REINTERPRETATION OF A WIDE-ANGLE REFLECTION FAN ACROSS THE CENTRAL ALPS

Within the framework of a new phase of crustal exploration in the Alpine range (by vertical reflection seismic) all existing seismic data (refraction-wide-angle reflection profiles and fans) have been reprocessed and reinterpreted. This study discusses the results of the reinterpretation of the fan ZE (recorded in 1 986 ), which crosses the Central Atps east of the European Geotraverse (EGT). The geophones (3 components) were positioned 130 km east of the shot-point C (on the EGT); therefore, the ''mirror'' of the supercritical reflections from the Moho is located approximately to the north of the Isco lake.
