Journal ArticleDOI
Wave propagation in a multiple‐scattering upper mantle—observations and modelling
TL;DR: In this article, a high-frequency teleseismic P, which travels with a group velocity of 8.0 km s-l out to distances of several thousands of kilometres, is observed.
Journal ArticleDOI
World Stress Map of the Earth: a key to tectonic processes and technological applications
Karl Fuchs,Birgit Müller +1 more
TL;DR: The impact of the WSM is pointed out: in the context of global tectonics, in seismic hazard quantification and in a wide range of technological problems in industrial applications such as oil reservoir management and stability of underground openings (tunnels, boreholes and waste disposal sites).
Journal ArticleDOI

Gordon R. Keller,C. Prodehl,J. Mechie,Karl Fuchs,M.A. Khan,Peter Maguire,Walter D. Mooney,U. Achauer,Paul M. Davis,Robert P. Meyer,Lawrence W. Braile,I O Nyambok,George A. Thompson +12 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented the results of an integrated seismic-refraction/teleseismic survey (KRISP 90) to study the deep structure of the Kenya rift down to depths of 100-150 km.
Journal ArticleDOI
The KRISP 94 lithospheric investigation of southern Kenya — the experiments and their main results

TL;DR: A series of geophysical experiments was undertaken in 1993-1995 (KRISP 94) to study the lithospheric structure of the southern Kenya rift down to depths of greater than 100 km, with special emphasis on the Chyulu Hills, a complex of volcanic centres on the eastern flank of the rift.
