Abstract

Application of deep seismic methods to studies of the crust and lithospheric mantle receives considerable interest and the methods are constantly refined and new methods are developed, which allows the extension of studies to new subjects and regions. Deep seismic methods are applied to a long range of geoscientific subjects in research on the formation and development of crust and lithosphere in continental and oceanic environments. From being an experimental discipline some 30-40 years ago, a series of methods can now be applied almost routinely to research on the lithosphere. However, in many applications, the methods are used up-to their limits at the present technological state. Therefore, development of methods has high priority in the seismic community. This volume provides an overview of recent development of deep seismic techniques and their application to the imaging and probing of the continents and their margins.
