation prior to collision is preserved sufficient enough to lead us to an interpretation. adjacent to the Alpine root zone in the lowermost crust of Alps than in the central Alps (Miller, Mueller & Perrier 1982).…”

“…The imprint of contemporary regional metamorphism may perhaps be seen as seismic low velocity channels in the middle and lower crust of active orogenic belts, owing to the elevation of pore pressure (e.g. present day European Alps ;Miller et al 1982). Such an interpretation requires to be supported by a much more comprehensive database of experimental seismic P and S wave velocity measurements at high temperatures with pore pressures than is presently available.…”
